Class CrawlDbMerger

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configured

org.apache.nutch.crawl.CrawlDbMerger

All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, Tool

public class CrawlDbMerger
extends Configured
implements Tool

This tool merges several CrawlDb-s into one, optionally filtering URLs through the current URLFilters, to skip prohibited pages.

It's possible to use this tool just for filtering - in that case only one CrawlDb should be specified in arguments.

If more than one CrawlDb contains information about the same URL, only the most recent version is retained, as determined by the value of CrawlDatum.getFetchTime(). However, all metadata information from all versions is accumulated, with newer values taking precedence over older values.
