error in the instructions or not clear about apollo HOT 8 CLOSED

Hey! Sorry, I forgot I'd changed the implementation, I've updated the README, but you wanna put return make(map[string]schema.Data) instead of return make([]schema.Data). That should fix it!

another small thing and one bigger. that the .env file belongs in the root is unclear. given positioning it seems to imply belongs in data.

second: i went to the add page, which isn't documented at all, except in the "see what happens". I enter a URL but don't see the scrape button unless I add something into the content box. I click scrape but don't get the full page content. I actually pointed it at the apollo github main page. nothing is in the data directory.

also, can the yrl be file://some/linux/path? can it be a directory so that you get all the files?

Yep, fair points, let me update the README right now

I type a link in the link box bu nothing happens. I thried this:

https://commonmark.org/help/

and it changed the title and put some text in the box but when i went to search nothing at all. So seems to get the title, etc but no content. All of the files in the data directory (sources,index,local) are all zero length. I am using firefox.

Added: Got working with a different browser. Scraped and the scrape and add buttons are there. I assume I tap add after scraping? Still couldn't get search results even though i see the text in the local.json.

A couple of things:

1. The web scraper is optimized for "digital writing" i.e. blog posts, articles etc. What you pasted won't work correctly because there's nothing meaningful for the web scraper to scrape! Try pasting something that is closer to that format (e.g. http://www.paulgraham.com/hwh.html)
2. The README explains that syncing happens once every 3 days. You can manually change that in the code in cmd/apollo.go if you want to immediately see a change, or refresh the inverted index every time you add something new
   Hope this helps :)

thanks.
