DeleteDuplicates based on crawlDB only ---------------------------------------
Key: NUTCH-656 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-656 Project: Nutch Issue Type: Wish Components: indexer Reporter: julien nioche The existing dedup functionality relies on Lucene indices and can't be used when the indexing is delegated to SOLR. I was wondering whether we could use the information from the crawlDB instead to detect URLs to delete then do the deletions in an indexer-neutral way. As far as I understand the content of the crawlDB contains all the elements we need for dedup, namely : * URL * signature * fetch time * score In map-reduce terms we would have two different jobs : * read crawlDB and compare on URLs : keep only most recent element - oldest are stored in a file and will be deleted later * read crawlDB and have a map function generating signatures as keys and URL + fetch time +score as value * reduce function would depend on which parameter is set (i.e. use signature or score) and would output as list of URLs to delete This assumes that we can then use the URLs to identify documents in the indices. Any thoughts on this? Am I missing something? Julien -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
