- author facet is based on omitted author_sxt field
- adjust to make author nav available on exist of author field but keep using author_sxt to construct the facet (why!?)
- add check for querymodifier author in searchevent
- Web servers may now deliver YaCy-specific http header field with a
title and keywords. The new http header fields are:
X-YaCy-Media-Title - to be used for media (image, audio, video) titles
X-YaCy-Media-Keywords - to be used for media (image, audio, video)
keywords
- both fields are written to document fields title and keywords and are
searched also during image search.
- to make the usage of arbitrary http header fields (including this new
fields) possible in the /api/push_p.json servlet, a new POST argument is
also introduced to push http header fields. The new POST attribute is
named "responseHeader-X" (where X is the counter). It is allowed to use
this attribute as multi-attribute several times, each can be filled with
a http header line.
- see /api/push_p.html for examples
Filter queries are not actually related to ranking, but user requests
have pointed out that specific boost queries to move results to the end
of the result list are not sufficient. Such boost filters may be better
executed as actual filter and therefore such a filter can now be
statically applied to every search request. A typical use could be the
expression "http_unique_b:true AND www_unique_b:true" which uses the
recently introduced fields http_unique_b and www_unique_b which are true
only for one of the alternatives with/without http(s) and with/without
prefix 'www.' in host names.
The collection field (can be filled i.e. in Crawl Start) can be used to
add categories to YaCy index entries. The usage of that field was
restricted to solr searches and post argument filters as implemented in
commit f7571386a3.
This commit extends collections to a full navigation option in the
standard YaCy search interface. The field is not active by default but
can be activated easily in the /ConfigSearchPage_p.html servlet (just
check the 'Collection' facet field). Collections can now be used for (at
least) two purposes:
- to provide search tenants (through post argument collection)
- to provide self-made category navigation
Search requests may now have (independently from switched on or off
collection facet) a "collection:<collection-name>" modifier attached;
firthermore collection names may use disjunctions using the '|' pipe
symbol. For example, this is a valid search request:
www collection:user|proxy
crawling to the YaCy indexer. Files are uploaded using POST multipart
requests; multiple file uploads are possible as well. Each file has
attached the file date and mime type which is used to get the right
parser for the submitted data. Also an url is submitted which is
assigned to the document.
The CrawlSwitchboard has a new option for default Crawl Profiles which
are assigned dynamically from the new push interface.
- unique-postprocessing was destroying results from other
postprocessings; removed cross-updates as they had been not necessary
- unique-postprocessing did not restrict on same protocol
- inefficient concurrent update cache was redesigned completely
- increased limits for concurrent blocking queues to prevent early
time-out
After import the conent is never accessed but may take up a lot of disk space,
also the getLoadedOAIServer (which lists the files in surrogate out) is not used.
Making the surrogate.out obsolete. Removed keeping of xmls after import.
This organizes all urls to be loaded in separate queues for each host.
Each host separates the crawl depth into it's own queue. The primary
rule for urls taken from any queue is, that the crawl depth is minimal.
This produces a crawl depth which is identical to the clickdepth.
Furthermorem the crawl is able to create a much better balancing over
all hosts which is fair to all hosts that are in the queue.
This process will create a very large number of files for wide crawls in
the QUEUES folder: for each host a directory, for each crawl depth a
file inside the directory. A crawl with maxdepth = 4 will be able to
create 10.000s of files. To be able to use that many file readers, it
was necessary to implement a new index data structure which opens the
file only if an access is wanted (OnDemandOpenFileIndex). The usage of
such on-demand file reader shall prevent that the number of file
pointers is over the system limit, which is usually about 10.000 open
files. Some parts of YaCy had to be adopted to handle the crawl depth
number correctly. The logging and the IndexCreateQueues servlet had to
be adopted to show the crawl queues differently, because the host name
is attached to the port on the host to differentiate between http,
https, and ftp services.
stack on html tag objects, not using a recursive parse-again method
which may cause bad performance and huge memory allocation. The new
method also produced better parsed image objects with exact anchor text
references.
- added order option to solr queries to be able to retrieve document
lists in specific order, here: link length
- added HyperlinkEdge class which manages the link structure
- integrated the HyperlinkEdge class into clickdepth computation
- extended the linkstructure.json servlet to show also the clickdepth
and other statistic information
- not doing an optimization will likely cause a too many files exception
- without optimization performance will be even worse which would
prevent optimization in the future as well (prevent a deadlock
situation)
a document. This is the upper limit for the clickdepth_i value which may
be shorter in case that the crawler did not take the shortest path to
the document.
processes in favor of throwaway-processes. The control mechanism does
less often report a 'queue full' message to the busy loop which then
does not perform a long busy waiting; instead all requests are queued
and new loader processes are started if necessary up to a given limit
(as set before)
instead of TreeMaps)
- enhanced memory footprint of database indexes (by introduction of
optimize calls)
- optimize calls shrink the amount of used memory for index sets if they
are not changed afterwards any more
different from normal requests. This happens if the remote solr is
actually a solrCloud; in such cases the luke request returns only the
result of the single solr peer, not the whole cloud.
also done: some refactoring.
