Sebastian Nagel commented on NUTCH-1772:
----------------------------------------
+1 (works)
NUTCH-1712 would remove one of the two jobs even if there is already a CrawlDb:
but there are open points (mainly the missing MapFileOutputFormat in Hadoop
1.2.0 / new MapReduce-API).
> Injector does not need merging if no pre-existing crawldb

> Key: NUTCH-1772
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1772
> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: injector
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Julien Nioche
> Attachments: NUTCH-1772.patch
>
>
> The injector currently works as following :
> * MapReduce job 1 - Mapper : converts input lines into CrawlDatum objects
> with normalisation and filtering
> * MapReduce job 1 - Reducer : identity reducers. Can still have duplicates at
> this stage
> * MapReducer job 2 - Mapper : CrawlDbFilter on existing crawldb (if any) +
> output of previous job
> * MapReducer job 2 - Reducer : deduplication
> If there is no existing crawldb (which will often be the case at injection
> time) we don't really need to do the second mapreduce job and could simply
> take the output of the MR job #1 as CrawlDB provided that we do the
> deduplication as part of the reduce step.
> If there is a crawldb then the reduce step of the MR job #1 is not really
> needed and we could have that step as map only.
