Previously, in order to load encyclopedia data into the search engine, it was necessary to use the encyclopedia.marginalia.nu converter to first create a .db-file. This isn't very ergonomic, so parts of that code-base was lifted in as a 3rd party library, and conversion from .zim to .db is now done automatically.
The output file name is based on the original filename, plus a crc32 hash and a .db-ending, to ensure we can recycle the data on repeat loads.
The change adds a new column to the MESSAGE_QUEUE table called AUDIT_RELATED_ID. This field is populated transparently, using a dictionary mapping Thread IDs to Message IDs, populated by the inbox handlers.
The existing RELATED_ID field has too many semantics associated with them,
among other things the FSM code uses them this field in tracking state changes.
The change set also improves the consistency of inbox names. The IndexClient was buggy and populated its outbox with a UUID. This is fixed. All Service2Service outboxes are now prefixed with 'pp:' to make them even easier to differentiate.
It's a confusing default behavior.
This was off for nodes n>1 before as a bandaid since querying indices with no data caused delays and errors. This has been fixed now, so there's no need to do this anymore!
This improves query times, and gets rid of exceptions in the logs when one of the index nodes doesn't have any data loaded, yet is configured to answer queries.
In some scenarios, such as when restoring storage items from json-manifest on db failure, the file storage view would present the items in a non-chronological order. Added a sort() operation to mitigate this.
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.
The EC_DOMAIN_LINK table is deprecated and slated for removal, use QueryClient.getAllDomainLinks() instead.
The ExportDataActor now uses the QueryClient appropriately. The CSV format was also changed to quote the values, to prevent e.g. Excel from interpreting the comma as a decimal separator when previewing the file.
Finally the form for triggering an export was overhauled.
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.
