Christophe Noel commented on NUTCH-173:
---------------------------------------

We are TENS of nutch users using this precious patch.

Most of nutch users are not making whole-web search engine (too much hardware 
needed) but are willing to develop dedicated search engines.

We crawl sometimes 1000, sometimes 25000 web servers and it really slow down 
the crawling with 25000 entries in prefix-urlfilter.

This patch is NEEDED !

> There is two major way of crawl in Nutch.
> Intranet Crawl : forbidden all, allow somes few host
> Whole-web crawl : allow all, forbidden few thinks
> I propose a third type of crawl.
> Directory Crawl : The purpose of this crawl is to manage few thousands of 
> host wihtout managing rules pattern in UrlFilterRegexp.
> I made two patch for : 0.7, 0.7.1 and 0.8-dev
> I propose a new boolean property in nutch-site.xml : 
> crawl.ignore.external.links, with false value at default.
> By default this new feature don't modify the behavior of nutch crawler.
> When you setup this property to true, the crawler don't fetch external links 
> of the host.
> So the crawl is limited to the host that you inject at the beginning at the 
> crawl.
> I know there is some proposal of new crawl policy using the CrawlDatum in 
> 0.8-dev branch. 
> This feature colud be a easiest way to add quickly new crawl feature to 
> nutch, waiting for a best way to improve crawl policy.
> I post two patch.
