The Python interface can be found in the source tree,
under the python/recoll directory.
As of Recoll 1.19, the module can be compiled for Python3.
The normal Recoll build procedure (see above) installs the API package for the default system version (python) along with the main code. The package for other Python versions (e.g. python3 if the system default is python2) must be explicitely built and installed.
The python/recoll/ directory contains
the usual setup.py. After configuring and
building the main Recoll code, you can use the script to build and
install the Python module:
cd recoll-xxx/python/recoll
pythonX setup.py build
sudo pythonX setup.py install
