-------------------------------------
Hi Sujen and Chris.
I think I'm missing something in this API. Looking through, most of the
services seem to require a "full path" to the file that should be read. This
seems like both a security risk (allowing the user to read arbitrary files on
the file system) and an unnecessary load on the API. Does Nutch have some
concept of a "root" directory for each configuration?
Also, it's not clear how to get a listing of the link, node, and sequence
files. Is this available somewhere else in the REST API? How would I (as a
REST interface user) know what path to provide?
