#=head1 SUBROUTINES
#
#=cut
#
# Files expected first_date.html and first_index.html in the
# 'home' directory.  These are used to build the initial
# search files.
#
# To start a new search: specify a query name (-qn) and
# query string (-qs) (and more). If either are not provided, AS will
# ask the user (STDIN) for the name and/or the string as necessary.
# The string "AutoSearch WEB Searching" is replaced by the query name
# and the string "ask user" is replaced by the query string.
#
# AS 1.x accepts the basic query sub-directory identifier
# and looks to see if qid/date.html exists.  If this file
# file does not exist, AS looks for a file first_date.html
# If the default file in the parent directory is missing, AS
# creates a default-default file named qid/date.html.
# In any case the directory 'qid' is created.
# A second file first_index.html is used to create the initial
# qid/index.html file in a like fashon.
#
# (LATER: ADD SEARCH ENGINE(S))
# There are three important items which must be defined for any
# search that AS will process.  First the query-subdirectory
# identifier (qid).  This is the handle to this query.
# Once a query session is established; only the qid need be
# specified on the command line.
# Second is the 'pretty name' that you will assign to this
# Query.  This is used at the top of the screens to help
# the user identify what the searche topic is.  Third
# is the actual search string.  This is passed directly to
# search processor, and the search engine.
#
# File date.html is used to define the format of the pages which are
# created each time (weekly) AutoSearch.pl is run.  Major sections of
# the file are identified with html comments.  The search string is
# embedded in this file too.  One method of creating a new search is
# to create the new directory manually and create a file named
# date.html in the sub-directory.  However; this requires you to
# understand the tags and build a file which is compatible with AS.
#
# A second method is to manually copy first_date.html to qid/date.html
# and edit it.  This is the John method to introduce a new search.  It
# is cumbersome and not-automated-ish.
#
# A third approach involves using command line arguments to specify
# the query name and string.  This is the wls method.  One variation
# on the wls method is the "ask user" method.  In this approach, AS
# will ask the user for the required items.  In both of these methods
# the necessary files will be created.
#
# Once the initial search has been made and the files created, then
# the simple command "AutoSearch qid" will update the search files and
# pages.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<AutoSearch> performs a web-based search and puts the results
set in F<qid/index.html>.
Subsequent searches (i.e., the second form above)
B<AutoSearch> determine what changes (if any) occured to the
results sent since the last run.
These incremental changes are recorded in F<qid/YYYYMMDD.html>.

B<AutoSearch> is amenable to be run as a B<cron> job because all
the input parameters are saved in the web pages.  B<AutoSearch>
can act as a automated query agent for a particular search.  The output
files are designed to be a set of web pages to easily display the
results set with a web browser.

Example:

    AutoSearch -n 'LSAM Replication'
	-s '"lsam replication"'
	-e AltaVista
	replication_query

This query (which should be all on one line)
creates a directory replication_query
and fills it with the fascinating output of the AltaVista query
on C<"lsam replication">,
with pages titled ``LSAM Replication''.
(Note the quoting:  the single quotes in
C<'"lsam replication"'> are for the shell,
the double quotes are for AltaVista
to search for the phrase rather than the separate words.)

A more complicated example:

    AutoSearch -n 'External Links to LSAM'
	-s '(link:www.isi.edu/lsam or link:www.isi.edu/~lsam) -url:isi.edu'
	-e AltaVista::AdvancedWeb
	-o coolness=hot

This query does an advanced AltaVista search
and specifies the (hypothetical) ``coolness'' option
to the search engine.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over

=item C<qid>

The I<query identifer> specifies the directory in which all the
files that relate to this query and search results will live.
It can be an absolute path, or a relative path from cwd.
If the directory does not exist, it will be created and a new search started.

=item C<--stats>

Show search statistics: the query string,
number of hits, number of filtered hits,
filter string, number of suspended (deleted) hits,
previous set size, current set size, etc.

=item C<-v> or C<--verbose>

Verbose: output additional messages and warnings.

=item C<-n> or C<--qn> or C<--queryname>

Specify the query name.  The query name is used as a heading in the
web pages, therefore it should be a 'nice' looking version of the
query string.

=item C<-s> or C<--qs> or C<--querystring>

Specify the query string.  The query string is the character string
which will be submitted to the search engine.  You may include special
characters to group or to qualify the search.

=item C<-e> or C<--engine>

Specify the search engine.  The query string will be submitted 
to the user specified search engine.

In many cases there are specialized versions of search engines.
For example, B<AltaVista::AdvancedWeb> and B<AltaVista::News>
allow more powerful and Usenet searches.
See L<AltaVista> or the man page for your search engine
for details about specialized variations.

=item C<--listnewurls>

In addition to all the normal file maintenance,
print all new URLs to STDOUT, one per line.

=item C<-o> or C<--options>

Specify the query options.  The query options will be submitted 
to the user search engine with the query string.  This feature
permits modification of the query string for a specific search
engine or option.  More than one query option may be specified.

Example:
C<-o what=news>
causes AltaVista to search Usenet.
Although this works, the preferred mechanism
in this case would be C<-e AltaVista::News> or C<-e AltaVista::AdvancedNews>.
Options are intended for internal or expert use.


=item C<-f> or C<--uf> or C<--urlfilter>

This option specifies a regular expression which will
be compared against the URLs of any results;
if they match the case-insensitive regular expression, they will be removed
from the hit set.

Example:
C<-f '.*\.isi\.edu'> avoids all of ISI's web pages.

=item C<--cleanup i>

Delete all traces of query results from more than i days ago.  If
--cleanup is given, all other options other than the qid will be
ignored.

=item C<--cmdline>

Reconstruct the complete command line (AutoSearch and all its
arguments) that was used to create the query results.  Command line
will be shown on STDERR.  If --cmdline is given, all other options
other than the qid will be ignored.

=item C<--mail user@address> or C<-m user@address>

After search is complete, send email to that user, listing the NEW results.
Email is HTML format.
Requires the Email::Send and related modules.
If you send email through an SMTP server, you must set environment variable SMTPSERVER to your server name or IP address.
If your SMTP server requires password, you must set environment variables SMTPUSERNAME and SMTPPASSWORD.
If you send email via sendmail, you should set environment variable SENDMAIL if the sendmail executable is not in the path.

=item C<--emailfrom user@address>

If your outgoing mail server rejects email from certain users,
you can use this argument to set the From: header.

=item C<--userid bbunny>

If the search engine requires a login/password (e.g. Ebay::Completed), use this.

=item C<--password Carr0t5>

If the search engine requires a login/password (e.g. Ebay::Mature), use this.

=back


=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<AutoSearch> submits a query to a search engine, produces HTML pages
that reflect the set of 'hits' (filtered search results) returned by
the search engine, and tracks these results over time.  The URL and
title are displayed in the F<qid/index.html>, the URL, the title, and
description are displayed in the 'weekly' files.

To organize these results, each search result is placed in a query
information directory (qid).  The directory becomes the search results
'handle', an easy way to track a set of results.  Thus a qid of
C</usr/local/htdocs/lsam/autosearch/load_balancing> might locate the
results on your web server at
C<http://www.isi.edu/lsam/autosearch/load_balancing>.

Inside the qid directory you will find files relating to this query.
The primary file is F<index.html>, which reflects the latest search
results.  Every not-filtered hit for every search is stored in
F<index.html>.  When a hit is no longer found by the search engine it
a removed from F<index.html>.  As new results for a search are
returned from the search engine they are placed in F<index.html>.

At the bottom of F<index.html>, there is a heading "Weekly Search
Results", which is updated each time the search is submitted (see
L<AUTOMATED SEARCHING>).  The list of search runs is stored in reverse
chronological order.  Runs which provide no new information are
identified with

	No Unique Results found for search on <date>

Runs which contain changes are identified by

	Web search results for search on <date>

which will be linked a page detailing the changes from that run.

Detailed search results are noted in weekly files.  These files are
named F<YYYYMMDD.html> and are stored in the qid directory.  The
weekly files include THE URL, title, and a the description (if
available).  The title is a link to the original web page.


=head1 AUTOMATED SEARCHING

On UNIX-like systems, cron(1) may be used to establish periodic
searches and the web pages will be maintained by B<AutoSearch>.  To
establish the first search, use the first example under SYNOPSIS.  You
must specify the qid, query name and query string.  If any of the
items are missing, you will be interactively prompted for the missing
item(s).

Once the first search is complete you can re-run the search with the
second form under SYNOPSIS.

A cron entry like:

    0 3 * * 1 /nfs/u1/wls/AutoSearch.pl /www/div7/lsam/autosearch/caching

might be used to run the search each Monday at 3:00 AM.  The query
name and query string may be repeated; but they will not be used.
This means that with a cron line like:

    0 3 * * 1 /nfs/u1/wls/AutoSearch.pl /www/div7/lsam/autosearch/caching -n caching -s caching

a whole new search series can be originated by

    rm -r /www/div7/lsam/autosearch/caching

However, the only reason to start a new search series would be to
throw away the old weekly files.

We don't recommend running searches more than once per day, but if so
the per-run files will be updated in-place.  Any changes are added to
the page with a comment that "Recently Added:"; and deletions are
indicated with "Recently Suspended:."

=head1 CHANGING THE LOOK OF THE PAGES

The basic format of these two pages is simple and customizable.  One
requirement is that the basic structure remain unchanged.  HTML
comments are used to identify sections of the document.  Almost
everything can be changed except for the strings which identify the
section starts and ends.

Noteworthy tags and their meaning:

=over 16

=item <!--Top-->.*<!--/Top-->

The text contained within this tag is placed at the top of the output
page.  If the text contains I<AutoSearch WEB Searching>, then the
query name will replace it.  If the text does not contain this magic
string and it is the first ever search, the user will be asked for a
query name.

=item <!--Query{.*}/Query-->

The text contained between the braces is the query string.  This is
how B<AutoSearch> maintains the query string.  You may edit this
string to change the query string; but only in F<qid/index.html>.  The
text I<ask user> is special and will force B<AutoSearch> to request
the search string from the user.

=item <!--SearchEngine{.*}/SearchEngine-->

The text contained between the braces is the search engine.  Other
engines supported are HotBot and Lycos.  You may edit this string to
change the engine used; but only in F<qid/index.html>.  The text I<ask
user> is special and will force B<AutoSearch> to to request the search
string from the user.

=item <!--QueryOptions{.*}/QueryOptions-->

The text contained between the braces specifies a query options.
Multiple occurrencs of this command are allowed to specify multiple
options.

=item <!--URLFilter{.*}/URLFilter-->

The text contained between the braces is the URL filter.  This is how
B<AutoSearch> maintains the filter.  Again you may edit this string to
change the query string; but only in F<qid/index.html>.  The text
I<ask user> is special and will force B<AutoSearch> to ask the user
(STDIN) for the query string.  When setting up the first search, you
must edit F<first_index.html>, not F<qid/index.html>.  The URL filter
is a standard perl5 regular expression.  URLs which do not match will
be kept.

=item <!--Bottom-->.*<!--/Bottom-->

The text contained within this tag is placed at the bottom of the
output page.  This is a good place to put navigation, page owner
information, etc.

=back

The remainder of the tags fall into a triplet of I<~Heading>,
I<~Template>, and I<~>, where ~ is Summary, Weekly, Appended, and
Suspended. The sub-sections appear in the order given.  To produce a
section B<AutoSearch> outputs the heading, the template, the section,
n copies of the formatted data, and an /section.  The tags and their
function are:

=over 16

=item ~Heading

The heading tag identifies the heading for a section of the output
file.  The SummaryHeading is for the summary portion, etc.  The
section may be empty (e.g., Suspended) and thus no heading is output.

=item ~Template

The template tag identifies how each item is to be formatted.  Simple
text replacement is used to change the template into the actual output
text.  The text to be replaced is noted in ALLCAPS.

=item ~

This tag is used to locate the section (Summary, Weekly, etc.).  This
section represents the actual n-items of data.

=back

You can edit these values in the F<qid/index.html> page of an existing
search.  The file F<first_index.html> (in the directory above F<qid>)
will be used as a default template for new queries.

Examples of these files can be seen in the pages under
C<http://www.isi.edu/lsam/tools/autosearch/>, or in the output generated by
a new AutoSearch.

=head1 FILES

=over 20

=item F<first_index.html>

optional file to determine the default format of the F<index.html>
file of a new query.

=item F<first_date.html>

optional file to determine the default format of the F<YYYYMMDD.html>
file for a new query.

=item F<qid/index.html>

(automatically created) latest search results, and reverse
chronological list of periodic searches.

=item F<qid/date.html>

file used as a template for the F<YYYYMMDD.html> files.

=item F<qid/YYYYMMDD.html>

(automatically created) summary of changes for a particular date (AKA
'Weekly' file).

=back

Optional files F<first_index.html> and F<first_date.html> are used for
the initial search as a template for F<qid/index.html> and
F<date.html>, respectively.  If either of these files does not exist;
a default-default template is stored within the F<AutoSearch> source.
The intention of these two files is to permit a user to establish a
framework for a group of search sets which have a common format.  By
leaving the default query name and query string alone, they will be
overridden by command line inputs.

These are good ideas that people have suggested.

=over 4

=item URL validation.

Validate the status of each URL (with HTTP HEAD requests) and indicate
this status in the output.

=item Multi-search.

It should be possible to merge the results of searches from two
search-engines.  If this merger were done as a new search engine, this
operation would be transparent to AutoSearch.
