Lewis John McGibbney commented on NUTCH-1941: --------------------------------------------- Hi [~asitang], a better way to implement the agent name would be to mimic browser names instead of a counter. > Optional rolling http.agent.name's > ---------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-1941 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1941 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: fetcher, protocol > Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: NUTCH-1941-ver1.patch, agent.names.txt, nutch.patch > > > In some scenarios, even whilst adhering to fetcher.crawl.delay, web admins > can block your fetcher based merely on your crawler name. > I propose the ability to implement rolling http.agent.name's which could be > substituted every 5 seconds for example. This would mean that successive > requests to the same domain would be sent with different http.agent.name. > This behavior should be off by default. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
