Re: [Dspace-tech] spider ip recognition
Thanks for the info Hardy. I just discovered that Jira issue yesterday. I'll
probably use your approach for our own stats, but I'm sure other sites would
benefit from domain/agent handling when running stats-util -m or stats-util
-i (as described in the issue).
Best,
Anthony

Hi, you've run into a known issue, and one I very recently wrestled with myself:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-2431
See my last comment on that ticket, I found a way around the issue, by simply
deleting the spider docs from the stats index via a query in the Solr admin
interface.

Hi again,
Unfortunately, the documentation for the stats-util command is incorrect.
Specifically this line:
-i or --delete-spiders-by-ip: Delete Spiders in Solr By IP Address, DNS name,
or Agent name. Will prune out all records that match spider identification
patterns.
Running stats-util -i does not actually remove spiders by DNS name or Agent
name. Here's are the relevant sections of the code, from StatisticsClient.java
and SolrLogger.java:
(...)
else if(line.hasOption('i'))
{
SolrLogger.deleteRobotsByIP();
}
public static void deleteRobotsByIP()
{
for(String ip : SpiderDetector.getSpiderIpAddresses()){
deleteIP(ip);
}
}
What this means is that, if a spider is in your Solr stats, there's no way to
remove it other than manually adding its IP to [dpsace]/config/spiders; adding
its DNS name or Agent name to the configs will not expunge it. Updating the
spider files with stats-util -u does little to help because the IP lists it
pulls from are out of date.
An example is the spider from the Bing search engine: bingbot. As of DSpace
4.3, it's not in the list of spiders by DNS name or Agent name, nor is it in
the list of spider IP addresses. So anyone running DSpace 4.3 likely has usage
stats inflated by visits from this spider. The only way to remove it is to
specify all the IPs for bingbot. Multiply that by all the other new spiders
and we're talking about a lot of work.
I tried briefly to modify the code to take domains/agents into account when
marking or deleting spiders, but I wasn't able to figure out how to query Solr
with regex patterns. It's easier to do with IPs because each IP or IP range is
transformed into a String and used as a standard query parameter.

Since dspace 4 you can filter by userAgent
see
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/SOLR+Statistics+Maintenance#SOLRStatisticsMaintenance-FilteringandPruningSpiders
I have not used this myself and am not sure whether these filters are applied
as crawlers access content - or whether you need to run the
[dspace]/bin/dspace stats-util command on a regular basis. You definitely need
to run it to prune mark usage events after you configure
a list of userAgents you want to filter against.

Re: [Dspace-tech] spider ip recognition
We're having a similar problem (DSpace 4.3). Here's an example: http://www.ruor.uottawa.ca/handle/10393/23938/statistics. These stats seem high for this item (although we could be wrong about that), but what's more peculiar is all the traffic from China. We've run through all the options for the stats-util command but the numbers remain the same. Note that when we run stats-util - u (update the IP lists), we always get the message Not modified - so not downloaded. I'm guessing that the spider lists by domain name or user-agent are more current? Anyway, we want to determine whether these stats are bona fide or whether there's something wrong with the spider detection. From the documentation it seems we have to query Solr directly to do this. Not being an expert in Solr, I'm hoping someone on this list could provide the query that retrieves *all the stats for a given item* (i.e. what's listed under Common stored fields for all usage events in the documentation).

What version of DSpace are you running? Recent versions can also recognize spiders by regular expression matching of the domain name or UserAgent: string. (However, that only works for new entries. I've recently found that some of the tools for loading and grooming the stat.s core don't use SpiderDetector and are oblivious of these newer patterns.) Also: does the dspace code gracefully deal with IP address patterns ? That depends on what is considered graceful. The code (in org.dspace.statistics.util.IPTable) accepts patterns in three forms: 11.22.33.44-11.22.33.55 11.22.33.44 11.22.33 Addresses in the first form may be suffixed with a CIDR mask-length, but it is currently ignored. If I've understood the code, a range (the first form) is assumed to differ only in the fourth octet. It will match all addresses between 44 and 55 within the /24 containing the start of the range. The second form is an exact match of a single address. The third form is a match of the first 24 bits -- an entire Class C subnet. There is no provision for IPv6. -- Mark H.

Re: [Dspace-tech] spider ip recognition

The best I saw was: http://myip.ms/info/bots/Google_Bing_Yahoo_Facebook_etc_Bot_IP_Addresses.html Is that reliable ? Does anybody out there have lists / sources that they can share ? What version of DSpace are you running? Recent versions can also recognize spiders by regular expression matching of the domain name or UserAgent: string. (However, that only works for new entries. I've recently found that some of the tools for loading and grooming the stat.s core don't use SpiderDetector and are oblivious of these newer patterns.) Also: does the dspace code gracefully deal with IP address patterns ? That depends on what is considered graceful. The code (in org.dspace.statistics.util.IPTable) accepts patterns in three forms: 11.22.33.44-11.22.33.55 11.22.33.44 11.22.33 Addresses in the first form may be suffixed with a CIDR mask-length, but it is currently ignored. If I've understood the code, a range (the first form) is assumed to differ only in the fourth octet. It will match all addresses between 44 and 55 within the /24 containing the start of the range. The second form is an exact match of a single address. The third form is a match of the first 24 bits -- an entire Class C subnet. There is no provision for IPv6. -- Mark H.
