Build Index

This form allows you to index the tables in your database so that they will be searchable using Dataface's full-text natural language search.

Generally you only want tables that you consider to be entities to be searchable. You usually won't want to index your join tables, nor will you want to index supplementary tables like Dataface's __history tables.

Before you can index your tables, you must enable indexing in the conf.ini file and indicate there which tables are allowed to be indexed. You can do this by adding an [_index] section to your conf.ini file as follows:

[_index]
People=1
Users=1
News=1
				

The above example would enable indexing on the People, Users, and News tables.
