- 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
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.

also moved portalsearch-dev to yacy-portalsearch to be able to fix
problems with new attachment to solr of the search widget
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
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.
one request:
- allow larger match-fields in html interface
- delete all host hashes at once from zurl
- when deleting by host, do not count size of deleted entries since that
was the reason it took so long
4.0.0 there is a new softcommit feature which implements a
near-real-time (NRT) search option. The softcommit does not do IO and
does not cause performance issues.
YaCy has now an extension in its solr connectors to use the softcommit
feature. The softcommit call now replaces all places where a hard commit
was used. Furthermore the commit strategy in when doing a search from
the web interface was changed (it's done every time before a search is
done).
The softcommit feature was implemented because it was needed for the
following changes (customer demands), which is also included in this
git commit:
- added a feature to identify all documents which have unique titles
and/or unique descriptions. These unique flags are disabled by default.
- added also a feature to set a flag when the url from a canonical tag
is equal to the document url. This is also disabled by default.
To support the new softcommit strategy, the commitWithinMs option was
set to -1 do disable automatic commit based on document insert times. If
documents are inserted permanently then also a commit would happen
permanently whenever the commitWithinMs time is reached. This would
conflict with the regular autocommit of 10 minutes and the new
softcommit strategy.
- 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.

The feature was not called 'haslink' but called 'inlink' to have a
analogous naming like 'inurl'. This causes now that you can search for
words in links of the document, like:
* inlink:yacy
searches all documents which link to pages which have an 'yacy' in the
url.
- 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)

- added additional config page (ConfigSearchPage_p) for easy setup of search page layout (to not overload ConfigPortal page)
- currently redundant setting with part of ConfigPortal page
- added missing config for filetype and protocol navigator
- adjusted init of SearchEvent to check navigation config setting
- renamed RankigProcess.getTopicNavigator to getTopics (to distiguish between added SearchEvent.getTopicNavigator)
metadata and old rwi and for the citation index. The important
advancement is the separation of the citation index deletion because
that index is responsible for the linkdepth calculation. Now a search
index can be deleted without the citation index and that should cause
that less clickdepths must be post-processed.
This attribute can be used for ranking and for other purpose (demand by
customer)
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
- urlcitationindex != null check added to ResultEntry.referencesCount
- plus other places where conflicting procedure was used (and urlcitationindex not already checked != null)
that enables viewing of images for intranet SMB servers.
- added a filter search for protocol, tld and ext again; otherwise p2p
search produces a lot of rubbish
- an event type (once, regular) can be selected
- for this event type, a fixed time can be selected. This may be either
directly after startup or at one of the full hours at a day (==25
options)
The main point about this feature is the opportunity to start an action
directly after startup. That makes it possible to create YaCy
distributions which, after started at the first time, start to index
parts of the intranet/internet by itself.
proper/known
- automatically show the protocol navigation if there is more than http
and https
- automatically show the extension navigation if there is some media
content
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.
clicks which are necessary to get from the portal of a host to a
specific document. At this time, only the start document is flagged with
clickdepth '0', all other with '-1'. To get the actual clickdepth, a
process must use crawled information to collect the actual number of
clicks. This will be added in another/next step.
INCOMING links to the corresponding web page. This information is taken
from the reverse link index (a 'little sister' of the RWI index).
- this field can be of use to enhance the ranking because a web page
with more incoming links can be more more important than others. But
this is not true for typical link pages like menues. Therefore the
number of outgoing links is needed.
- added a new solr attribute 'bf' to solr queries which is a boost
function extension. this field can contain a formula which comuptes the
boost according to given field values. After some experiments the
following forumla is now default:
div(add(1,references_i),pow(add(1,inboundlinkscount_i),1.6))^0.4
This takes the number of references and the inbound links. Further
experiments are needed to enhance that forumula.
This uses an enhanced version of the Nutch/Solr TextProfileSignatue.
