- fixed superfluous space in query field list
- fixed filter query logic
- removed look-ahead query which caused that each new search page
submitted two solr queries
- fixed random solr result orders in case that the solr score was equal:
this was then re-ordered by YaCy using the document hash which came from
the solr object and that appeared to be random. Now the hash of the url
is used and the score is additionally modified by the url length to
prevent that this particular case appears at all.
by instatiation from URIMetadataNode, by eleminating differentiation of ResultEntry/URIMetadataNode.
- moved remaining ResultEntry functionallity to URIMetadataNode
- for 1:1 functionallity added a function makeResultEntry()
- removed ResultEntry
- refactored related code
Main difference is after makeResultEntry the text_t content is removed and alternative title/url strings for display are calculated.
Main difference left is, that
to support the new time parser and search functions in YaCy a high
precision detection of date and time on the day is necessary. That
requires that the time zone of the document content and the time zone of
the user, doing a search, is detected. The time zone of the search
request is done automatically using the browsers time zone offset which
is delivered to the search request automatically and invisible to the
user. The time zone for the content of web pages cannot be detected
automatically and must be an attribute of crawl starts. The advanced
crawl start now provides an input field to set the time zone in minutes
as an offset number. All parsers must get a time zone offset passed, so
this required the change of the parser java api. A lot of other changes
had been made which corrects the wrong handling of dates in YaCy which
was to add a correction based on the time zone of the server. Now no
correction is added and all dates in YaCy are UTC/GMT time zone, a
normalized time zone for all peers.
interface to distinguish rich and poor document data.
This also reverts some changes from commit
796770e070 because the firstSeen database
is the wrong method to distinguish these types of data
- if an eventDate is given in the search result, replace the document
date with the event date and prefix it with the string "on ".
- the document date is omitted if a date from the cent is shown
Added also the date as fields in the json and rss result sets.
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)
during document parsing; instead use the same references that would also
be written into the webgraph. That should cause that the webgraph and
the citation index express the exact same semantic.
- refactored all code which uses URIMetadataRow as standard for word
hash length and word hash ordering and moved that to the class 'Word',
becuase the class URIMetadataRow defined the old metadata data structure
and should be superfluous in the future
- removed unused methods from URIMetadataRow as preparation for further
removal of that class
the right content domain (i.e. identifying that it is an image, text
etc.) because it used the file extension and not an existing mime type
assignment.
- fixed the new setting that images shall be loaded for a better image
search.
- both fixes together makes it now possible to crawl
commons.wikimedia.org which makes use of 'funny' document names (i.e.
ending with .jpg while the document is html)
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
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
While the values for the reference evaluation are computed, also a
backlink-structure can be discovered and written to the index as well.
The host browser has been extended to show such backlinks to each
presented links. The host browser therefore can now show an information
where an document is linked. The new citation reference is computed as
likelyhood for a random click path with recursive usage of previously
computed likelyhood. This process is repeated until the likelyhood
converges to a specific number. This number is then normalized to a
ranking value CRn, 0<=CRn<=1. The value CRn can therefore be used to
rank popularity within intra-domain link structures.
- check geolocation coordinates and accept only those, which are
well-formed
- the solr push process does not stop crawling any more if after 20
requests to Solr Solr does not accept the record. Instead, a severe log
entry asks the user to create a bug request
- 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
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.
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
- migrates all entries in old urldb
Metadata coordinate (lat / lon) NumberFormatException still relative often (see excerpt below),
- added try/catch for URIMetadataRow (seems not to be needed in URIMetaDataNode, as Solr internally checks for number format)
- removed possible typ conversion for lat() / lon() comparison with 0.0f, changed to 0.0 (leaving it to the compiler/optimizer to choose number format)

The click depth is computed in two steps:
- during indexing the current fill-state of the reverse link index is
used to backtrack the current page to the root page. The length of that
backtrack is the clickdepth. But this does not discover the shortest
click depth. To get this, a second process to check again is needed
- added a process tag that can be used to do operations on the existing
index after a crawl; i.e. calculation the shortest clickpath. Added a
field to control this operation but not a method to operate on this.
- added a visualization of the clickpath length in the host browser
