I wann to index files from folder present on remote pc like
xyz.com/documents is folder name and inside that my files are present. I wrote following code


public class Servlet extends HttpServlet {


PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();


index_path=request.getParameter("index_path");


search_path=request.getParameter("search_path");


out.println("Index path"+index_path);


out.println("
search path"+search_path);




static String index_path;

static String search_path;

protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {

response.setContentType("text/html");

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

index_path=request.getParameter("index_path");

search_path=request.getParameter("search_path");


try

{
Date start = new Date();


File f = new File(index_path);

IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(f,new StandardAnalyzer(), true );


//String searchPath = (new File(search_path)).getAbsolutePath();

//int i = searchPath.indexOf("bin");

//searchPath = searchPath.substring(i+4);

//out.println("
path is"+searchPath);

//URL u = new URL(search_path);

//out.println("
path"+u.getPath());

//out.println("
path"+u.getFile());

//out.println("
path"+u.toString());

//out.println("
path"+u.getHost());



indexDocs( writer, new File(search_path));

writer.optimize();

writer.close();


Date end = new Date();

out.println(" ");

out.println(" ");

out.println(" ");

out.println(" ");

out.println("

Your Given folder is indexd within ");

out.print( end.getTime() - start.getTime() );

out.println(" total milliseconds");

out.println(" ");

out.println(" ");


out.close();

}


}

static void indexDocs( IndexWriter writer, File file )
throws Exception

{
System.out.println("
directory"+file.isDirectory());

if ( file.isDirectory() )

{

String[] files = file.list();


if ( files != null )

{
for ( int i = 0; i < files.length; i++ )

indexDocs( writer, new File( file, files[i] ) );

}

}

else

{
System.out.println( "adding " + file );


try

{
writer.addDocument( document( file ) );

}

catch ( FileNotFoundException e )
{
System.out.println( ">>>" );

e.printStackTrace();

}
}

}


static Document document( File file ) throws FileNotFoundException
{

Document doc = new Document();


doc.add( Field.Text( "path", file.getPath().substring(search_path.length() ) ) );


doc.add( Field.Keyword( "modified",
DateField.timeToString( file.lastModified() ) ) );


Reader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader( new FileInputStream( file ) ) );


doc.add( Field.Text( "contents", reader ) );


return doc;
}
