stumpylogandClaude Opus 5 7fddad849a refactor(search): delete the date-keyword-phrase pre-parse rewrite
whoosh-compat's grammar already accepts the closed multi-word date
keyword vocabulary (previous month, this year, etc.) unquoted after a
date field, making _quote_date_keyword_phrases redundant. Like its
sibling rewrite removed in an earlier commit, it was not quote-aware
and could insert quotes mid-phrase inside an unrelated quoted string
(e.g. title:"see added:previous month notes"), corrupting the parse.
Deleting it removes that hazard entirely.

Docs are adjusted to scope the quoted-or-unquoted equivalence to the
documented keyword list; other date expressions the grammar accepts
(relative offsets, absolute dates) still require quoting.

Paperless-ngx

Paperless-ngx is a document management system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online archive so you can keep, well, less paper.

Paperless-ngx is the official successor to the original Paperless & Paperless-ng projects and is designed to distribute the responsibility of advancing and supporting the project among a team of people. Consider joining us!

Thanks to the generous folks at DigitalOcean, a demo is available at demo.paperless-ngx.com using login demo / demo. Note: demo content is reset frequently and confidential information should not be uploaded.

Features

A full list of features and screenshots are available in the documentation.

Getting started

The easiest way to deploy paperless is docker compose. The files in the /docker/compose directory are configured to pull the image from the GitHub container registry.

If you'd like to jump right in, you can configure a docker compose environment with our install script:

bash -c "$(curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/main/install-paperless-ngx.sh)"

More details and step-by-step guides for alternative installation methods can be found in the documentation.

Migrating from Paperless-ng is easy, just drop in the new docker image! See the documentation on migrating for more details.

Important Note

Document scanners are typically used to scan sensitive documents like your social insurance number, tax records, invoices, etc. Paperless-ngx should never be run on an untrusted host because information is stored in clear text without encryption. No guarantees are made regarding security (but we do try!) and you use the app at your own risk. The safest way to run Paperless-ngx is on a local server in your own home with backups in place.
