Thank you for your response 🙂 I will stick to sqlite

How do i use environment variables to make a indexer? I couldn’t get it to work

i.e. the part with directories hister.org/…/indexing-local-files-with-hister

indexer:
  directories:
    - path: ~/Documents
      filetypes: ['md', 'txt']
    - path: ~/code/projects
      filetypes: ['txt']
      excludes: [, 'secret/*', '*key']
    - path: ~/notes
      patterns: ['*.org', 'doc_*', 'README']

I have tried it a bit today and I like it, but I have a few questions

  • Is it better to run it in docker or e.g. a LXC in proxmox? If i want to index files, it seems it needs the config.yml file
  • After just playing with it for a day, the disk usage is 150 MB. I figure I should use postgres instead of sqlite. Do you have any examples on how to set that up, preferably with docker? I guess I can figure it out, but it might take me some time. I am not familiar with pgvector
