             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?  *
