Bug#879203: RFP: redisearch -- search engine on top of Redis

[Chris Lamb <lamby@debian.org>]

Hi Piotr,

Am happy to package this, and probably makes sense as the Redis
maintainer anyway.

> I chose redis-modulename as binary package name

So, "redis-redisearch". The only problem is that this *somewhat* collides with other packages in this namespace, such as redis-sentinel and redis-tools (which are not modules). So, one alternative might be "redis-module-redisearch" or "redis-modules-redisearch" but I find them to be a little too ugly.

> /usr/lib/redis/ but maybe /usr/lib/redis/modules/ is a better idea.

/usr/lib/redis/modules/ wfm. (We don't need to gnu-triplet-these for
multiarch do we?)

> so support for /etc/redis/conf.d/ or autoloading modules from given dir

Hm, do we even *want* autoloading modules? I'm not 100% sure we do. I guess
it does not block the packaging anyway...


Regards,
