Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Nutch Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by SamiSiren: http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/NutchOSGi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ == Short term goals == - * Evaluate how OSGi (more specifically [http://incubator.apache.org/felix/ Apache Felix]) could fit in nutch, perhaps the easiest place to start are is the plugin system and plugins + * Evaluate how OSGi (more specifically [http://cwiki.apache.org/FELIX/index.html Apache Felix]) could fit in nutch, perhaps the easiest place to start are is the plugin system and plugins - * Add support to use OSGi bundles as nutch plugins + * Build minimal prototype system that can complete full crawling cyckle + * Verify that required actions could be done non intrusively, eg. nutch-osgi must not introduce any changes to nutch or hadoop (but can of course bring up things discovered and "wishlist" to these projects to make life easier for nutch-osgi) + + * Add support to use OSGi bundles as nutch plugins (if applicable) + + == What has been done so far == + + Build system was mavenized. Required jars were grouped together and packaged as OSGi-bundles, packaking was made with maven2 and with help of maven-osgi-plugin. (maven2 is not required but IMO it makes things easier) + + == Bundles and their contents == + ||'''bundle'''||'''jars'''|| + ||nutch-hadoop||hadoop-0.9.0-SNAPSHOT,hadoop-0.5.1-SNAPSHOT|| + ||hadoop-nutch-common-deps||jetty-5.1.4,lucene-misc-1.9.1,lucene.core-1.9.1,commons-cli-2.0-SNAPSHOT,commons-logging-1.0.2,log4j-1.2.13|| + ||nutch-deps||concurrent-1.3.4,commons-lang-2.1,oro-2.0.4|| + ||protocol-http||lib-http-0.9.0-SNAPSHOT.jar,protocol-http-0.9.0-SNAPSHOT|| + ||scoring-opic||scoring-opic-0.9.0-SNAPSHOT|| + ||urlfilter-prefix||urlfilter-prefix-0.9.0-SNAPSHOT|| + ||nutch-osgi-adapter||Contains custom code required to run nutch inside OSGi container|| + + == Identified gluecode (so far) == + + [NutchOSGiConfiguration] Acts as a Decorator for [http://lucene.apache.org/hadoop/docs/api/org/apache/hadoop/conf/Configuration.html Configuration] object. Adjusts classpath so that Configuration object can find the configuration files from inside bundle (hadoop-default.xml, hadoop-site.xml, nutch-default.xml, nutch-site.xml)| + + [PluginHelper] Listens for bundle activations and registers plugin-bundles as plugins into nutch plugin system (osgi plugins cannot depend on any non OSGi plugin) + + [OSGIPluginDescriptor] Adapts bundle to [http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/nutch-nightly/docs/api/org/apache/nutch/plugin/PluginDescriptor.html PluginDescriptor] + + [OSGiExtension] Adapts bundle to [http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/nutch-nightly/docs/api/org/apache/nutch/plugin/Extension.html Extension] + + [OSGiPlugin] Adapts bundle to [http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/nutch-nightly/docs/api/org/apache/nutch/plugin/Plugin.html Plugin] + + == Some observations, ideas during the (still continung) trip == + + Hadoop Configuration should really be made Interface ([http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-24 HADOOP-24]) and some other configuration method (but files inside jars) should be invented so we can separate nutch and hadoop to two bundles. This would allow us to run different configurations (different versions of each package/bundle) more easily. + + Current nutch script propably need to be (re)implemented with java as there will propably be one front door to enter (start) OSGi nutch + + It would be nice if lucene and hadoop were "natively" build as osgi bundles, all this requires is a custom manifest inside .jar. It would + also be nice if lucene family would automatically build and deploy packages to m2 repositories. + == Related reading == - [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-hadoop-dev/200606.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Message] in hadoop-dev mailing list. + * [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-hadoop-dev/200606.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Message] in hadoop-dev mailing list. + * [http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/Blockathon2005Report Cocoon] goes OSGi
