* If you change a nutch 2 configuration, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16401667/java-lang-classnotfoundexception-org-apache-gora-hbase-store-hbasestore
explains you can rebuild nutch with:

     ant clean
     ant runtime
----------------------------------
Apache Nutch 2 with newer HBase

hbase-common-1.4.8.jar

1. hbase jar files need to go into runtime/local/lib

But not slf4j-log4j12-1.7.10.jar (there's already a slf4j-log4j12-1.7.5.jar) - so remove that from runtime/local/lib after copying it over.

https://lobster1234.github.io/2017/08/14/search-with-nutch-mongodb-solr/ ## most useful for running nutch 2.x crawls

https://www.mobomo.com/2017/06/the-basics-working-with-nutch-2-x/
    "Fetch

    This is where the magic happens.  During the fetch step, Nutch crawls the urls selected in the generate step.  The most important argument you need is -threads: this sets the number of fetcher threads per task.  Increasing this will make crawling faster, but setting it too high can overwhelm a site and it might shut out your crawler, as well as take up too much memory from your machine.  Run it like this:
    $ nutch fetch -threads 50"


https://examples.javacodegeeks.com/enterprise-java/apache-hadoop/apache-hadoop-nutch-tutorial/
https://www.yegor256.com/2019/04/17/nutch-from-java.html

http://nutch.sourceforge.net/docs/en/tutorial.html

Intranet: Configuration
To configure things for intranet crawling you must:

    Create a flat file of root urls. For example, to crawl the nutch.org site you might start with a file named urls containing just the Nutch home page. All other Nutch pages should be reachable from this page. The urls file would thus look like:

    http://www.nutch.org/

    Edit the file conf/crawl-urlfilter.txt and replace MY.DOMAIN.NAME with the name of the domain you wish to crawl. For example, if you wished to limit the crawl to the nutch.org domain, the line should read:

    +^http://([a-z0-9]*\.)*nutch.org/

    This will include any url in the domain nutch.org.

Intranet: Running the Crawl
Once things are configured, running the crawl is easy. Just use the crawl command. Its options include:

    -dir dir names the directory to put the crawl in.
    -depth depth indicates the link depth from the root page that should be crawled.
    -delay delay determines the number of seconds between accesses to each host.
    -threads threads determines the number of threads that will fetch in parallel.

For example, a typical call might be:

bin/nutch crawl urls -dir crawl.test -depth 3 >& crawl.log

Typically one starts testing one's configuration by crawling at low depths, and watching the output to check that desired pages are found. Once one is more confident of the configuration, then an appropriate depth for a full crawl is around 10. <===========

Once crawling has completed, one can skip to the Searching section below.


-----------------------------------
Actually running nutch 2.x - steps
-----------------------------------
MANUALLY GOING THROUGH THE CYCLE 3 TIMES:

cd ~/apache-nutch-2.3.1/runtime/local

./bin/nutch inject urls

./bin/nutch generate -topN 50
./bin/nutch fetch -all
./bin/nutch parse -all
./bin/nutch updatedb -all

./bin/nutch generate -topN 50
./bin/nutch fetch -all
./bin/nutch parse -all
./bin/nutch updatedb -all

./bin/nutch generate -topN 50
./bin/nutch fetch -all
./bin/nutch parse -all
./bin/nutch updatedb -all

Dump output on local filesystem:
    rm -rf /tmp/bla
    ./bin/nutch readdb -dump /tmp/bla [-crawlId ID -text]
    less /tmp/bla/part-r-00000

To dump output on local filesystem:
   Need hdfs host name if sending/dumping nutch crawl output to a location on hdfs
   Host is defined in /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml for property fs.defaultFS, (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27956973/java-io-ioexception-incomplete-hdfs-uri-no-host)
   host is hdfs://node2/ in this case.
   So:

    hdfs dfs -rmdir /user/vagrant/dump
    XXX ./bin/nutch readdb -dump user/vagrant/dump -text ### won't work
    XXX ./bin/nutch readdb -dump hdfs:///user/vagrant/dump -text ### won't work
    ./bin/nutch readdb -dump hdfs://node2/user/vagrant/dump -text


USING THE SCRIPT TO ATTEMPT TO CRAWL A SITE
* Choosing to repeat the cycle 10 times because, as per http://nutch.sourceforge.net/docs/en/tutorial.html

"Typically one starts testing one's configuration by crawling at low depths, and watching the output to check that desired pages are found. Once one is more confident of the configuration, then an appropriate depth for a full crawl is around 10." 

* Use the ./bin/crawl script, provide the seed urls dir, the crawlId and number of times to repeat = 10 
vagrant@node2:~/apache-nutch-2.3.1/runtime/local$ ./bin/crawl urls davidbHomePage 10


* View the downloaded crawls.
This time need to provide crawlId to readdb, in order to get a dump of its text contents:
   hdfs dfs -rm -r hdfs://node2/user/vagrant/dump2
   ./bin/nutch readdb -dump hdfs://node2/user/vagrant/dump2 -text -crawlId davidbHomePage

* View the contents:
hdfs dfs -cat hdfs://node2/user/vagrant/dump2/part-r-*


* FIND OUT NUMBER OF URLS DOWNLOADED FOR THE SITE:

    Testing URLFilters: testing a URL to see if it's accepted
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Use the command

(mentioned at https://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Correct-syntax-for-regex-urlfilter-txt-trying-to-exclude-single-path-results-td3600376.html)

Use as follows:

    cd apache-nutch-2.3.1/runtime/local

    ./bin/nutch org.apache.nutch.net.URLFilterChecker -allCombined 

Then paste the URL you want to test, press Enter.
    A + in front of response means accepted
    A - in front of response means rejected.
Can continue pasting URLs to test against filters until you send Ctrl-D to terminate input.

