Recoll Homebrew Formula

Recoll is a full-text search tool for Unix/Linux systems. This repository contains the Homebrew formula for Recoll, allowing you to easily install and manage Recoll on macOS using Homebrew.

Installation

To install Recoll using Homebrew, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Make sure you have Homebrew installed. If not, you can install it by following the instructions at brew.sh.
  3. Tap into this repository by running the following command:
    brew tap nailuoGG/recoll
        
  4. Install Recoll by running the following command:

    We can install pre-compiled versions of the software, and these files are sourced from the official documentation: https://www.lesbonscomptes.com/recoll/pages/recoll-macos.html.

    Please note that the packages from the official source are not digitally signed.

    brew install --cask recoll
        

    This repository doesn’t offer an option to compile from source because it requires QT, and setting up the build environment on the macOS command line is complicate.

  5. After the installation is complete, you can run Recoll by typing `recoll` in the terminal.

Usage

Recoll provides a powerful command-line interface for searching and managing your indexed documents. You can find detailed information on how to use Recoll in the official Recoll documentation.

Here are a few common commands to get you started:

  • To start indexing your documents, use the following command:
    recollindex
        
  • To search for a specific term, use the following command:
    recoll -t <term>
