Use a system.properties file to configure the system. This is loaded statically by MainClass or ProcessMainClass. Update the property names to be more consistent, and update the documentations to reflect the changes.
Several tests were manually running migrations in a large copy-paste blob of code. This makes the test less useful as it's possible to break the code while keeping the tests green by introducing a new migration that never gets run in the tests, and it's also difficult to reason about what the tests are doing.
A new test helper library is introduced with a TestMigrationLoader that can both run Flyway migrations, or load specific migrations in the cases a specific set of migrations need to be loaded. Existing tests are migrated to use the new code.
The changeset also makes the control service responsible for flyway migrations. This helps reduce the number of places the database configuration needs to be spread out. These automatic migrations can be disabled with -DdisableFlyway=true.
The commit also adds curl to the docker container, to enable docker health checks and interdependencies.
This was caused by incorrect usage of the renderInto() function, which was always buggy and should never be used. This method is removed with this change.

The EC_DOMAIN_LINK MariaDB table stores links between domains. This is problematic, as both updating and querying this table is very slow in relation to how small the data is (~10 GB). This slowness is largely caused by the database enforcing ACID guarantees we don't particularly need.
This changeset replaces the EC_DOMAIN_LINK table with a file in each index node containing 32 bit integer pairs corresponding to links between two domains. This file is loaded in memory in each node, and can be queried via the Query Service.
A migration step is needed before this file is created in each node. Until that happens, the actual data is loaded from the EC_DOMAIN_LINK table, but accessed as though it was a file.
The changeset also migrates/renames the links.db file to documents.db to avoid naming confusion between the two.
Modified site info feed template to secure the description field against injected code. Also adjusted search service by extracting samples within the correct scope and including them in the returned site info. This improves the quality and security of the displayed information.
This change integrates the Feedlot RSS Bot with Marginalia's site info view to offer a preview of the latest updates.
The change introduces a new tiny feature that is a feedlot-client based on Java's HttpClient.
This is for filtering results on how many times the term appears on the domain. The intent is to be beneficial in creating e.g. a domain search feature. It's also very helpful when tracking down spammy domains.
We do both ip2location and ASN data.
The change also adds some keywords based on autonomous system information, on a somewhat experimental basis. It would be neat to be able to e.g. exclude cloud services or just e.g. cloudflare from the search results.
The code now intercepts and deals with potential exceptions during the parsing of search parameters. This is in response to constant bad requests from bots which were cluttering the logs. A catch clause is added that suppresses these errors and redirects to the base URL.
The site info view can't blindly assume that every website supports https. To figure out which schema to use when linking to a site, execute a single-result search for site:domain.name and then grab the schema off the result.
To allow this, a count parameter is introduced to doSiteSearch() in SearchOperator.
In this commit, GeoIP-related classes are refactored and relocated to a common library as they are shared across multiple services.
The crawler is refactored to enable the GeoIpBlocklist to use the new GeoIpDictionary as the base of its decisions.
The converter is modified ot query this data to add a geoip:-keyword to documents to permit limiting a search to the country of the hosting server.
The commit also adds due BY-SA attribution in the search engine footer for the source of the IP geolocation data.
This commit also fixes a bug in the loader where the IP field wouldn't always populate as intended, and refactors the DomainInformationService to use significantly fewer SQL queries.
The previous version used a personalized pagerank centering on a few academic domains, but this didn't work very well and most results were not very academia-centric.
