[jira] [Commented] (NUTCH-1971) The crawldb.url.filters property is not present in any configuration file

["Sebastian Nagel (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1971?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14371018#comment-14371018 ] 

Sebastian Nagel commented on NUTCH-1971:
----------------------------------------

+1 Since NUTCH-1786 crawldb.url.filters and crawldb.url.normalizers can be set via configuration properties. Before they have been purely temporary properties to pass settings from command-line arguments to map/reduce jobs. Yes, it's possible to set (and overwrite!) these properties via command-line options ({{nutch updatedb ... \[-filter\]  \[-normalize\]}}). Maybe the fact that they can be overwritten should be noted, preferable in the command-line help, not in nutch-default.xml.

> In CrawlDbFilter.java there is a line for getting a boolean that sets if the filters are going to be applied or not: 
>   public static final String URL_FILTERING = "crawldb.url.filters";
> However in nutch-default.xml that property is not present. Currently the only way to set this value is using the -filter parameter from the command line. 
> The same applies to:  
> public static final String URL_NORMALIZING = "crawldb.url.normalizers";
> public static final String URL_NORMALIZING_SCOPE = "crawldb.url.normalizers.scope";
