Many OpenSearch systems do not provide results as standard RSS/Atom
feeds but only as HTML.
This modification add some support for custom OpenSearch HTML results
through the use of mapping files (as already done for federated Solr
search) relying on CSS-like selectors to retrieve information from HTML
content.
An example mapping file is provided to map results from the
www.npmjs.com OpenSearch URL.
introduce FederateSearchManager handling search heuristic to external systems via specific FederateSearchConnectors,
which provide the query() functionallity, the translation to YaCy schema .toYaCySchema() and the search() routine to deliver results to searchevents, which is generally implemented in Abstract connector.
The manager enforces now a min 15s delay between calls to external systems.
Besides the OpensearchConnector a SolrFederateSearchConnector is available. It uses a additional config file for fieldname translation.
default heuristicopensearch.conf:
- openbdb.com removed - seems not longer to deliver results
- config via solrconnector to datacite.org added (large technical library archive)
- with search modifier /heuristic a request is send to all configured opensearch target systems (old /heuristic/blekko modifier not longer valid)
- this allows to use opensearch heuristic on individual search request (in contrast to configuration HEURISTIC_OPENSEARCH=true which sends a osd request on all global searches
- the index.html searchoption text adjusted to be displayed only if option configured
- add Archive-It to predefined systems
- any system supporting opensearch specification can be configured
- search query is only forwarded to remote system if not enough results available on local peer
- discover function provided, checking the local Solr index for links to opensearchdescription files, to add to the config
- sample config file with some general search engines with opensearch support
