TLDR Simonas inquires about using ZincSearch for PDF file indexing and searching. Prabhat suggests using an external program to read PDF contents and then ingesting the data with ZincSearch API.
ZincSearch does not have native functionality to index pdf files. You will need an external program that can read the pdf file contents and then use ZincSearch API to ingest them which will allow you to us ethe search thereafter.
ok, thanks, I can do this, I have some solutions in mind to read papers
awesome. then read the files and simply call the _bulk aPI to ingest the data -
or
will do PoC and let you know, currently just doing research on technologies
