Indexing documents
Leave feedback
Documents can be added to the search network using the Add method of the Indexer class.
The first parameter of the Add method is an array of documents to be added. Currently, documents created from a stream or from a structure are supported.
The second parameter of the Add method is an array of optional passwords for opening added documents.
The third parameter of the Add method is the indexing options object.
The following code example demonstrates adding documents from a stream.
C#
Stream[] streams = new Stream[filePaths.Length];
Document[] documents = new Document[filePaths.Length];
string[] passwords = new string[filePaths.Length];
for (int i = 0; i < filePaths.Length; i++)
{
string filePath = filePaths[i];
DateTime modificationDate = File.GetLastWriteTime(filePath);
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(filePath);
string extension = Path.GetExtension(filePath);
Stream stream = File.OpenRead(filePath);
streams[i] = stream;
Document document = Document.CreateFromStream(
fileName,
modificationDate,
extension,
stream);
documents[i] = document;
}
Indexer indexer = node.Indexer;
IndexingOptions options = new IndexingOptions();
options.UseRawTextExtraction = false;
options.ImageIndexingOptions.EnabledForSeparateImages = true;
options.ImageIndexingOptions.EnabledForEmbeddedImages = true;
options.ImageIndexingOptions.EnabledForContainerItemImages = true;
options.OcrIndexingOptions.EnabledForSeparateImages = true;
options.OcrIndexingOptions.EnabledForEmbeddedImages = true;
options.OcrIndexingOptions.EnabledForContainerItemImages = true;
indexer.Add(documents, passwords, options);
for (int i = 0; i < streams.Length; i++)
{
streams[i].Close();
}
