lol. I'm experimenting with JS based search for my site... my initial build for elasticlunr.js without(!) the body text is 7.8MB
#
petermolnar
is that reasonable to load in the browser for every visitor, I wonder?
#
petermolnar
(hell no, I'm going to stick to sqlite and some extremely simple server side search)
#
tantek
7.8MB for indexing nothing?
#
tantek
or just names & dates of posts?
#
petermolnar
no, that's the full index of the full content
#
petermolnar
but without storing the content
#
petermolnar
with the content it's 9MB
#
petermolnar
which makes the whole thing "wha?"
#
petermolnar
this thing
#
petermolnar
if I do a similar approach in SQlite with the FTS5 engine, the SQLite file is 4MB
#
petermolnar
on the other hand...
#
petermolnar
if I could drop all the code blocks before passing it to the generator
#
petermolnar
that might make a lot of sense

petermolnar
...whee, down to 7.1MB...

note to self: PHP 7.0 comes with SQLite 3.16 which doesn't yet have FTS5.
#
petermolnar
but it does FTS4 - meaning I can make an sqlite fts search db from python, render everything from python, and create a php search query parser from python - embrace the abomination

Webmention #oldaily https://www.downes.ca/post/68359 I've noticed an uptick in the buzz on webmentions recently. According to the W3C page, a Webmention is "a simple way to notify any URL when you mention it on your site.

that "no datasets" error is under your Xray project

right but it thinks i'm running things in the context of xray

aha ok so then it's working. if you click "run query"
