The Orcinus Site Search PHP script is an all-in-one website crawler, indexer and search engine that extracts searchable content from plain text, XML, HTML and PDF files at a single, or multiple websites. It replaces 3rd party, remote search solutions such as Google etc.

Orcinus will crawl your website content on a schedule, or at your command via the admin UI or even by CLI / crontab. Crawler log output conveniently informs you of missing pages, broken links or links that redirect, and other errors that a webmaster can fix to keep the user experience tight. A full-featured, responsive administration GUI allows you to adjust crawl settings, view and edit all crawled pages, customize search results, and view a log of user search queries. You also have complete control over the appearance of your search results with a convenient templating system.

Optionally, Orcinus can generate a sitemap .xml or .xml.gz file of your pages after every crawl, suitable for uploading to the Google Search Console. It can also export a JavaScript version of the entire search engine that works with offline mirrors, such as those generated by HTTrack.

Requirements:

  • PHP >= 8.0.x
  • MySQL >= 8.0.17 / MariaDB >= 10.0.5

3rd Party Libraries:

Optional:

Getting Started

  1. Copy the orcinus directory to your root web directory.
  2. Fill out your SQL and desired credential details in the orcinus/config.ini.php file.
  3. Visit yourdomain.com/orcinus/admin.php in your favourite web browser and log in.
  4. Optionally follow the instructions in orcinus/geoip2/README.md to enable geolocation of search queries.

Examples of search interface integration are given in the example.php (online / PHP) and example.html (offline / JavaScript) files.
