380346 - MDC OpenSearch plugin should use Nutch

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

Currently the MDC opensearch plugin uses the Special:Search wiki search instead of Nutch.  This needs to be changed to use Nutch instead.

Bumping to blocker status.

Comment 2

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

Nutch does not seem to support JSON suggestions. Therefore we seem to have two choices:
- Drop suggestion support or
- keep fetching the suggestions from Wiki search rather than Nutch.

Which one do you prefer?

Comment 3

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

Can we pull suggestions from the wiki while doing the actual search using Nutch?  It's not ideal but it's probably better than dropping suggestions entirely.

Comment 4

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

Yes, that would work. We should do it like this, then. Due to the problems with developer-test.m.o, the search plugin is unavailable there to test also, though.

This patch changes the opensearch description for MDC, so that it uses Nutch. Please review. (Once I have write access to SVN, I'll even commit it, I promise))

Looks good to me.

Comment 8

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

Excellent. This is committed to SVN r8670, marking "push-needed" and FIXED.

Comment 9

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

Un-marking push-needed, as MediaWiki has been replaced by Dekiwiki.
