LucyX::Remote::SearchServer - Make a Searcher remotely accessible.
my $searcher = Lucy::Search::IndexSearcher->new( index => '/path/to/index' ); my $search_server = LucyX::Remote::SearchServer->new( searcher => $searcher ); $search_server->serve( port => 7890 );
By aggregating several SearchClients under a ClusterSearcher, the cost of searching what might have been a prohibitively large monolithic index can be distributed across multiple nodes, each with its own, smaller index.
my $search_server = LucyX::Remote::SearchServer->new( searcher => $searcher, # required );
Constructor. Takes hash-style parameters.
searcher - the Searcher that the SearchServer will wrap.
$search_server->serve( port => 7890, # required );
Open a listening socket on localhost and wait for SearchClients to connect.
port - the port on localhost that the server should open and listen on.
my $status = $search_server->serve_rpc($sock);
Handle a single RPC from socket $sock. Returns 'done' if the connection should be closed. Returns 'terminate' if the server should shut down. Returns 'continue' if the server should continue to handle requests from this client.
