2.4. Using Beagle WEB browser plugins
498
Beagle is a concurrent desktop indexer, built on Lucene and the
499
Mono project (C#), for which a number of add-on browser plugins
500
were written. These work by copying visited web pages to an
501
indexing queue directory, which the indexer then processes.

Especially, there is a Firefox extension.

If, for any reason, you so happen to prefer Recoll to Beagle, you
504
can still use the browser plugins (they are written in Javascript
505
and completely independant of C#, Beagle, Lucene...). Recoll can
506
process the Beagle queue directory. Of course, this supposes that
505
can still use the Firefox plugin, which is written in Javascript
506
and completely independant of C#, Beagle, Lucene..., and set
507
Recoll to process the Beagle queue directory. This supposes that
507
508
Beagle is not running, else both programs will fight for the same
511
512
panel, or by editing the configuration file (set
512
513
processbeaglequeue to 1).
515
There are more recent instructions about how to find and install
516
the Firefox extension on the Recoll wiki.
