Searching Options

[tonizz]

I have to include a search box in a portal that has a part of contents and a part of database. I would like it to search in both sides. I've been what alfresco provides. It looks that alfresco has lucene, I havent  used it yet and It looks very powerful and complex but I would like to use some simpler and easier, so do you know if is there another choice??? The more important for me is to search in the part of contents that are html files.

Thanks!

Depending on what you want to do the Lucene search in Alfresco can be very simple indeed - it gets more complex only as you do more complex things. The Lucene search to get "all objects that contain the text 'company'" is as simple as:

TEXT:company

It gets more complex from there It's quite easy to restrict to a mimetype:
