Using Verity with ColdFusion

Here are some ways to use Verity with ColdFusion:

  • Index your website and provide a generalized search mechanism, such as a form interface, for executing searches.

  • Index specific directories that contain documents for subject-based searching.

  • Index specific categories of documents. By organizing your documents into categories, you can let users search specific types of documents. For example, if your website contains FAQs, documentation, and tutorials, you can create a search that lets users search within each of these categories.

  • Index cfquery recordsets, giving users the ability to search against the data. Because collections contain data optimized for retrieval, this method is much faster than performing multiple database queries to return the same data.

  • Index cfldap and cfpop query results.

  • Manage and search collections generated outside ColdFusion using native Verity tools. Collections must be registered with the Verity K2 administration service. To do this either use the Verity tools, or map the collection using the cfcollection tag.

  • Index e-mail generated by ColdFusion application pages and create a searching mechanism for the indexed messages.

  • Build collections of inventory data and make those collections available for searching from your ColdFusion application pages.

  • Support international users in a range of languages using the cfindex, cfcollection, and cfsearch tags.
