Add Manticore Search to MacPorts

General Discussions - English
1

Manicore Search is currently maintained for Homebrew users in Mac; however, it currently isn’t available for MacPorts. There are users using MacPorts who may find this convenient (like in brew install manticore ? · Issue #27 · manticoresoftware/manticoresearch · GitHub).

There’s a MacPort port for Sphinx Search but it’s outdated (2.2.11):

Is there a chance that we offer this in MacPorts?

Hi. Would be nice to have. Do you have experience with preparing a MacPort? Your contribution would be highly appreciated.

@Sergey, unfortunately, I don’t have experience in MacPort other than just being a user of it.

Just for reference for someone who will create the MacPorts Portfile. I manage to build the searchd and indexer in /opt/local/bin based on macports/macports-ports/blob/master/textproc/sphinx/Portfile.

I’ve commented several lines and limited it to MariaDB. Put that to my local MacPorts repository. Hopefully someone may find it helpful and fix/enhance it before publishing it.

description         Manticore search is a full-text search engine

long_description    Manticore search is a full-text search engine, meant to provide \
                    fast, size-efficient and relevant fulltext search \
                    functions to other applications. Sphinx was specially \
                    designed to integrate well with SQL databases and \
                    scripting languages. Currently built-in data sources \
                    support fetching data either via direct connection to \
                    MySQL or PostgreSQL, or from an XML pipe.
