Ubuntu Manpage: tracker-store - database indexer and query daemon

Provided by: tracker_0.16.5-0ubuntu0.2_amd64

NAME

       tracker-store - database indexer and query daemon

SYNOPSIS

       tracker-store [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       tracker-store  provides  both  a powerful database daemon which allows clients to query or
       update their data using the highly descriptive SPARQL language.

       tracker-store does not do any file crawling or any mining of data  itself,  instead  other
       processes do that and serves as a daemon waiting for such requests from application miners
       like tracker-miner-fs.

OPTIONS

       -?, --help
              A brief help message including some examples.

       -V, --version
              Returns the version of this binary.

       -v, --verbosity={0|1|2|3}
              Sets the logging level, 0=errors, 1=minimal, 2=detailed, 3=debug.

       -r, --force-reindex
              This forces tracker-store to remove databases and to recreate fresh databases ready
              for  data  insertion  from  the  miners. For more information about the miners, see
              tracker-miner-fs.

       -m, --low-memory
              This changes the behavior of the database manager and some other parts of  tracker-
              store  to  be  optimized  for  lower memory systems by lowering database connection
              cache sizes and page sizes for example. This may slow down indexing performance.

       -n, --readonly-mode
              This starts tracker-store in a mode which disables writing to  the  database.  Only
              SPARQL read requests can be serviced if this option is used.

ENVIRONMENT

TRACKER_DB_ONTOLOGIES_DIR
This is the directory which tracker uses to load the .ontology files from. If unset
it will default to the correct place. This is used mainly for testing purposes.

TRACKER_LANGUAGE_STOP_WORDS_DIR
This is the directory which tracker uses to load the stop words dictionaries from.
If unset it will default to the correct place. This is used mainly for testing
purposes.

TRACKER_STORE_MAX_TASK_TIME
This is maximum time allowed for a process to finish before interruption happens.
The actual moment of interruption depends also on the frequency of checks. The
value 0 indicates no interruption. This environment variable is used mainly for
testing purposes.

TRACKER_STORE_SELECT_CACHE_SIZE / TRACKER_STORE_UPDATE_CACHE_SIZE
Tracker caches database statements which occur frequently to make subsequent repeat
queries much faster. The cache size is set to 100 by default for each type (select
and update queries). This must be at least 2 as a minimum, any less and a value of
3 is used instead. The number represents the number of cached statements to keep
around. This environment variable is used mainly for testing purposes.

TRACKER_PRAGMAS_FILE
Tracker has a fixed set of PRAGMA settings for creating its SQLite connection.
With this environment variable pointing to a text file you can override these
settings. The file is a \n separated list of SQLite queries to execute on any newly
created SQLite connection in tracker-store.

TRACKER_DISABLE_MEEGOTOUCH_LOCALE
If Tracker is compiled with meegotouch locale management support, setting this
variable in the environment will disable retrieving the locale from GConf, and the
standard locale settings will be used instead.

TRACKER_USE_LOG_FILES
Don't just log to stdout and stderr, but to log files too which are kept in
$HOME/.local/share/tracker/. This came into effect in 0.15.3 and 0.16.0. After this
version of Tracker, logging to file (usually useful for debugging) can only be done
by declaring this environment variable.

TRACKER_USE_CONFIG_FILES
Don't use GSettings, instead use a config file similar to how settings were saved
in 0.10.x. That is, a file which is much like an .ini file. These are saved to
$HOME/.config/tracker/
