$HOME/.config/tracker/tracker-fts.cfg
DESCRIPTION
Tracker's configuration is built on top of GSettings, part of GLib.
This means that there is a proper schema for configurations and they
can be viewed (normally) using the dconf-editor tool.
Tracker also allows switching from the GSettings database, used by most
(cross) desktop applications, to a key/value formatted files (like Mi‐
crosoft's INI format). To do this, the environment variable
TRACKER_USE_CONFIG_FILES must be defined before running the application
using that configuration.
So where is this configuration? Well, normally they're stored in
$HOME/.config/tracker/, however, default values are not stored to con‐
fig files, only different values are. This man page describes what keys
and values can be used.
See EXAMPLES for a general overview.
OPTIONS
max-word-length=30
Words with more characters than this length will be ignored by the indexer.
Values range from 0 to 200.
max-words-to-index=10000
Indexer will read only this maximum number of words from a single document.
enable-stemmer=false
Simplify the words to their root to provide more results. E.g. 'shelves' and 'shelf' to 'shel'
enable-unaccent=true
Translate accented characters to the equivalent unaccented. E.g. 'Idéa' to 'Idea' for improved matching.
ignore-numbers=true
If enabled, numbers will not be indexed.
ignore-stop-words=true
If enabled, the words listed in the stop-words list are ignored. E.g. common words like 'the', 'yes', 'no', etc.
EXAMPLES
The top level group is "General". The default configuration (if saved
to tracker-fts.cfg), would look like:
[General]
max-word-length=30;
max-words-to-index=10000;
enable-stemmer=false;
enable-unaccent=true;
ignore-numbers=true;
ignore-stop-words=true;
