Julien Nioche commented on NUTCH-2012: -------------------------------------- +1 to merging them into a more generic tool. Most of the code in these 2 classes is the same. We could add a few options e.g. not to display the fields generated for the indexing > Merge parsechecker and indexchecker > ----------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-2012 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2012 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.10 > Reporter: Sebastian Nagel > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.11 > > > ParserChecker and IndexingFiltersChecker have evolved from simple tools to > check parsers and parsefilters resp. indexing filters to powerful tools which > emulate the crawling of a single URL/document: > - check robots.txt (NUTCH-2002) > - follow redirects (NUTCH-2004) > Keeping both tools in sync takes extra work (cf. NUTCH-1757/NUTCH-2006, also > NUTCH-2002, NUTCH-2004 are done only for parsechecker). It's time to merge > them > * either into one general debugging tool, keeping parsechecker and > indexchecker as aliases > * centralize common code in one utility class -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
