Netatalk and spotlight search


Recommended Posts

Right, no Spotlight support is currently built-in to unRAID, mainly because we don't include "Gnome Tracker".  Here are my notes on the subject:

netatalk includes spotlight support but it requires adding a utility called "Gnome Tracker":

Since we are deprecating afp support this might be a problem except that spotlight support is available in Samba:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Spotlight

Still uses Gnome Tracker.  But refer to the netatalk discussion on Limitations and notes.

Here's info on Gnome Tracker:
https://github.com/GNOME/tracker

The 'system' share would be the natural place to keep the database I suppose.

 

I am going to move this topic to Feature Requests.
