PM> Install-Package Examine

Release notes from v1.5.1

No new features have been introduced but there are quite a few bugs fixed in this release: 10357, 10356, 10355, 10363, 10359, 10358, 10360, 10361, 10362, 10349

The Examine.Azure library is also available on Nuget:

PM> Install-Package Examine.Azure

Where are the UmbracoExamine libraries?? We've moved the UmbracoExamine implementation in to the Umbraco core in Umbraco version 6.1. You can still upgrade the basic Examine binaries listed above with your current version of UmbracoExamine.

Release notes from v1.4.2

The 1.4.2 release resolves an issue where an "Inheritance security rules violated" exception would be thrown when using System.Reflection against the Examine assembly.

Release notes from v1.4.1

1.4.1 is a release that upgrades:

Lucene.Net
AzureDirectory

and 1.4.1 now supports medium trust!!

Fixes: 10343

Release notes from v1.4.0

A fairly mega release which borrows some behaviors from the currently under development v2.0 version, this means there are some breaking changes which are listed below, though I don't think these breaking changes will affect many.

Upgraded DLLs to .Net 4.0 runtime
Azure support
No more file queue, all asynchronous operations are handled by .Net 4.0's async Task scheduling system, this not only increases performance but better handles async operations.
Running in async mode will now offer near real time data in your index
Running in non-async mode will not cause index operations to fail in a multi-threaded environment (i.e. website), though still very strongly recommended to run in async for performance reasons especially when bulk inserting/updating
Some bugs fixed

Azure support

In order to support Lucene on Azure, you must have a blob storage account
The Lucene - Azure support is based on the Azure library for Lucene
To get Examine working with Azure, there's a few configuration options to adjust which you can find here: Examine with Azure

Upgrading

You shouldn't really have to do anything to upgrade except replace the DLLs

No more file queue, all asynchronous operations are handled by .Net 4.0's async Task scheduling system, this not only increases performance but better handles async operations.
Running in async mode will now offer near real time data in your index
Running in non-async mode will not cause index operations to fail in a multi-threaded environment (i.e. website), though still very strongly recommended to run in async for performance reasons especially when bulk inserting/updating
Some bugs fixed

Upgrading

You shouldn't really have to do anything to upgrade unless the below Breaking Changes affect you.
The configuration attribute for providers 'interval' can be removed as there is no more file queue (will still work if you dont remove it)

Breaking changes

This release will only work with .Net 4.0 +
The 'IndexerExecutive' object and process has been removed, if you are running a load balanced environment where each web node's file storage is stored on a centralized data store like a SAN than this may affect you. This also means the even: IndexerExecutiveAssigned has been removed.
A few methods/properties have been removed from the LuceneIndexer (or are now not accessible from subclasses) object: SaveDeleteIndexQueueItem, BufferAddIndexQueueItem, SaveBufferAddIndexQueueItem, SaveAddIndexQueueItem, IndexQueueItemFolder
Methods/properties removed from LuceneSearcher (or are now not accessible from subclasses): ValidateSearcher
IIndexer now requires an IndexExists() method, so if you've created your own providers and are not inheriting from LuceneIndexer, this may affect you

Updated Release: v1.3 (Sep 27, 2011)

Shandem — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 09:28:57 GMT

This version addresses a few bugs but more importantly includes drastic performance improvements for re-indexing data. If you have a lot of data that requires re-indexing the process used to be very slow due to the way that the file queue was being serialized and processed. This issue has been addressed and re-indexing is now extremely fast, even with thousands of records of data. The demo web application above demonstrates that re-indexing 27,000 rows of SQL data can be re-indexed in less than 10 seconds on average.

Breaking Changes:

DeleteIndexEventArgs no longer includes the number of records deleted, ctor signature also changed.
SerializableDictionary no longer exists

Other Changes:

iTextSharp DLL upgrade for UmbracoExamine.PDF library
2 new config options for lucene index providers:
- autoOptimizeCommitThreshold="100" (default if not specified). This optimizes the Lucene index for every 100 index writes. This was the default in previous Examine versions but now can be adjusted via config.
- autoOptimize="true" (default if not specified). By default the provider will optimize the index for every 100 index writes, but optimization can be completely disabled by setting this to false if you wish to optimize the index manually.

Upgrading

As always, before performing any upgrades it is highly recommended to make backups of your data, project files, etc...
Replace the following DLLs relevant to your project: Examine.dll, Lucene.dll, UmbracoExamine.dll, UmbracoExamine.PDF.dll, itextsharp.dll
Remove all .EXA and .LCK files in your Index folders .... this is important! (they will be re-created on app startup with the new formats)
Re-compile your project with the new DLLs and ensure that any breaking changes as listed above are fixed. If you aren't using the Examine API directly either by using events or custom providers, then you should not have any errors rebuilding your project.

Documentation

There's also a demo web application included above to demonstrate how to use Examine to index data from a custom database
