Introduction
Global Search will have the feature of searching keywords within the entire Moodle site across modules keeping the security intact. It will also be able to search for keywords from externally attached files. (PPTX, PDF, etc.)
Installation
For using Global Search, users will have to install the PHP Solr PECL extension on server.
Following are the two dependencies of the extension:
- CURL extension (libxml2 2.6.26 or later is required)
- LIBXML extension (libcurl 7.15.0 or later is required)
Test whether the required extensions are installed or not by executing the following in a php file (Remember to delete the file as it has important information about your system):
echo phpinfo();
If the system does not have required versions of libcurl or libxml libraries, follow the step given below:
- For libcurl:
wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.19.6.tar.gz tar -zxvf curl-7.19.6.tar.gz cd curl-7.19.6 sudo ./configure --prefix=/root/custom/software sudo make sudo make install
- For libxml:
wget ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/libxml2-2.7.6.tar.gz
tar -zxvf libxml2-2.7.6.tar.gz
cd libxml2-2.7.6
sudo ./configure --prefix=/root/custom/software
sudo make
sudo make install
Next, you will have to clone the following repository for Solr 4.x:
git clone https://github.com/ukaszkujawa/php-pecl-solr.git cd php-pecl-solr/ ./configure
