Portable search tool for local files using Elasticsearch.
- Incremental search (Search as you type)
- Extracts text from common file types (Mp3 tags, picture sizes, content of docx, pdf, xlsx files etc.)
- Portable installation
- Generate thumbnails for images and videos
- Once indexed, no access to the files is required to search (useful for cold storage)
- Consult videos/GIFs/Images/audio directly in the search result page
- Can be configured to take very low disk space or to store maximum metadata/content
Java and python3 are required.
Once the web server is running, you can connect to the search interface by typing localhost:8080 in your browser.