INSTALLING THE MONGODB SERVER AND MONGO CLIENT ON LINUX
Need to have sudo and root powers.

https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/
http://www.programmersought.com/article/6500308940/

   52  sudo apt-get install mongodb-clients
   53  mongo 'mongodb://mongodb.cms.waikato.ac.nz:27017' -u anupama -p

Failed with
    Error: HostAndPort: host is empty at src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:148
    exception: connect failed

This is due to a version incompatibility between Client and mongodb Server.
The solution is to follow instructions at http://www.programmersought.com/article/6500308940/
and then https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/
as below:

   54  sudo apt-get purge mongodb-clients
   55  sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 9DA31620334BD75D9DCB49F368818C72E52529D4
   56  echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/4.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-4.0.list
   57  sudo apt-get update
   58  sudo apt-get install mongodb-clients
   59  mongo 'mongodb://mongodb.cms.waikato.ac.nz:27017' -u anupama -p
(still doesn't work)
   60  sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
The above ensures an up to date mongo client but installs the mongodb server too. Maybe this is the only step that is needed to install up-to-date mongo client and mongodb server?
   72  sudo service mongod status

  103  sudo service mongod start
"mongod" stands for mongo-daemon. This runs the mongo db server listening for client connections
  104  sudo service mongod status
   88  sudo service mongod stop


RUNNING AND USING THE MONGO CLIENT SHELL:
Among the many things you can do with the Mongo client shell, one can use it to find the mongo client version (which is the version of the shell) and the mongo db version.

To run the mongo client shell WITHOUT loading a db:


    wharariki:[880]/Scratch/ak19/gs3-extensions/maori-lang-detection>mongo --shell -nodb
    MongoDB shell version: 2.6.10 <<<<<<<<<-------------------<<<< MONGO CLIENT VERSION

        DBQuery.shellBatchSize = x   set default number of items to display on shell
        exit                         quit the mongo shell

    > help connect

    Normally one specifies the server on the mongo shell command line.  Run mongo --help to see those options.
    Additional connections may be opened:

        var x = new Mongo('host[:port]');
        var mydb = x.getDB('mydb');
      or
        var mydb = connect('host[:port]/mydb');

    Note: the REPL prompt only auto-reports getLastError() for the shell command line connection.

    Getting help on connect options: 

    > var x = new Mongo('mongodb.cms.waikato.ac.nz:27017');
    > var mydb = x.getDB('anupama');

    > mydb.connect.help()

        db.connect.convertToCapped(maxBytes) - calls {convertToCapped:'connect', size:maxBytes}} command
        db.connect.dataSize()
        db.connect.distinct( key ) - e.g. db.connect.distinct( 'x' )

        db.connect.dropIndex(index) - e.g. db.connect.dropIndex( "indexName" ) or db.connect.dropIndex( { "indexKey" : 1 } )
        db.connect.dropIndexes()
        db.connect.ensureIndex(keypattern[,options]) - options is an object with these possible fields: name, unique, dropDups
        db.connect.reIndex()
        db.connect.find([query],[fields]) - query is an optional query filter. fields is optional set of fields to return.
                                                  e.g. db.connect.find( {x:77} , {name:1, x:1} )
        db.connect.find(...).count()
        db.connect.find(...).limit(n)
        db.connect.find(...).skip(n)
        db.connect.find(...).sort(...)
        db.connect.findOne([query])
        db.connect.findAndModify( { update : ... , remove : bool [, query: {}, sort: {}, 'new': false] } )
        db.connect.getDB() get DB object associated with collection
        db.connect.getPlanCache() get query plan cache associated with collection
        db.connect.getIndexes()
        db.connect.group( { key : ..., initial: ..., reduce : ...[, cond: ...] } )
        db.connect.insert(obj)
        db.connect.mapReduce( mapFunction , reduceFunction , <optional params> )
        db.connect.aggregate( [pipeline], <optional params> ) - performs an aggregation on a collection; returns a cursor
        db.connect.remove(query)
        db.connect.renameCollection( newName , <dropTarget> ) renames the collection.
        db.connect.runCommand( name , <options> ) runs a db command with the given name where the first param is the collection name
        db.connect.save(obj)
        db.connect.stats()
        db.connect.storageSize() - includes free space allocated to this collection
        db.connect.totalIndexSize() - size in bytes of all the indexes
        db.connect.totalSize() - storage allocated for all data and indexes
        db.connect.update(query, object[, upsert_bool, multi_bool]) - instead of two flags, you can pass an object with fields: upsert, multi
        db.connect.validate( <full> ) - SLOW
        db.connect.getShardVersion() - only for use with sharding
        db.connect.getShardDistribution() - prints statistics about data distribution in the cluster
        db.connect.getSplitKeysForChunks( <maxChunkSize> ) - calculates split points over all chunks and returns splitter function
        db.connect.getWriteConcern() - returns the write concern used for any operations on this collection, inherited from server/db if set
        db.connect.setWriteConcern( <write concern doc> ) - sets the write concern for writes to the collection
        db.connect.unsetWriteConcern( <write concern doc> ) - unsets the write concern for writes to the collection

    4.0.13 <<<<<<<<<-------------------<<<< MONGODB SERVER VERSION

(Check Mongo server version: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38160412/how-to-find-the-exact-version-of-installed-mongodb)

Finally we now know the mongodb server version: 4.0.13
This version didn't work with our mongo client (shell) version of 2.6.10. And that's we had to upgrade the client.
