Content options

131

In Windows, include double-quotation marks around the argument to protect the special 
characters, such as the asterisk (*). On UNIX, use single-quotation marks. This is only required 
when you run the indexing job from a command line. Quotation marks are not necessary within 
a command file (the 

-cmdfile

 option).

Use this option to gather some documents, such as HTML tables of contents, to gain access to 
other documents for indexing. The 

-mimeexclude

 option, on the other hand, prevents specified 

documents from being followed at all. For the mime variable, you can include the asterisk (*) 
wildcard for text strings; for example:

'text/*'

You cannot use the question mark (?) wildcard, and the 

-regexp

 option does not let you use 

regular expressions.

-indmimeinclude

Syntax: 

-indmimeinclude mime_1 [mime_n] ...

Specifies that only those MIME types that match the expressions be followed and indexed. 

The 

-mimeinclude

 option does not let you index desired documents if the starting URL is not 

followed. For the mime variable, you can include the asterisk (*) wildcard for text strings; for 
example:

'text/*'

In Windows, include double-quotation marks around the argument to protect the special 
character (*). On UNIX, use single-quotation marks. This is only required when you run the 
indexing job from a command line. Quotation marks are not necessary within a command file 
(the 

-cmdfile

 option).

You cannot use the question mark (?) wildcard, and the 

-regexp

 option does not allow you to use 

regular expressions.

Example 

If you want to index all Word documents at http://web.verity.com, you cannot use:

vspider -collection collname -style style_dir -start 

http://web.verity.com -mimeinclude 'application/msword'

This is because the starting point does not match the 

-mimeinclude

 criteria. You can use the 

-indmimeinclude

 option to follow all documents (unless you have specified any of the exclude 

options) and index only those documents that match your criteria. Replace the 

-mimeinclude

 

option with the 

-indmimeinclude

 option in the preceding example.

-indskip

Syntax: 

-indskip HTML_tag "exp"

Type: Web crawling only
