removed preferred IPv4 in start options and added a new field IP6 in
peer seeds which will contain one or more IPv6 addresses. Now every peer
has one or more IP addresses assigned, even several IPv6 addresses are
possible. The peer-ping process must check all given and possible IP
addresses for a backping and return the one IP which was successful when
pinging the peer. The ping-ing peer must be able to recognize which of
the given IPs are available for outside access of the peer and store
this accordingly. If only one IPv6 address is available and no IPv4,
then the IPv6 is stored in the old IP field of the seed DNA.
Many methods in Seed.java are now marked as @deprecated because they had
been used for a single IP only. There is still a large construction site
left in YaCy now where all these deprecated methods must be replaced
with new method calls. The 'extra'-IPs, used by cluster assignment had
been removed since that can be replaced with IPv6 usage in p2p clusters.
All clusters must now use IPv6 if they want an intranet-routing.
'cloud' was a bad idea. Changed also the accumulation process for peer
targets so that every dht chunk is not assigned the set of redundant
targets but they are assigned to redundant targets individually. This
enhances the granularity of the target accumulation and should enhance
the efficiency of the process. Finally the dht protocol client was
enriched with the ability to remove the 'accept remote index' flag from
peers or remove peers completely if they do not answer at all.
was optional and another alternative metadata store was available. Since
that store is now removed, Solr is always available (internally or
externally)
- since specific heuristic Twitter & Blekko is not longer available or redundant with OpenSearchHeuristic,
adjusted ConfigHeuristic to use OpensearchHeuristic settings only.
For this the default OSD search target list is made available (copied) by default and the other configs are removed.
- the return of QueryGoal.getOriginalQueryString includes the queryModifier, which are held separately in a modifier object,
but in most (all) cases just the query term is expected, clarified and renamed it to QueryGoal.getQueryString which returns
just the search term (if needed a .getOrigianlQueryString could be implemented in Queryparameters, adding the modifiers)
- started to adjust internal html href references from absolute to relative (currently it is mixed).
For future development we should prefer relative href targets (less trouble with context aware servlets)
request into a separate thread and ignores the furthure result of a
request if that does not answer within the requested time-out. This is a
try to solve a problem with the peer-ping, which hangs whenever a peer
appears to be dead or blocked.
As the solr servlet may not be available (e.g. no public search page, old version, individual access setting) a /solr/select error is
remembered in the seed.dna of the remote peer.
This is not permanent, as flag is not stored and the seed is reloaded on several occasions, it is just a memory of the recent past status.
Might also be set to "not available" on time-out of last try.
- added default filename filter to select field (as only addition to *.black list is permanent)
- modified Blacklist_p header/legend to show all active blacklists
(to support understanding that all configured lists are active)
- removed obsolete code in Blacklist_p servlet
servlet since YaCy 1.63. This is much more performant for the client
than using the XMLResponseWriter because parsing of XML data is very CPU
intensive. Older YaCy peers are still requested using the
XMLResponseWriter but the majority of YaCy peers already respond with
the binary writer. This makes remote searches much faster and less CPU
intensive.
all unique links! This made it necessary, that a large portion of the
parser and link processing classes must be adopted to carry a different
type of link collection which carry a property attribute which are
attached to web anchors.
- introduction of a new URL class, AnchorURL
- the other url classes, DigestURI and MultiProtocolURI had been renamed
and refactored to fit into a new document package schema, document.id
- cleanup of net.yacy.cora.document package and refactoring
in intranets and the internet can now choose to appear as Googlebot.
This is an essential necessity to be able to compete in the field of
commercial search appliances, since most web pages are these days
optimized only for Google and no other search platform any more. All
commercial search engine providers have a built-in fake-Google User
Agent to be able to get the same search index as Google can do. Without
the resistance against obeying to robots.txt in this case, no
competition is possible any more. YaCy will always obey the robots.txt
when it is used for crawling the web in a peer-to-peer network, but to
establish a Search Appliance (like a Google Search Appliance, GSA) it is
necessary to be able to behave exactly like a Google crawler.
With this change, you will be able to switch the user agent when portal
or intranet mode is selected on per-crawl-start basis. Every crawl start
can have a different user agent.
jdk-based logger tend to block
at java.util.logging.Logger.log(Logger.java:476) in concurrent
environments. This makes logging a main performance issue. To overcome
this problem, this is a add-on to jdk logging to put log entries on a
concurrent message queue and log the messages one by one using a
separate process.
