NAME
trackerd - indexer daemon for tracker search tool
SYNOPSIS
trackerd [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
Trackerd provides both a powerful indexer and an extensible metadata
database. It indexes files including the text contents and any
available metadata to provide fast search services.
By default, trackerd will index all files in a user’s home directory
(with the exception of hidden files). This can be overridden by
specifying one or more directories to be indexed instead in the
configuration file ($HOME/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg) and/or by using
the --include-dir option to specify other directories to be indexed.
OPTIONS
-?, --help
A brief help message including some examples.
-e, --exclude-dir=/PATH/DIR
Specifies a directory to be excluded from indexing (including
all subdirectories). Can be repeated to exclude more than one
directory.
-i, --include-dir=/PATH/DIR
Specifies a directory to be included for indexing. All non-
hidden subdirectories of the specified directory will also be
indexed. If this param is set then the user’s home directory is
no longer indexed by default (you can still add the home
directory with this option).
-c, --crawl-dir=/PATH/DIR
Specify directories to crawl. Crawling of directories means
index every indexable content but do not watch for directory or
file changes.
-n, --no-indexing
Prevent trackerd from indexing and watching. Searching is still
possible.
-v, --verbosity=value
Makes trackerd log/print more information. Value can be one of 0
- show only errors, 1 - show only minimal output, 2 - show
detailed output and 3 - show debug output (don’t do this, unless
you know what you are doing).
-t, --throttle=value
Value to throttle indexing. Value must be in range 0-20, with
lower values increasing indexing speed.
-m, --low-memory
Minimise memory usage. Note that this may slow down indexing.
-s, --initial-sleep=value
Set the initial sleep time in seconds. This is the time trackerd
waits at startup before indexing.
-l, --language=value
Language to use for stemmer and stop words list (ISO 639-1 2
characters code).
-R, --reindex
This forces trackerd to re-index all watched files and
directories. Since every watched directory and any previously
indexed file has to be read and processed again, this may
degrade the whole system performance, see also --throttle.
-f, --fatal-errors
Makes any errors fatal, i.e. forces abortion of trackerd. This
switch is only useful for debugging.
FILES

session.
