VISTARA — Day 2: File Ingestion 🔎
VISTARA is getting smarter today.
It started as a file scanner that could tell me where my files are. Now it’s learning how to actually read what’s inside them. 🗿
VISTARA can currently process:
.txt.md.pdf.docx
It can scan across the PC while skipping unnecessary system and development folders, keeping the focus on useful documents.
It also uses SHA-256 hashing to detect whether a document is:
- 🆕 New
- 🔄 Changed
- 😴 Unchanged
The first full scan found 7,462 supported files. 💀
Now VISTARA is going through them one by one, extracting their contents and storing the information in SQLite.
Basically:
"Where tf did I save that file?"
becomes:
"VISTARA, find it." 🗿
And yes… VISTARA is currently eating thousands of files, so my laptop is getting its own workout. 💀🔥
Next up: SQLite FTS5 keyword search.
VISTARA — a local file search engine built to make finding things on your PC less annoying.
