Good Lucene .NET alternative for ASP.NET website [closed]

Question

Are there any good alternatives for Lucene .NET to use in a ASP.NET website?

I want to index XML-, TXT-, PDF- and DOC-files.

Thanks!

Answer 1

I couldn't say if this is better than Lucene.NET but you might want to look at https://searcharoo.codeplex.com/.

Answer 2

This is late, but i think that Lucene.Net is now compatible with Medium Trust

see about midway in this post :

Update

Adding this note for anyone else who finds this : The final resolution of the issue is noted below. Short version : Lucene.Net officially runs under Medium Trust.

Answer 4

Searcharoo has been mentioned. https://searcharoo.codeplex.com/ It's fully C#/.NET (edit - original domain no longer accessible. The codeplex link is to the searcharoo source code and the project has not had any update since 2012).

Also from this link:

• Whoosh (purely Python, no C#/.NET bindings)
• zettair (C; no C#/.NET bindings)
• indri (bindings for Java, PHP, C++, but not C#/.NET)
• Sphinx (for MySQL or PostgreSQL, or XML pipes)
• Xapian (C++; has C#/.NET bindings)
