kosearch – Zend Lucene Search module for Kohana framework

I’ve finally got round to releasing kosearch – a Kohana search module. It’s an implementation of Zend (Lucene) Search, a file-based search/index solution. kosearch provides a simple way to index and search Models. It’s perfect for a web site that might contain news, products etc. kosearch also exposes the underlying Zend libraries so that other things can be indexed – PDFs, web pages, Word docs etc.

The module comes complete with a demo and details of how to use the module. These can also be found online, on the demo page.

The module is available for download on github.

The kosearch module has been written for, and tested against Kohana 2.3.4.

All comments and feedback appreciated
