This was intended to be a small followup for https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712, but...here we are. 1. Our docs currently use `slug` as the entire URL, which makes refactoring tricky (see https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712). Instead, this PR attempts to make future refactoring easier by using slugs as an extension of the section. (Hugo terminology) - What the above boils down to is this PR attempts to use directory organization as URL management. e.g. `usage/comparison.en-us.md` -> `en-us/usage/comparison/`, `usage/packages/overview.en-us.md` -> `en-us/usage/packages/overview/` - Technically we could even remove `slug`, as Hugo defaults to using filename, however at least with this PR it means `slug` only needs to be the name for the **current file** rather than an entire URL 2. This PR adds appropriate aliases (redirects) for pages, so anything on the internet that links to our docs should hopefully not break. 3. A minor nit I've had for a while, renaming `seek-help` to `support`. It's a minor thing, but `seek-help` has a strange connotation to it. 4. The commits are split such that you can review the first which is the "actual" change, and the second is added redirects so that the first doesn't break links elsewhere. --------- Signed-off-by: jolheiser <john.olheiser@gmail.com>

## Setting up the repository indexer
|
|
|
|
Gitea can search through the files of the repositories by enabling this function in your [`app.ini`](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/config-cheat-sheet/):
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
[indexer]
|
|
; ...
|
|
REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED = true
|
|
REPO_INDEXER_PATH = indexers/repos.bleve
|
|
UPDATE_BUFFER_LEN = 20
|
|
MAX_FILE_SIZE = 1048576
|
|
REPO_INDEXER_INCLUDE =
|
|
REPO_INDEXER_EXCLUDE = resources/bin/**
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please bear in mind that indexing the contents can consume a lot of system resources, especially when the index is created for the first time or globally updated (e.g. after upgrading Gitea).
|
|
|
|
### Choosing the files for indexing by size
|
|
|
|
The `MAX_FILE_SIZE` option will make the indexer skip all files larger than the specified value.
|
|
|
|
### Choosing the files for indexing by path
|
|
|
|
Gitea applies glob pattern matching from the [`gobwas/glob` library](https://github.com/gobwas/glob) to choose which files will be included in the index.
|
|
|
|
Limiting the list of files prevents the indexes from becoming polluted with derived or irrelevant files (e.g. lss, sym, map, etc.), so the search results are more relevant. It can also help reduce the index size.
|
|
|
|
`REPO_INDEXER_EXCLUDE_VENDORED` (default: true) excludes vendored files from index.
|
|
|
|
`REPO_INDEXER_INCLUDE` (default: empty) is a comma separated list of glob patterns to **include** in the index. An empty list means "_include all files_".
|
|
`REPO_INDEXER_EXCLUDE` (default: empty) is a comma separated list of glob patterns to **exclude** from the index. Files that match this list will not be indexed. `REPO_INDEXER_EXCLUDE` takes precedence over `REPO_INDEXER_INCLUDE`.
|
|
|
|
Pattern matching works as follows:
|
|
|
|
- To match all files with a `.txt` extension no matter what directory, use `**.txt`.
|
|
- To match all files with a `.txt` extension _only at the root level of the repository_, use `*.txt`.
|
|
- To match all files inside `resources/bin` and below, use `resources/bin/**`.
|
|
- To match all files _immediately inside_ `resources/bin`, use `resources/bin/*`.
|
|
- To match all files named `Makefile`, use `**Makefile`.
|
|
- Matching a directory has no effect; the pattern `resources/bin` will not include/exclude files inside that directory; `resources/bin/**` will.
|
|
- All files and patterns are normalized to lower case, so `**Makefile`, `**makefile` and `**MAKEFILE` are equivalent.