As a result, a signature of the document is written to the solr search
index. Additionally for each time when a signature is written, it is
checked if the singature exists already in the index. If the signature
does not exist, the document is marked as unique. The unique attribute
can now be used to sort document lists and bring duplicates to the end
of a result list.
To enable this, a large portion of the search api to Solr had to be
changed. This affected mainly caching of 'exists' searches to enhance
the check for existing signatures and do this without actually doing a
solr query.
Because here the first time a long number is used as value in the Solr
store, also the value naming in the YaCySchema had to be adopted and
normalized. This caused that many files had to be changed.
the actual data which is fetched from solr.
- used the new field options to reduce generic options like getting the
load date or the count of search results. should increase overall speed
- used the new field options to reduce overhead in the host browser
during aquisition of links.
- used the field options to make checking of links in crawler faster
- if the crawler is paused, the crawl queue is not cleaned
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
- only visible for admins
- a faceted search generates a huge list for all hosts in the host list
- the faceted search algorithms had to be modified for that
- within the browsing of the directory path, the error cause is written
to the url which is presented as error-url
- the errors are also accumulated for directory sums
deleted which are selected by a crawl filter (host or subpath)
- site crawl used this option be default now
- made option to deleteDomain() concurrency
- time-out after 3 seconds to speed up display (may be incomplete)
- showing also all links from the balancer queue in the host list (after
the '/') and in the result browser view with tag 'loading'
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.
URIMetadataNode which creates the opportunity to access Solr objects
directly and use their information richness
- lazy initialization of the URIMetadataNode object - should cause less
computation and memory usage during search.
- removed dead code
- 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.
MultiProtocolURI during normalform computation because that should
always be done and also be done during initialization of the
MultiProtocolURI Object. The new normalform method takes only one
argument which should be 'true' unless you know exactly what you are
doing.
there is no need for the RWI index if the index is not transfered to
another peer. Therefore the creation of RWI index data is now suppressed
if DHT is disabled. This applies for all intranet and portal mode
configurations, but not for public robinson modes. A robinson may switch
back to public mode and then transmit its data. That means if someone
wants to switch never to DHT mode, it would be more appropriate to
choose the portal mode.
on the jaudiotagger library. The parser is disabled by default as it
needs to store temporary files for non file:// protocols, which might be
disliked. For your local MP3-collection it loads nicely Artist,
Title, Album etc. from the audio files meta data.
This can be used to add another stemming to solr using stemming files
that are expressed as synonyms for grammatical alternatives. The
synonym/stemming files must have the following form:
- each line is a comma-separated list of synonyms
- the list of synonyms may be enclosed with {} (like the GSA synonyms
file)
- the file may contain comments which are lines starting with a '#'
The synonym file(s) must be placed in DATA/DICTIONARIES/synonyms/ and
are activated by default whenever a synonym file is in place.
Then, for each word that is found in a document all synonyms are added
to a long text field which is stored into synonyms_t. Processes using
the synonyms must query with that field as optional matcher.
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.
Therefore a property like solrConnected() must be true all the time.
Removal of this method causes removal of all write operations to the old
metadata index.
create an document entry. This makes remote search much slower.
- removed synchronization of add method if ip_s is activated to prevent
that a user configuration causes bad behavior. The disadvantage of that
is, that a index dump can cause data loss if an indexing is running
during index dump
- catched more exceptions and more NPE
- better abstraction in MirrorSolrConnector
- slight performance enhancement when only the index count is requested
(rows=0 is sufficient to get a total count)
dump commands
- adjusted the apicall.sh script to get the downloaded text as output to
stdout which is necessary to parse the content out of it
- added indexdump.sh script which creates a solr dump and prints out the
storage path for the index dump
- added synchronization to the Fulltext class to prevent that data is
stored to a non-existing solr index while this index is disabled during
the storage of the dump
- indexUrlMustMatch and indexUrlMustNotMatch which can be used to select
loaded pages for indexing. Default patterns are in such a way that all
loaded pages are also indexed (as before) but when doing an expert crawl
start, then the user may select only specific urls to be indexed.