- FTPClient uses the concurrent logging instead of the log4j logger
soft commits, reduced caching size of search events, ensured that solr
results are processed before connection is closed to keep that stuff not
too long in RAM
Because the index size is now provided by solr, and the only way to do
that is a match for [* TO *], a size computation is quite complex and
time-consuming. Therefore this patch prevents that the method is called
at all and if necessary puts a DOS-preventing barrier in front of it.
- no document search this time
- adjusted banner and network to not show 'WORDS' but DHT Chunks. This
is to avoid confusion for robinson peers which do not create Word
Entries
- 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
- removed 'worker' processes
- no internal time-out behaviour: methods either are successful or
return null
- waiting is only done on top-level
- removed snippet-production; this is replaced by solr snippets
- removed statistics based on solr size queries (they had been VERY
long); the statistics (like suggestions or tag cloud) are now again
based on the old but very fast RWI index. In portal or intranet mode the
RWI index is usually switched off; if you like to have statistics again
then you must switch on the rwis again in this mode.
- fixed many bugs regarding correct page counter

also moved portalsearch-dev to yacy-portalsearch to be able to fix
problems with new attachment to solr of the search widget
structure, but is not filled yet. To have the opportunity of a second
core, multi-core functionality had to be implemented to the
deep-embedded solr:
- migrated the solr_40 directory content to a subdirectory
'collection1'; the previously used default core is now called
collection1
- added solr_40/webgraph subdirectory as second core
- added a servlet configuration for the second core 'webgraph' in
/IndexSchema_p.html
- added instance handling as addition to solr connections: all solr
connectors are now instances of an solr 'instance' object; this required
a complete re-design of the solr embedding
- migrated also caching and sharding ontop of new instance handling
- migrated the search apis to handle now the access to a specific core,
the default core named 'collection1'
- migrated the remote solr search interface to access shards of cores;
for the yacy remote search the default core is now called 'solr'; using
the peer address as solr address
- migrated the solr backup and restore process: old backups cannot be
used after this migration!
- redesign of solr instance handling in all methods which access the
instances: they cannot hold copies of these instances any more; the must
retrieve the actuall connection object every time they want to write to
it (this solves also some bugs when switching the index/network)
- added another schema 'solr.webgraph.schema', the old solr.keys.list is
replaced by solr.collection.schema
multiple solr cores instead of just one. Therefore it is now necessary
to distuingish between solr server connections (called an 'Instance')
and a connection to a single solr core. One Instance may now have
multiple connector classes assigned to it, each connecting to a single
core.
To support multiple cores it is also necessary to distinguish between
the connection configuration and the configuration of the index schema.
We will have multiple schema configurations in the future, each for
every solr core. This caused that the IndexFederated servlet had to be
split into two parts, the new Servlet for the Schema editor is now in
the IndexSchema Servlet.
Solr search interface in such way that it is possible to use this
interface for the yacyinteractive search. This search interface is now
much faster using the Solr search directly. For the Solr interface it
was necessary to create a translation from the YaCy search modifiers to
the Solr facet selection. This was added in such a way that it becomes
generic for the normal YaCy search and as a on-top evaluation for Solr
queries.
- when using a site operator search for a domain where the domain has a
www prefix, also the domain without the www is enclosed
- when using a site operator search for a domain where the domain has no
www prefix, also the domain with the www in enclosed
- in the host navigator, all domains with and without a www prefix are
accumulated. That means that the host navigator does never show a host
with a www prefix.
This should prevent usage mistakes of the site operator.
introduce a copy-field for the author field to be copied to a string
field. This field is then used to generate facets. Without this field,
the facet would consist only of the words of the author names, not of
the full author string.
need regular expressions as search attributes. They had now been removed
from the advanced search page while they are still created internally.
The filter is then expressed against solr as regular expression filter
query. If the expression points out a selection of an specific protocol,
host or filetype this is then translated into a facetted query.
added solr highlighting / YaCy snippets to YaCy search results
- facets are now much more complete
- facets are computed and searched much faster
- snippet computation is done by solr if solr knows the snippet
superfluous. The target is to make a solr document as the core of YaCy
documents which would cause that many conversions can be removed. On the
way to this target the Equivalence of URIMetadataRow and URIMetadataNode
had to be removed to expose the usage of the old URIMetadataRow data
structure.
This refactoring already removes unneccessary conversions and should
make memory usage during indexing lower.
which had been then mixed with remote RWIs. Now these Solr documents are
feeded into the result set as they appear during local and remote
search. That makes the search much faster.
