- adopted all YaCy administration pages to new framework
- created new search page layout (working, but still work in progress)
- old skin files are fully appliable! (and looking good)
- target is a new style based on bootstrap examples, see /test.html
- icons in YaCy may be replaced by glyphicons (to be done)
*) image links will not be marked (if they have class "yacylogo" or
"forceNoExternalIcon")
*) external links in menu on left (and "fork me"-banner) will open in
new tab/window now
- an existing ranking servlet for solr was extended. It is now possible
to set boost values for fields, boost functions and boost queries.
- The ranking can have different instances, but currently only the first
one is used
- added an abstraction layer for fields which can be used for search and
those fields can be edited in the solr ranking configruation
- the ranking value from solr within the field score is used to combine
remote search requests, which all are created using the same locally
defined boost values
- reduced the number of fields which are used for search (makes it
faster)
- replaced some text fields by string fields (makes indexing faster)
- removed classes which had no use
- made a large number of experiments for a better ranking and created a
temporary setting which prefers hits inside titles
- adjusted also the RWI-based ranking computation to 'prefer title'
- made special cases like for portal search where no post-processing and
post-ranking is wanted: this keeps the original ranking order as done by
Solr
- fixed many bugs with old settings for ranking
index (new solr core webgraph) .. this is now off by default
- completely redesigned this servlet
- added description how to attach a remote solr
- adjusted naming of servlet and menues
- moved 'lazy initialization' attribut from IndexSchema to
IndexFederated (this is a general option) back again.
The default schema uses only some of them and the resting search index
has now the following properties:
- webgraph size will have about 40 times as much entries as default
index
- the complete index size will increase and may be about the double size
of current amount
As testing showed, not much indexing performance is lost. The default
index will be smaller (moved fields out of it); thus searching
can be faster.
The new index will cause that some old parts in YaCy can be removed,
i.e. specialized webgraph data and the noload crawler. The new index
will make it possible to:
- search within link texts of linked but not indexed documents (about 20
times of document index in size!!)
- get a very detailed link graph
- enhance ranking using a complete link graph
To get the full access to the new index, the API to solr has now two
access points: one with attribute core=collection1 for the default
search index and core=webgraph to the new webgraph search index. This is
also avaiable for p2p operation but client access is not yet
implemented.
- showing also outbound links to other domains if there are any
- the outbound links browser shows also the link structure image
- showing even inbound links if the web structure graph has information
about that
- removed the left menu and made the HostBrowser a part of the top menu
for search
- moved the file search also to the top menu
- added hover information in the HostBrowser to explain what the click
means
- because the HostBrowser also links to the Metadata viewer ViewFile,
there should be a button to switch back to the HostBrowser: added that
also.
IndexControlURLs where it appears more naturally. Because the RWI
administration is less important in the presence of Solr, the
IndexControlURL is now the default servlet when the Index Administration
button on the main menu is selected.
this new search interface is something completely new for search, but
completely common on desktops: browser a web space like one would browse
a file system in a file browser. The file listing is created using the
search index and a faceted restriction to specific domains.
- update to jquery-ui 1.8.16 (includes themes)
- introduced new portalsearch (as default)
- old portalsearch is still available and accessible, but will eventually be removed
- jquery and portal search is now loaded by special header templates for maintenance reasons
- update to new autocomplete, solves bug: http://bugs.yacy.net/view.php?id=29
- many improvements to YMarks GUI and API...more to come anytime soon
Sorry, this is a rather large commit, I hope it doesn't break anything essential, but I need to consolidate some of my efforts in order to move ahead. Especially the update to the portalsearch widget might not be welcomed, but the old one is simply incompatible with newer jquery and jquery-ui libraries, sorry. The code tree /yacy/ui/... is obsolete and will be removed in the future. At that point all productive portalsearches should have migrated to the new version.

Bookmarks.html, Ranking_p.html, base.css: Fixed XHTML errors to make pages compatible again - switched div -> span inside dt and replaced css definition of id (unique) with class (class of elements)
header.template: Fixed link to berliOS changelog by replacing & -> & and adding translation for German page by refering to German berliOS UI ;-]

- this recording is then used to redirect from the Status.html page to BasicConfig in case that servlet was never submitted
- this acts as an addition to the new default pop-up page 'index.html' which offers an administration link to Status.html. For a first-time user this then redirects directly to the former start page BasicConfig.html

instead, a setting at ConfigPortal.html can be made to define if the topmenu shall be shown at these pages or if there is no naviagtion at all.
