The search highlighter is an elasticsearch extension that'll be used by CirrusSearch through Elasticsearch. I don't know what product it belongs under. I should probably be the default assignment or in the default cc list or something.
Hmmm, so you would like this to be separate from the existing CirrusSearch component in Bugzilla? Is it a separate codebase if I checked it out from Git? Any homepage for it, similar to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CirrusSearch ? In general I point to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Project_Maintainers#To_add_a_project_or_component
Description: Text highlighter for Java designed to be pluggable enough for easy experimentation. Comes in three flavors: * Core: No dependencies jar containing most of the interesting logic * Lucene: A jar containing a bridge between the core and lucene * Elasticsearch: An Elasticsearch plugin Page: https://github.com/wikimedia/search-highlighter (Yeah, I know, but it is standard for Elasticsearch plugins to use github together with its markdown rendered copy of the readme as the home page.) Default CC: Me Code lives separately from CirrusSearch. It is technically a separate and more general project though its development will likely be driven by Cirrus. Repo at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/search/highlighter
Sigh, I really wonder where to put this in our current taxonomy. It's not an extension so I could dump it somewhere under "Tools" (which I want to rename anyway to "Utilities" or so, because tools nowadays refer to stuff on Tool labs) but not really happy with that either. :-/
