Creating a search tool for ColdFusion applications

The three main tasks in creating a search tool for your ColdFusion application are:

Create a collection.

Index the collection.

Design a search interface.

You can perform each task programmatically—that is, by writing CFML code. Alternatively, you can use the

ColdFusion Administrator to create and index a collection.

Creating a collection with the ColdFusion Administrator

Use the following procedure to quickly create a collection with the ColdFusion Administrator:

In the ColdFusion Administrator, select Data & Services > Verity Collections.

Enter a name for the collection; for example, DemoDocs.

Enter a path for the directory location of the new collection, for example, C:\CFusion\verity\collections\.

By default in the server configuration, ColdFusion stores collections in cf_root\verity\collections\ in Windows and

in cf_root/verity/collections on UNIX. In the multiserver configuration, the default location for collections is

cf_webapp_root/verity/collections. In the J2EE configuration, the default location for collections is

verity_root/verity/collections, where verity_root is the directory in which you installed Verity.

Note: This is the location for the collection, not for the files that you search.

(Optional) Select a language other than English for the collection from the Language drop-down list.
