The Javadoc directories are directly under the apache.org/core and apache.org/solr directories, and so to find the latest javadocs you have to crawl the main html and hunt for them. Or, the code crawler has to be maintained with the links for the current releases.
Would it be possible to move javadocs to a subdirectory? That way, code crawlers can just crawl that directory and always find the latest released javadocs. For example: http://lucene.apache.org/releases/4_0_0/core/ tutorial.html etc. http://lucene.apache.org/releases/4_0_0/core/api http://lucene.apache.org/releases/4_0_0/solr/ tutorial.html etc. http://lucene.apache.org/releases/4_0_0/core/api ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Robert Muir" <[email protected]> | To: [email protected] | Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2012 5:17:25 PM | Subject: Re: broken links on the site | | FYI I think we fixed these! the "hossman broken link detector" only | finds 10 broken links on staging, all of which are false failures due | to the way we deploy javadocs | (http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/ReleaseTodo#Push_javadocs_to_the_CMS_production_tree): | | Found 10 broken links. | | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/solr/4_0_0/tutorial.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/solr/api-3_6_1/ | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/core/4_0_0/index.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/core/4_0_0/changes/Changes.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/solr/4_0_0/ | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/core/3_6_1/gettingstarted.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/core/3_6_1/index.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/solr/4_0_0/changes/Changes.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/solr/api-3_6_1/doc-files/tutorial.html | http://lucene.staging.apache.org/core/4_0_0/demo/overview-summary.html | | | On Thu, Oct 11, 2012 at 7:05 PM, Robert Muir <[email protected]> | wrote: | > Thanks a lot for running this! | > | >> ..and this uncovered some genuine broken links that we should try | >> to fix at | >> some point (see below) but unfortunately this really simple wget | >> approach | >> doens't tell you *where* the broken link comes from -- just have | >> to do a bit | >> of intuition/grepping. | > | > Right but at least for now we can take stabs at fixing things and | > then | > see if the number goes down. | | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] | For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] | | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
