Where to download alfresco search services?

[peter_horvath]

The link here: https://www.alfresco.com/thank-you/thank-you-downloading-alfresco-community-edition  doesn't contain anything. There only

alfresco-content-services-community-distribution-6.1.2-ga.zip

can be downloaded, but I need also

alfresco-search-services-1.3.x.zip and alfresco-file-transfer-receiver-6.2.1.zip

to install the community edition.

Kindly regards,

I could finally find it in your public nexus repository here: Index of /repositories/public/org/alfresco/alfresco-search-services/1.3.0 

Please, support the container-less solutions better. I simply can't see the reason, why should I create a virtual machine only for a single daemon. Why it can't be a single war? Or a command-line jar?

Starting with 6.0 the releases are shipping as Docker containers. As you've discovered, Alfresco is putting the effort around shipping containers rather than individual pieces of the platform. You can get the Alfresco Search Services container from Docker Hub here: Docker Hub

Thank you very much the information.

I hope, maybe the more direct options (i.e. no containers) could be also better utilized.

I don't think Alfresco has any closed source code they are trying to hide. The source code is open and available, even the enterprise-only source. Maybe you could be more specific about what is being hidden?

Also, in the above thread we've been talking about deployment and installation, not the source code. The source is on GitHub.
