In order to install Logius crawler you'll need
- Java 7 and Java 8, which can be downloaded from Oracle, or for Linux users OpenJDK.
- Heritrix 3 need to be installed, web page with details
- Verapdf need to be installed, you can download the latest version here. Note that you should preferably use the latest version of verapdf.
You need to dowload and build modules LogiusWebApp and HeritrixExtention with maven. You should run the following command from the directory that contains both downloaded modules
mvn clean install
After that you will get two jar files "your_directory/LogiusWebApp/target/LogiusWebApp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" and "your_directory/HeritrixExtention/target/HeritrixExtention.jar". The file "your_directory/HeritrixExtention/target/HeritrixExtention.jar" should be placed in "lib/" directory in your Heritrix installation directory.
You need to start heritrix application. Firtly you need to ensure that java 7 will be used to run heritrix, and secondly you need to run heritrix with necessary arguments:
export JAVA_HOME=your_path_to_java7
heritrix_directory/bin/heritrix -a your_login:your_password -p 8443
Here your_login and your_password are the credentials you should pass to LogiusWebApp afterwards.
You need to create the directory with configuration files, suppose you name it data/. You need to move files "sample_configuration.cxml" and "sample_report.ods" from "LogiusWebApp/src/main/resources/" to your "data" directory. You need to configure the file "LogiusWebApp/src/main/resources/config.yml" accordingly.
You may change parameters server:applicationConnectors:port: and server:adminConnectors:port:. You need to configure emailServer: as a email server which will send notifications about finished jobs (it should be gmail server and port: 587 should remain intact).
The following settings must be provided: resourcePath(path to your "data/" directory), heritrixLogin and heritrixPassword (login and password you used to start heritrix) and verapdfPath(path to verapdf shell script, i.e. "/home/user/verapdf/verapdf").
It is necessary to set up logging by providing the path to log file under logging.loggers.CustomLogger.appenders.currentLogFilename property. You should modify logging.loggers.CustomLogger.appenders.archivedLogFilenamePattern property accordingly.
Logius application requires connection to MySQL database to store information about crwal jobs, validation jobs and processed documents. You are supposed to provide connecting parameters (connection string, username, password) in configuration file. Currently database schema consists of the following 6 tables (described using SQL statements that create tables):
CREATE TABLE `crawl_jobs` (
`id` varchar(36) DEFAULT NULL,
`crawl_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`job_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`start_time` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
`finish_time` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
`is_finished` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0',
`status` varchar(10) DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `validation_jobs` (
`filepath` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`job_directory` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`file_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`time_last_modified` datetime DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `batch_crawl_jobs` (
`id` varchar(36) DEFAULT NULL,
`is_finished` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0',
`report_email` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`crawl_since` datetime DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `crawl_jobs_in_batch` (
`batch_job_id` varchar(36) DEFAULT NULL,
`crawl_job_id` varchar(36) DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `document_properties` (
`name` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`value` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`document_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `documents` (
`crawl_job_id` varchar(36) DEFAULT NULL,
`document_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`last_modified` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
`document_type` varchar(127) DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `pdf_properties` (
`name` varchar(127) DEFAULT NULL,
`xpath` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`human_readable_name` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `validation_errors` (
`specification` varchar(32) DEFAULT NULL,
`clause` varchar(16) DEFAULT NULL,
`test_number` varchar(4) DEFAULT NULL,
`description` varchar(512) DEFAULT NULL,
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
CREATE TABLE `validation_errors_in_document` (
`document_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`error_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE `validation_jobs` (
`filepath` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`job_directory` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`file_url` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`time_last_modified` datetime DEFAULT NULL
);First you need to ensure that you are running Logius application with java 8 and then you can start the application using commands:
export JAVA_HOME=your_path_to_java8
java -jar "your_directory/LogiusWebApp/target/LogiusWebApp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar -server "path_to_your_config_file/config.yml"
