Hi,
i know you are working in the new "plugin system", osgi etc. but i
want to talk about new extension points.
I think it would be helpfully if we have for example an extension
point IPreCrawl and IPostCrawl. This extension points can be use to
implement some helpfully jobs.
For example before starting a new crawl one implementation of
IPreCrawl could be
+ export urls from a "database" in a url file for inject this file
into the crawldb
+ or create statistics.
If a crawl is finished one implementation of IPostCrawl could be
+ restart search servers
+ switch index
+ create statistics from this complete crawl
+ or sending email or whatever to an administrator...
Also i think statistics of a segment or the crawldb are very important
to get an overview about the url room. So maybe an other
extensionPoint (e.g. ISegmentStatistic) can be used to create
statistics for every segment after this segment is fetched.
What do you think? Any comments?
Thanks
Marko