- crawlerNoDepthLimitMatch is a new pattern that can be used to remove
the crawl depth limitation. This filter a never-match by default (which
causes that the depth is used) but the user can select paths which will
be loaded completely even if a crawl depth is reached.
- a solr field collection_sxt can be used to store a set of crawl tags
- when this field is activated, a crawl tag can be assigned when crawls
are started
- the content of the collection field can be comma-separated, all of
them are assigned to the documents when they are indexed as result of
such a crawl start
- a search result can be drilled down to a specific collection; this is
currently only available in the solr interface and also in the gsa
interface using the 'site' option
- this adds a mandatory field for gsa queries (the google api demands
that field all the time)
- reduced danger that a non-existing RWI database causes NPEs
- added Solr queries to did-you-mean: this makes it possible that our
did-you-mean algorithm works together with only Solr and without RWIs
title_count_i, title_chars_val, title_words_val
description_count_i, description_chars_val, description_words_val
- added many asserts to ensure data type correctness from YaCy to Solr
and vice versa
- made many fixes according to new findings from these asserts (!)
- fixed type definition found by the verifier
- added multivalue-string fields for solr with extension 'sxt'
- added multivalue-integer fields for solr with extension 'val'
- renamed some solr attributes from txt to sxt
- changed solr query line to an explicit AND/OR structure
- added a country code second level domain list to Domains class; with
parser
- added a host string parser to get domain class name, country-code
second-level domain and subdomain out of it
- removed old coordinate attributes
if adminAccountForLocalhost=true leave automatic password unchanged so access from local host is granted but remote access is preventet from the 1st second.
Node to Row objects
- removed peerDeparture in solr remote search in case that peer does not
answer (this may be normal because it is allowed to switch this off)
- when doing a remote search, node peers are selected for solr queries
- the solr query is done concurrently to the standard YaCy rwi search
- the solr search result is feeded into the same data structure that
prepares the rwi search result
- the same remote seach that is done to several outside peers is done to
the local solr index
- the search process works now also without any 'old' RWI data using
solr
solr as fulltext search index.
- added slow migration from old metadata to solr index entries: each
entry from the old metadata is removed from that data structure and
written into solr.
to have a fall-back option in case that memory problems as reported in
http://forum.yacy-websuche.de/viewtopic.php?p=26901#p26901
for full-solr installation are too strong and we have to work with an
'small memory footprint' peer system.
for production as a replacement of the metadata-db.
This intermediate release 1.041 will switch on the previously optional
solr index and the old metadata-db will still work as it did before.
Solr+metadata are accessed in mixed mode, no migration is done yet.
If this causes not a catastrophe until the end of the weekend, we will
do a YaCy 1.1 main release containing this as default.
attached, the metadata is not written to the metadata-db, even if it is
enabled but instead to solr. This prevents that metadata is written in
two store systems at the same time. It is also the next step to migrate
the current metadata-db to solr.
metadata representation from the solr index. This shall replace metadata
from the built-in database in the future.
- added the Solr-driven metadata into the search index of YaCy which
makes it now possible to run YaCy without the old metadata index. This
is a major stept forward to a full migration to Solr.
a rss/opensearch writer and an enhanced solr xml writer.
The enhanced solr writer has less configuration overhead than the
original writer and should by slightly faster. The rss/opensearch writer
is at this time slightly incomplete compared with the already existing
rss search result form YaCy and also snippets are missing at this time.
To test the new interface, open for example:
http://localhost:8090/solr/select?wt=rss&q=olympia
The wt-code for the new result writers are=
wt=rss for opensearch
wt=exml for the enhanced solr xml writer.
Additionally, the SRU search parameters had been added to the solr
interface which can now also be used for a normal solr/xml search.
writings to the Metadata-DB are now also done to solr. This includes
metadata transfer during search and rwi transfer.
