I am implementing full-text search for a large collection of databases Using Sphinxsearch. My final goal is to enable simultaneous search on all these databases through the web, with a google-like interface.
Before I roll up my sleeves to start from scratch I would like to know if is there any such project available as Open-Source. If it is implemented in Python, all the better.
Did you try any of the plugins? at (does not work http://sphinxsearch.com/community/plugins/) http://sphinxsearch.com/wiki/doku.php?id=third_party
