This is a major step because solr removed support for embedded solr
instances in 9.0 and we want to keep it because we want to ship
YaCy with an embedded solr. It was necessary to add parts of solr
code into YaCy to make this migration possible. Further on with
Solr 9.1 they removed even more parts which are required for embedded
operation, therefore we cannot migrate yet further without big
changes.
If you are running a YaCy instance with Solr 8.x, the migration should
be done automatically. If not you require to first migrate to a YaCy
version 1.93 with Solr 8.x to migrate to Solr 8 data.
You can now import zim files into YaCy by simply moving them
to the DATA/SURROGATE/IN folder. They will be fetched and after
parsing moved to DATA/SURROGATE/OUT.
There are exceptions where the parser is not able to identify the
original URL of the documents in the zim file. In that case the file
is simply ignored.
This commit also carries an important fix to the pdf parser and an
increase of the maximum parsing speed to 60000 PPM which should make it
possible to index up to 1000 files in one second.
The releaseNr is now set to a static value in build.properties. We
can increment it there manually and eventually switch to another
version number scheme if we like.
