Miniflux Indexer

中文版

• Deployment
• Configurations

Index miniflux entries with sego for better full-text search support.

Deployment

Requirements:

• PostgresQL >= 9.6

First, you should check your miniflux database and ensure it's Collate is C.UTF-8 by using the following command:

psql -l

The output likes the following table:

                                      List of databases
       Name       |    Owner    | Encoding | Collate |  Ctype  |      Access privileges
------------------+-------------+----------+---------+---------+-----------------------------
 miniflux         | miniflux    | UTF8     | C.UTF-8 | C.UTF-8 |
------------------+-------------+----------+---------+---------+-----------------------------

If it's not C.UTF-8, you should convert it to C.UTF-8 or the indexer won't work.

Then you need to create a table named index_info for storing indexer-related information. It's highly recommended using a separate database or schema from miniflux.

You may create a new database using the following command:

createdb -O miniflux miniflux_indexer

Then use migrate to execute migrations:

migrate -database $DATABASE_URL -path ./migrations up

Then you can get miniflux-indexer running by using the following command:

miniflux-indexer start --database-url $DATABASE_URL --miniflux-database-url $MINIFLUX_DATABASE_URL

The first run may consume more than 1 GB of memory, please ensure you have enough memory.

Configurations

Miniflux-indexer can be configured via environment variables or command line arguments. The configuration options can be viewed by using miniflux-indexer start --help and miniflux-indexer --help.

Here is a sample .env file:

DATABASE_URL='postgres://miniflux:miniflux@127.0.0.1/miniflux_indexer?sslmode=disable'
MINIFLUX_DATABASE_URL='postgres://miniflux:miniflux@@127.0.0.1/miniflux?sslmode=disable'
INDEXER_BATCH_SIZE=50
LOG_LEVEL=info 
LOG_FORMAT=human
# extra configuration for controlling database driver logging, default is warn
PGX_LOG_LEVEL=error

More database driver options can be specified by add query parameters to database urls, including:

• pool_max_conns: integer greater than 0
• pool_min_conns: integer 0 or greater
• pool_max_conn_lifetime: duration string
• pool_max_conn_idle_time: duration string
• pool_health_check_period: duration string
