Semyon Semyonov created NUTCH-2441: -------------------------------------- Summary: ARG_SEGMENT usage Key: NUTCH-2441 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2441 Project: Nutch Issue Type: Improvement Components: metadata Affects Versions: 1.13 Reporter: Semyon Semyonov Fix For: 1.14
The class metadata/Nutch.java public static final String ARG_SEGMENT = "segment" is not used correctly. In some cases Fetcher and ParseSegment it is interpreted as a single segmenet, in others CrawlDb, LinkDb, IndexingJob as an array of segments. Such misunderstanding leads to inconsistency of usage of the parameter. After a discussion with [~wastl-nagel] the proposed solution is to allow the usage of both array and a string in all cases. That gives an opportunity to not introduce the broken changes. A path is proposed. *The question left is refactoring, all these five components share the same code(two versions of the same code to be precise). Shouldn't we extract a method and reduce duplicates? * -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
