Also ensure authentication is not lost by Digest timeout when navigating
between index.html and search results page.
This way, running searches with extended features on a remote peer or a
password protected peer works with a regular user (with "Extended
search" rights).
When authenticating on the search page with a user without "Extended
search" rights, it appears as authenticated, but has just its usual
access to the public search features.
Thus eventually including the same optional login link/status in the
search start page than in the results page, for the same convenient
login without the need to use the Administration section.
Restores the behavior introduced eleven years ago (see commit
479861a3cf) and lost by mistake 3 years
ago (see commit 617dd9c97b), when the
click handler started referencing a missing HTML id.
This is a fix for mantis 766 ( http://mantis.tokeek.de/view.php?id=766 )
Since the upgrade to Digest authentication, access to protected search
features was indeed disabled once the Digest nonce timed out.
After Digest auth timeout the browser no more sent authentication
information and as the search results page is not private, protected
features were simply be hidden without asking browser again for
authentication.
Adding a supplementary parameter when accessing the search results as
authenticated fixes this.
This enables keyword navigator to filter on keywords. Added search page
output and layout config for keywords, allowing e.g. in Intranet use
to display the keywords. No styling or links applied to the keyword
text (but is desirable possibly in combination with bootstrap-tagsinput
for future/intranet).
This pages were already no more XHTML 1.0 because made use of the HTML5
syntax and elements.
Applied current (2016) HTML standard recommended Doctype declaration
(see https://www.w3.org/TR/html/syntax.html#the-doctype ).
This ensure consistency between the index link and the
opensearchdescription, even when switching language after having added
your YaCy peer to the browser engines list.
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.
- date navigation
The date is taken from the CONTENT of the documents / web pages, NOT
from a date submitted in the context of metadata (i.e. http header or
html head form). This makes it possible to search for documents in the
future, i.e. when documents contain event descriptions for future
events.
The date is written to an index field which is now enabled by default.
All documents are scanned for contained date mentions.
To visualize the dates for a specific search results, a histogram
showing the number of documents for each day is displayed. To render
these histograms the morris.js library is used. Morris.js requires also
raphael.js which is now also integrated in YaCy.
The histogram is now also displayed in the index browser by default.
To select a specific range from a search result, the following modifiers
had been introduced:
from:<date>
to:<date>
These modifiers can be used separately (i.e. only 'from' or only 'to')
to describe an open interval or combined to have a closed interval. Both
dates are inclusive. To select a specific single date only, use the
'to:' - modifier.
The histogram shows blue and green lines; the green lines denot weekend
days (saturday and sunday).
Clicking on bars in the histogram has the following reaction:
1st click: add a from:<date> modifier for the date of the bar
2nd click: add a to:<date> modifier for the date of the bar
3rd click: remove from and date modifier and set a on:<date> for the bar
When the on:<date> modifier is used, the histogram shows an unlimited
time period. This makes it possible to click again (4th click) which is
then interpreted as a 1st click again (sets a from modifier).
The display feature is NOT switched on by default; to switch it on use
the /ConfigSearchPage_p.html servlet.
- with search modifier /heuristic a request is send to all configured opensearch target systems (old /heuristic/blekko modifier not longer valid)
- this allows to use opensearch heuristic on individual search request (in contrast to configuration HEURISTIC_OPENSEARCH=true which sends a osd request on all global searches
- the index.html searchoption text adjusted to be displayed only if option configured
- add Archive-It to predefined systems
possible
- re-implemented formerly jquery-based tagcloud with simple html
- fixed minimized menu for mobile/minimized view (try that: make window
very narrow...)
- 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)
- 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)
switch between p2p search and the 'stealth mode' which is simply a
non-p2p search within the p2p network. The functionality was there all
the time, but the switch to this was not very visible.

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.
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.
