Tejas Patil commented on NUTCH-1031: ------------------------------------ The current nutch robots parsing logic is uses the later approach for parsing. Having a new API for passing a list of robots names would be a clean solution. > Delegate parsing of robots.txt to crawler-commons > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-1031 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1031 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Julien Nioche > Assignee: Julien Nioche > Priority: Minor > Labels: robots.txt > Fix For: 1.7 > > Attachments: NUTCH-1031.v1.patch > > > We're about to release the first version of Crawler-Commons > [http://code.google.com/p/crawler-commons/] which contains a parser for > robots.txt files. This parser should also be better than the one we currently > have in Nutch. I will delegate this functionality to CC as soon as it is > available publicly -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
