• Overview

[[http://travis-ci.org/basho/riak_search][Travis-CI]] :: [[https://secure.travis-ci.org/basho/riak_search.png]]

The =riak_search= OTP application provides [[Riak][https://github.com/basho/riak]] with the capability to act as a /text search engine/ similar to Apache's Lucene. Previously Riak Search was a release in it's own right. Since then Basho has decided it would be easier for our users if Search was simply a set of functionality that can be enabled via a config option. For that reason, if you want to use Search you'll have to build a Riak release and enable it.

• Enabling Search

In order to enable the =riak_search= app in your Riak cluster you have to modify the =etc/app.config= file. Search for the text =riak_search= and then change ={enabled, false}= to ={enabled, true}=. The Search portion of your =app.config= will look something like this.

#+BEGIN_SRC {riak_search, [ {enabled, true}, ]}, #+END_SRC
