beagle-build-index [options] <index_path> <path> [path path path]

R beagle-build-index , is a tool designed for building static indexes outside of the Beagle daemon.

Running R beagle-build-index by hand is of use for those wishing to create and build static indexes used by the Beagle daemon. The static indexes can be helpful in many cases but most notably used as system-wide indexes shared by all users, and as a way for system-administrators to run indexing on a central server in a network environment.

R beagle-build-index will index the data specified by the path arguments and create an index in the index_path directory. If a suitable index is found in the index directory, if will automatically append data to the index if the file at hand has been modified since it was last indexed. If it can't find a suitable index (non-existant or version-mismatch) is will purge the directory recursively.

The R beagle-build-index tool is not intended to be invoked by the standard user.

R beagle-build-index takes the following options

--recursive

--debug

--cache-text

--allow-pattern [pattern]

--deny-pattern [pattern]

--remap [path1:path2]
