Include in config

Question

Sphinx

Is it possible, and if so, how, to implement this functionality:

There is a sphinx config file:
/etc/sphinxsearch/sphinx.conf
Is it possible to somehow include another configuration file in it, for example, located in:
/www/proj/sphinx .conf

Answer 1

There is no native support for includes, but for this you can write a config in a scripting language, specifying the desired interpreter. Here
are a couple of examples:
on bash: http://adw0rd.com/2009/07/23/sphinx-include/#.UdF1R229CUk
on php: http://sphinxsearch.com/forum/view.html?id=1340

Answer 2

Yes, my config is also rebuilt, it's quite convenient.
