Index a new source code folder

First we have to analyse all the files we want to have searchable. To create a lucene index out of the files you can use the following commands:

REM CodeSearcher.exe -m=index --ip=PathToStoreIndex --sp=PathOfSourceCode

REM Index files of type (cs, csproj, xml) of folder "D:\repository\project" 
REM and store resulting index in folder "D:\Index"
CodeSearcher.exe -m=index --ip=D:\Index --sp=D:\repository\project
REM Index files of Type (json and xml) of folder "D:\repository\project"
REM and store resulting index in folder "D:\IndexJsonOnly"
CodeSearcher.exe -m=index --ip=D:\IndexJsonXmlOnly --sp=D:\repository\project --fe=".json,.xml"

Use index to search containing word

After indexing we can use the index to find the files and linenumbers containing the searched word, very fast.

REM CodeSearcher.exe -m==search --ip=PathToStoreIndex --sw=WordToSearch

REM search word "class" in index stored under "D:\Index"
CodeSearcher.exe -m=search --ip=D:\Index --sw="class"
REM search word "port" in index stored under "D:\IndexJsonXmlOnly" show first 100 hits
CodeSearcher.exe -m=search --ip="C:\IndexXmlOnly" --sw="port" --hits=100
