Description
Whenever you are indexing a large set of individual urls or have more than a few items to
add to the UrlList
directive,
it is more convenient to use UrlListFile rather than UrlList
.
The argument must be a list of files with absolute paths or relative to the
directory that Alkaline is run from. Each file contains a list of urls, each
url must be on a single line.
Alkaline will reload the lists of urls at each full indexing roundtrip. You can create your own tools that populate
a file pointed by this directive while Alkaline is indexing; which is simpler than writing a full asearch.cnf file.
Each url is treated as if it was written part of the list defined by the UrlList directive.
To index a large set of individual urls, you can use the UrlListFile directive along
with a Depth
setting of 0.
Thus, you can create a small tool that allows users to add their sites to the Alkaline index from a web page - it
will simply append the requested url to a file pointed by UrlListFile.
