TRACKER-MINER-FS-(1)            Tracker manual            TRACKER-MINER-FS-(1)

NAME
       tracker-miner-fs-3 - Used to crawl the file system to mine data.

SYNOPSIS
       tracker-miner-fs-3 [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION
       tracker-miner-fs-3 is not supposed to be run by the user since it is
       started by its .desktop file when the user logs in. It can also be
       started manually of course for debugging purposes. You can not run more
       than one instance of this at the same time.

       tracker-miner-fs-3 mines information about applications and files only.

OPTIONS
       -?, --help
           Show summary of options.

       -V, --version
           Returns the version of this binary.

       -s, --initial-sleep=SECONDS
           Sets the initial sleep time before crawling the file system is
           started. If the --no-daemon option is used, this option is ignored.

       -n, --no-daemon
           Tells the miner to exit once all indexing has finished and the
           database is up to date. This is not the default mode of operation
           for the miner, usually it stays around acting like a daemon to
           monitor file updates which may occur over time. This option renders
           the --initial-sleep option moot.

       -e, --eligible=FILE
           Checks if FILE is eligible for being mined based on the current
           configuration rules. In addition to this, it will check if FILE
           would be monitored for changes. This works with non-existing FILE
           arguments as well as existing FILE arguments.

ENVIRONMENT
       G_MESSAGES_DEBUG
           Controls verbose log output from GLib-based code. Use
           G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=Tracker to see only Tracker-related logs, or
           G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all to see everything.

       TRACKER_DEBUG
           Enables more specialized debug output. Pass a comma-separated list
           of one or more keywords:

           config
               miner configuration

           miner-fs-events
               internal processing of tracker-miner-fs

           monitors
               change events from filesystem monitors

           statistics
               show statistics about how many files were processed

           status
               log the status messages that are published over D-Bus
