Free intranet pages software for linux

Linux documentation can be found in man pages, info files, HOWTOs and FAQs, and elsewhere. (For example, also the kernel Documentation directory contains a lot of good stuff.) A nice index for the man pages in Fedora Core 2 is found at the superman site.

Man pages belonging to programs are usually distributed together with those programs. Therefore, the Linux man-pages distribution mainly contains the pages for system calls and library routines, special devices, and file formats.

However, it also contains documentation for a number of programs, in cases where the authors or maintainers of the program do not distribute man pages themselves.

AT Media Page provides a simple and easy to use Plone Page which can contain ATImages.

Simple Page Archive is a mirror and archiving tool to copy Web pages you are interested in. The CGI script downloads all images and CSS files to preserve the mirrored Web page.
It works with the ZEUS (www.zeus.com) and Apache (www.apache.org) web servers. SPA is an simple CGI script which allows you to mirror a single web page. It stores all images and CSSs locally, so you are able to browse through the archive without the need of the original, images being availiable.
The script is dead simple to install!
1. First you need to download "Beatiful Soup" (BS) from http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/ which is a quite simple but very good HTML Parser (not like the one in the Python distro .. which is acutally broken). Please "install" the BS module in your site-packages directory of python.
2. Copy the "index.py" file to directory of your "web archive".
3. Edit the script and change wroot variable in Configuration section at the beginning of the script to the document root directory of your web archive (NOT the physical path on the disk!)
3.1 If you are behind a firewall and you need proxy support, add your proxy server in the Configuration section as well.
4. Make sure you have CGI support enabled in your web server.
5. Make sure index.py is being called as the default DirectoryIndex.
6. Make sure the permissions of the index.py file and the directory are set
correctly. The CGI process must be able to write to your archive directory.
7. Open a browser and try to mirror a page ;-)
Enhancements:
- Added filter support
- Output now sorted by date

PerlPoint::Generator::XML::XHTML::Paged is a Perl module that generates paged XHTML via XML.

Red-Piranha is an open source search system that can actually learn what you are looking for. It lets you go everywhere , find anything , understand everything.

As a Java based program , it will run on any platform including Windows , Linux / Unix and Mac.
Main features:
- Personal Search Engine for your Desktop (Windows , Linux and Mac).
- Intranet Search Engine - Search your Company or College Intranet.
- Part of your Development Project - Have search abilities up and running in a few minutes.
- To provide Search facilities on your website.
- As a P2P search engine.
- In conjunction with a wiki, as a knowledge / document management solution.

- Provide a back end for searching in your App (Web , Swing , SWT , Flash, Mozilla-XUL, PHP , Perl or even c#/.Net) .
- Document Management for PDF, Word and other Docs.
- As a Webservice to provide search information
- As a command line tool , to give searching power to your scripts.
- Provide a Search facility for your project documentation.
Using
To use Red-Piranha - open your favourite web browser and point it at http://localhost:8080/RP . Within a few seconds , you should see the Red-Piranha start screen. This will have three items of interest
- A Text box , where we enter the information to add or search
- An add information button - to tell Red-Piranha about new information
- A Search button - to carry out a search.
Before we can search , we must tell Red-Piranha we information we are interested in. This is as easy as putting the piece of information we want to add (e.g. the folder c:temp) in the search box and pressing the Add information button. A message will be displayed saying that your information is being added and will be available to search shortly. For more information , look in the logs at TOMCAT_HOMEWebappsRPlogsrp.log
Examples of things we can add to Red-Piranha are
- A folder (e.g. C:Temp). All files in both this folder and *all* its subfolders will be added.
- An individual file. This file can be text , a web page , a word document , or pdf document. For binary files (like word , which are not plain text) , Red-Piranha will scan the file for recognizable text and add that.
- A Web page. Red-Piranha will add this web page , *and* web pages it links to.
- A Google Search (e.g. http://www.google.com/search?q=some+thing?m=100). Red-Piranha will get the results of the google search , and add information on the pages it links to.
- An XML file (including RSS feeds) , either on disk or over the web.
- Favourites / Bookmarks folders - Red-Piranha will index the web pages that these favourites point to.
Adding information can take anything from a few milliseconds , depending on the amount of information being added. Once added, Red-Piranha will check on a regular basis to see if the information added has changed and re-index if required. Your information is now available to be searched.
To do a search , put the item you want to search for into the textbox and press search. Red-Piranha will show the search results on the screen. Clicking on the link beside the search results will show you the original information (as long as you have access to it).
From version 0.3 onwards , Red-Piranha can learn what search results you are interested in an improve your future searches. To give Red-Piranha feedback and help it learn what you are interested in , click on any of the links on the search results page. Red-Piranha makes a note of your choice , which is used to adjust the search results later.

SPYCE is a server-side language that supports simple and efficient Python-based dynamic HTML generation, otherwise called Python Server Pages (PSP).

Those who are familiar with JSP, PHP, or ASP and like Python, should have a look at Spyce. Its modular design makes it very flexible and extensible. Spyce - Python Server Pages can also be used as a command-line utility for static text pre-processing or as a web-server proxy.

The supported adapters are:

* Fast CGI:The default Spyce integration with Apache is acheived via FastCGI, a CGI-like interface that is relatively fast, because it does not incur the large process startup overhead on each request.

* mod_python: If you really must have the fastest Spyce implementation (see the performance numbers), it is currently through an Apache module called mod_python. Spyce has been tested with mod_python version 2.7.6 (and version 3.0.3 with apache 2.0.37). You can try to find some mod_python rpms here, but in general one must compile mod_python from sources. The reason for this is because mod_python links with the Python library it finds on your system at compile time. Thus, even if you have the correct Python version installed on your system, mod_python will be using the Python library version on the system where it was compiled. Also, note that mod_python (or rather Apache) needs a Python that has been compiled without threading, so you may need to recompile Python as well for this reason. The process is not very difficult (just the usual: ./configure; make; make install dance), but hopefully someone will suggest a better route in time. In any case, make sure you can first get mod_python running on your system, if that is that is your chosen Apache integration route.

* Web server: Another fast alternative is to serve Spyce files via a proxy. This involves running Spyce in web-server mode, and configuring the main web server to forward the appropriate requests. The built-in Spyce web server can also be used to serve requests directly, but this is highly discouraged for production environments.

* CGI: Failing these alternatives you can always process requests via regular CGI, but this alternative is the slowest option and is intended primarily for those who do not have much control over their web environments.

* Command line: Lastly, one can use Spyce as a command-line tool for pre-processing Spyce pages and creating static HTML files.
