Re: [Nutch-dev] [jira] Created: (NUTCH-408) Plugin development documentation

2006-11-25 Thread Armel T. Nene
I agree with you that documentation is vital not the just extending the
current version but also for any plugins and patches created. I have been
spending almost two weeks trying to adapt nutch to my project but I spend
more time in reading code and trying to understand what they do before I can
even start to fix problem. Come on guys, documentation is good coding
practice, we can't read your mind to know exactly what you were trying to
achieve by just looking at the implementation code.

This is just a good constructive criticism.

Plugin development documentation


 Key: NUTCH-408
 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-408
 Project: Nutch
  Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.8.1
 Environment: Linux Fedora
Reporter: nutch.newbie


Documentation is rare! But very vital for extending current (0.9) nutch.
Current docs on the wiki for 0.7 plugin development was good but it doesn't
apply to 0.9 and new developers who are joining directly 0.9 find the 0.7
documentation not enough. A more practical plugin writing documentation for
0.9 is desired also exposing the plugin principals in practical terms i.e.
extension points and libs etc. furthermore it would be good to provide some
best practice example i.e. 

look for the lib you are planning to use if its already in lib folder and
maybe that version of the external lib is good for the plugin dev rather
then using another version things like that..

Nothing big, but it will give you some ideas, also about plugins.