The new/added solr fields are:
## time when resource was loaded
load_date_dt
## date until resource shall be considered as fresh
fresh_date_dt
## id of the host, a 6-byte hash that is part of the document id
host_id_s
## ids of referrer to this document
referrer_id_ss
## the md5 of the raw source
md5_s
## the name of the publisher of the document
publisher_t
## the language used in the document; starts with primary language
language_ss
## an external ranking value
ranking_i
## the size of the raw source
size_i
## number of links to audio resources
audiolinkscount_i
## number of links to video resources
videolinkscount_i
## number of links to application resources
applinkscount_i
or will be superfluous or subject of complete redesign after the
migration to solr. Removing these things now will make the transition to
solr more simple.
- by default, a (empty) solr storage instance is created at
SEGMENTS/solr_36
- the index is written if in /IndexFederated_p.html the flag "embedded
solr search index" is switched on
- a standard solr query interface is available now with a new servlet at
http://127.0.0.1:8090/solr/select
To test this, do the following:
- switch to webportal mode
- switch on the feature as described
- do a crawl. this fills the solr index. The normal YaCy search will NOT
work now!
- do a solr query, like:
http://127.0.0.1:8090/solr/select?q=*:*
http://127.0.0.1:8090/solr/select?q=text_t:Help
play with different search fields as you can see in
/IndexFederated_p.html
You can use the standard solr query attributes as described in
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SearchHandler
of the major CPU users during snippet verification. The class was not
efficient for two reasons:
- it used a too complex input stream; generated from sources and UTF8
byte-conversions. The BufferedReader applied a strong overhead.
- to feed data into the SentenceReader, multiple toString/getBytes had
been applied until a buffered Reader from an input stream was possible.
These superfluous conversions had been removed.
- the best source for the Sentence Reader is a String. Therefore the
production of Strings had been forced inside the Document class.
the segments had been there to create a tenant-infrastructure but were
never be used since that was all much too complex. There will be a
replacement using a solr navigation using a segment field in the search
index.
0-values and no empty strings are written). This may save a lot of
memory (in ram and on disc) if excessive 0-values or empty strings
appear)
- do not allow default boolean values for checkboxes because that does
not make sense: browsers may omit the checkbox attribute name if the box
is not checked. A default value 'true' would not comply with the
semantic of the browsers response.
- add a checkbox in IndexFederated_p for the lazy initialization of solr
fields.
- vocabulary annotation is not done any more into the metadata of urldb
- vocabularies are written into the jena triplestore using a rdf
vocabulary
- vocabularies for rdf tripel must be updated; refactoring done
- with the new navigation tags in the triplestore a faster
pre-urldb-lookup is possible: navigation is processed now within the RWI
during pre-ranking retrieval
- added also a Owl vocabulary stub to add the plain-text url to the
triplestore using the owl:sameas predicate
later
- added abstract add, delete, get methods in the triplestore
- added generation of triples after auto-annotation
- migrated all MultiProtocolURI objects to DigestURI in the parser since
the url hash is needed as subject value in the triples in the triple
store
- new limit to use the table copy (instead of flag): 400MB available. If
less is available, then a copy is never used. If more is available, then
it can be used if there is a remaining space of at least 200MB
- flush caches more often: flush the Digest cache
this causes that the table is not initialized when there is no search is
done. the effect is most strong if YaCy is started headless which causes
no browser pop-up which otherwise would load the search page and
therefore trigger the initialization of the table.
- added log warnings in case that search processes run into time-out
situations
- better concurrency for Integer formatter (used a non-synchronized
formatter before)
- bugfix for search termination (a poison pill was missing)
- added timeout parameters for search (again) -> target is, that they
are never reached.
- search request are now made using a map boundary
- search results are only computed for the map boundary
- the number of results is adopted to the results in the visible range
- added a double-buffering for the search result markers
- added a search query option for the search results:
/radius/<lat>/<lon>/<radius>
