							|  | Recoll_ is a desktop full-text search tool based on Xapian.  By itself Recoll_
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | does not offer WEB or API access, this can be achieved using recoll-webui_

							|  | Configuration
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | =============
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | You must configure the following settings:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ``base_url``:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   Location where recoll-webui can be reached.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ``mount_prefix``:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   Location where the file hierarchy is mounted on your *local* filesystem.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ``dl_prefix``:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   Location where the file hierarchy as indexed by recoll can be reached.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ``search_dir``:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   Part of the indexed file hierarchy to be search, if empty the full domain is
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   searched.
 |

							|  | #. the Recoll search inteface can be reached at https://recoll.example.org/ and
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | #. the contents of this filesystem can be reached though https://download.example.org/reference
