PHP Flat File Search Engine (a la Lucene)

[Steve Jenkins]

Hi,

Wonder if someone could help me. I'm looking for a PHP/MySQL based
search engine that can search flat files i.e. build it's own index
from flat files. I've used Apaches' Lucene before
(http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/index.html), so I'm looking for
something similar. If there's a pay-for product out there, I don'd
mind paying.

So, it needs:
- Ability to search a set of flat files and build an index
- Allow users to enter BOOLEAN operators, e.g. dog AND cat OR donkey
- Return results on an accuracy match basis e.g. no. of times all
words in search phrase occured in a file/record

Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Steve.
