% Sphinx Search

This document is considered deprecated. Legacy search plugin is not maintained, and configuration examples apply to old Sphinx engine versions. 

----

With [sphinx_search](https://git.tt-rss.org/fox/ttrss-search-sphinx) plugin tt-rss is capable of using
[Sphinx](http://www.sphinxsearch.com) full-text search engine. 

Before adding <code>search\_sphinx</code> to <code>config.php</code> directive
<code>PLUGINS</code>, you’ll have to install and configure Sphinx indexing daemon as described in the [official docs](http://www.sphinxsearch.com/docs/).

Example configuration files attached below. Don’t forget that you need
to update the indexes, for example using cron:

    0   0    *   *   *   /usr/bin/indexer --rotate ttrss >/dev/null 2>&0
    0  */2   *   *   *   /usr/bin/indexer --rotate delta >/dev/null 2>&0
