Adds experimental sideloading support for pusshift.io style reddit data. This dataset is limited to data older than 2023, due to licensing changes making large-scale data extraction difficult.
Since the median post quality on reddit is not very good, he sideloader will only load a subset of self-texts and top-level comments that have sufficiently many upvotes. Empirically this appears to mostly return good matches, even if it probably could index more.
Tests were written for this, but all require local reddit data which can't be distributed with the source code. If these can not be found, the tests will shortcircuit as OK. They're mostly there for debugging, and it's fine if they don't always run.
The change also refactors the sideloading a bit since it was a bit messy.
* (executor-api) Make executor API talk GRPC
The executor's REST API was very fragile and annoying to work with, lacking even basic type safety. Migrate to use GRPC instead. GRPC is a bit of a pain with how verbose it is, but that is probably a lesser evil. This is a fairly straightforward change, but it's also large so a solid round of testing is needed...
The change set breaks out the GrpcStubPool previously residing in the QueryService, and makes it available to all clients.
ServiceId.name was also renamed to avoid the very dangerous clash with Enum.name().
The boilerplate needed for grpc was also extracted into a common gradle file for inclusion into the appropriate build.gradle-files.
This changeset adds an action for downloading a set of sample data from downloads.marginalia.nu.
It also refactors out some leaky abstractions out of FileStorageService. allocateTemporaryStorage has been renamed allocateStorage. The storage was never temporary in any scenario...
It also doesn't take a storage base, as there was always only one valid option for this input. The allocateStorage method finds the appropriate base itself.
Removed the need to have to run an external tool to pre-process the data in order to load stackexchange-style data into the search engine.
Removed the tool itself.
This stirred up some issues with the dependencies, that were due to both third-party:ing xz and importing it as a dependency. This has been fixed, and :third-party:xz was removed.
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.
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 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.
This turned out to be very difficult to do in small isolated steps.
* Design overhaul of the control gui using bootstrap
* Move the actors out of control-service into to a new executor-service, that can be run on multiple nodes
* Add node-affinity to message queue
