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.
This commit extracts several previously hardcoded configuration properties, and makes then available through system.properties.
The documentation is updated to reflect the change.
Dead code was also removed in the process. CrawlSpecGenerator is left feeling a bit over-engineered still, since it's built for a more general case, where all other implementations but the current one are removed, but we'll leave it like this for now as it's fairly readable still.
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.
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.
This commit overhauls a lot of the UX for the control service, adding a new actions menu to the nodes views. It has many small tweaks to make the work flow better.
It also adds a new /uploads directory in each index node, from which sideloaded data can be selected. This is a bit of a breaking change, as this directory needs to exist in each index node.
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.
The new converter logic assumes that the crawl data is ordered where the domain record comes first, and then a sequence of document records. This is true for the new parquet format, but not for the old zstd/gson format.
To make the new converter compatible with the old format, a specialized reader is introduced that scans for the domain record before running through the sequence of document records; and presenting them in the new order.
This is slower than just reading the file beginning to end, so in order to retain performance when this ordering isn't necessary, a CompatibilityLevel flag is added to CrawledDomainReader, permitting the caller to decide how compatible the data needs to be.
Down the line when all the old data is purged, this should be removed, as it amounts to technical debt.
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.
Added functionality to remove processes from listing that have not checked in for over a day. A 'removeProcessHeartbeat' function was created to delete the respective entry from the PROCESS_HEARTBEAT table in case heartbeats are absent for more than one day.
This variable had a very confusing name, and was dangerously easy to use in the wrong place with the result of getting something that only works as expected half the time.
Ideally this class needs an overhaul, the assumptions it makes about domain names aren't great.
This commit is in a pretty rough state. It refactors the crawler fairly significantly to offer better separation of concerns. It replaces the zstd compressed json files used to store crawl data with WARC files entirely, and the converter is modified to be able to consume this data. This works, -ish.
There appears to be some bug relating to reading robots.txt, and the X-Robots-Tag header is no longer processed either.
A problem is that the WARC files are a bit too large. It will probably be likely to introduce a new format to store the crawl data long term, something like parquet; and use WARCs for intermediate storage to enable the crawler to be restarted without needing a recrawl.
This update includes the integration of the jwarc library and implements support for Warc file sideloading, as a first trial integration with this library.
The repartition endpoint was mis-addressing its mqapi notifications, omitting the proper nodeId. In fixing this, it became apparent that having both @MqRequest and @MqNotification is a serious footgun, and the two should be unified into a single API where the caller isn't burdened with knowledge of the remote end's implementation specifics.
