- Use the new "GenericUtils.clearBlockingData()" method from the "PublicationsRetriever" library.
- Remove the deprecated "getMultipleFullTexts"-endpoint, along with the Zip-related code.
- Delete the assignments-batch full-texts after the whole procedure (for each assignments-batch) is finished, either successfully or not.
- Do not check for remaining files, when the Worker shuts down, since, in case of problematic handling the files are deleted anyway.
The full-texts are not needed to be kept, in case of an error, since the Controller will reassign the non-downloaded id-url records to some worker (maybe different) and these files will be downloaded again and handled there.
Also, change the "assignmentsNumsHandled" to hold data only for assignments which are handled all the way, including the upload of the full-texts from the Controller and also the insertion of the WorkerReport to the database.
- Clear the "ConnSupportUtils.domainsWithConnectionData" data-structure, after each batch.
- Move the code for handling the "CookieStore" inside the "PublicationsRetrieverPlugin", as it is more related to that.
- Avoid running the "deleteHandledAssignmentsFullTexts()" scheduled task on application's start.
- Optimize assignment of "requestUrl".
- Add clarity in the scheduled tasks, by using "fixedDelay" instead of "fixedRate", to signify that the time specified is counted right from the time the last task is finished (even though without enabling the "Async" there is no "danger" of running them in parallel).
- Code cleanup.
- Fix a bug, where, in case it took too long to get the assignments from the Controller (possible when there are too many workers requesting at the same time or if the database is responding slowly), the Worker's scheduler would request for new assignments, in the meantime.
- Fix a bug, where, if the "maxAssignmentsBatchesToHandleBeforeRestart" was set, the Worker's scheduler could request another batch, right before the Worker was about to shut down.
- Fix a bug, where the condition of when to clear the over-sized data-structures was based on the "assignmentRequestCounter" send by the Controller (which is increased on each request by any worker and not for each individual one), and not on the "numHandledAssignmentsBatches" kept by each individual worker. This would result in much earlier cleanup, relative to the number of the Workers.
- Avoid double-checking for handledAssignments -in order to delete their full-texts- when the app is about to shut down, in case the "maxAssignmentsBatchesToHandleBeforeRestart" is set above Zero.
- When the user sets the "maxAssignmentsBatchesToHandleBeforeRestart" above zero, shutdown immediately after the last assignments-batch. Do not wait for the next scheduled check.
- Allow the user to set the "maxAssignmentsBatchesToHandleBeforeRestart" in the "installAndRun.sh" script.
- Increase the "fixedRate" for the "ScheduledTasks.deleteHandledAssignmentsFullTexts()" method to 12 hours.
- Update README.md
- Avoid converting the zero fileSize to < null >. Now, the default value is < null >, so the zero-value will indicate a zero-byte file.
- Update dependencies.
- Code cleanup.
- Use the "InputStreamResource" also in "get(single)FullText"-endpoint, in order to avoid loading a big full-text file in memory.
- Decrease the system-reserved memory by 128 MB.
- Fix path-variable regexes for "getFullText"-endpoint.
- Optimize imports.
- Code cleanup.
- Set increased lower and upper limits for the Java Heap Size.
- Update the "ServerBaseURL" to the Public IP Address of the machine which is running the app.
- Improve two log-messages.
- Improve the "getMultipleFullTexts"-endpoint. Check if the "fileNamesWithExtensions"-list is empty. Check if the baseDir for the fullTexts of a given assignments-counter is missing.
- Optimize the "PublicationsRetrieverPlugin.processAssignments()" method.
- Set a max-size limit to the amount of space the logs can use. Over that size, the older logs will be deleted.
- Show the heap size, in the beginning.
- Update Gradle.
- Code cleanup.
