Hi all,
I've been hanging around the community in the background for a few months now
using and browsing the Nutch-1.2 source code. Nutch is a wonderful software
many thanks to the Nutch Dev team and the community for this wonderful software.
This is my situation:
I have a working copy of the Nutch-1.2 binary source code. I managed to set it
up for whole web crawl Bootstrapping from the DMOZ database as per the pre
Nutch-1.3 wiki. Also I have integrated my copy with Solr as per Sami Siren blog
at Lucid Imagination site this is a very nice combination. I am pleased with
Nutch-1.2 and I dont' want to upgrade to Nutch 1.3. Now I want to integrated
the Bing API into my copy of Nutch-1.2. But I don't know how to do this. I've
been reading about the Nutch plug in architecture and follow some examples also
found tons of information on the web about Nutch but could find nothing that
could help me.
My questions are:
what would be the best way to go about to implement the Bing API?Should I
attempt to write a plugin and point my plugin.xml file extensions to the
existing extension-points? And which core extension-points should I use?Or
should I attempted to hard code the Bing API source into the existing Nutch
Java at nutch-1.2.src\src\java\org\apache\nutch\searcher?
I am looking for some guidance. Any help or helpful links that can help me to
accomplish this will be appreciated.
Thanks
