YaCy config settings

You can fine-tune various settings of YaCy in the config file DATA/SETTINGS/yacy.conf

You can also change all the settings in in administration interface: Administration > System Administration > Advanced Properties.

Some changes take effect only after restart.

All the config file options and default values are listed in file defaults/yacy.init.

Options are described on this page as:

setting.name = default_value

System

port = 8090 port number where the server should bind to

port.ssl = 8443 optional ssl port (https port) the server should bind to

port.shutdown = -1 port to listen for a shutdown signal ( -1 = disable use of a shutdown port, 8005 = recommended default )

upnp.enabled = true use UPnP [true/false]

upnp.remoteHost = remote host on UPnP device (for more than one connection)

bindPort = sometimes you may want yacy to bind to another port, than the one reachable from outside. then set bindPort to the port yacy should bind on, and port to the port, visible from outside

to run yacy on port 8090, reachable from port 80, set bindPort=8090, port=80 and use:

`iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s 192.168.24.0/16 --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.24.1:8090`

(of course you need to customize the ips)

Paths settings

indexPrimaryPath=DATA/INDEX The path to the public reverse word index for text files (web pages).

The primary path is relative to the data root, the secondary path is an absolute path. when the secondary path should be equal to the primary, it must be declared empty.

indexArchivePath=DATA/ARCHIVE the path to index archive dumps

listsPath=DATA/LISTS the path to the LISTS files. Most lists are used to filter web content

workPath=DATA/WORK path to additional databases, like messages, blog data and bookmarks

skinPath=DATA/SKINS the path to the SKINS files.

proxyYellowList=yacy.yellow the yellow-list; URL's elements (the core of an URL; like 'yahoo' in 'de.yahoo.com') appearing in this list will not get a manipulated user agent string

Server

Servlets

property that collects the names of all servlets that had been used so far that is used to track if the user has already done some configuration steps if the used missed configuration steps that should be done, then a help system is possible which leads the used based on the list of servlets that had been used the list distinguishes called and submitted servlets

server.servlets.called =

server.servlets.submitted =

Server tracking

server.maxTrackingTime = 3600000 maximum time a track entry is hold in the internal cache value is in milliseconds, default is one hour

server.maxTrackingCount = 1000 maximum number of tracks per host

server.maxTrackingHostCount = 100 maximum number of hosts that are tracked

server.response.compress.gzip = true When set to true, enable gzip compression of HTTP responses when the user-agent (browser, another YaCy peer or any kind of client) accept gzip encoding (by including gzip in a 'Accept-Encoding' HTTP request header). This adds some processing overhead, but reduces the amount of bytes sent over network.

referrer.meta.policy=origin-when-cross-origin Global HTTP Referrer policy delivered by meta tag (see https://www.w3.org/TR/referrer-policy/ for available policies). Can be left empty : the browser should then fallback to the default "no-referrer-when-downgrade" policy. Be careful, some policies will also affect YaCy internal links : "no-referrer", "same-origin", "origin" and "strict-origin". This can be useful for example when proxyURL.useforresults is set to true, to control the referrer information initially sent by YaCy proxy when visiting search results.

Maximum file sizes

Since some users experience problems with too large files, the file size of database files can be limited. Larger files can be used to get a better IO performance and to use less RAM; however, if the size must be limited because of limitations of the file system, the maximum size can be set here

filesize.max.win = 2147483647

filesize.max.other = 8589934591

Network

IP and port

staticIP= staticIP if you have a static IP, you can use this setting

publicPort= if you use a different port to access YaCy than the one it listens on, you can use this setting

Network Definition

There can be separate YaCy networks, and managed sub-groups of the general network.

The essentials of the network definition are attached in separate property files.

The property here can also be a url where the definition can be loaded.

In case of privately managed networks, this configuration must be changed BEFORE it is released to the members of the separated network peers.

network.unit.definition = defaults/yacy.network.freeworld.unit

network.unit.definition = defaults/yacy.network.webportal.unit

network.unit.definition = defaults/yacy.network.intranet.unit

network.unit.domain.nocheck = false Distinguish intranet/internet IPs. If this setting is set to true, then only URL-Hashes with 'intranet'-Flag is created, even if the url is in the internet. This can be done to enhance the crawling speed dramatically since a DNS-lookup to check if a host is in the internet oder an intranet can be omited. This option is only valid if the network.unit.domain property is set to 'any'.

network.unit.agent = A client may have its own agent name. This name can be set by the user and is set to a random value if not overwritten by the user. As an alternative, the name can be set with this property. This option is only used if the value is non-empty.

network.unit.protocol.https.preferred = false Prefer https for in-protocol operations when available on remote peers.

A distinct general setting is available to control whether https sould be used for remote search queries : remotesearch.https.preferred

Clusters within a network

Every network can have an unlimited number of clusters. Clusters may be also completely sealed and have no connection to other peers. When a cluster does not use the p2p protocol and the bootstraping mechanism to contact other peers, we call them Robinson peers. They can appear in different 'visibilities':

All public robinson peers should use a peer tag string to be searcheable if in the search request these tags appear

cluster.mode=publicpeer

cluster.peers.yacydomain=localpeer.yacy

cluster.peers.ipport=localhost:8090

bootstrapLoadTimeout = 20000 this is the time-out for loading of the seedlist files during bootstraping. If the time-out is too short, there is the danger that the peer stays in virgin mode.

clientTimeout = 10000 time-out of client control socket in milliseconds since this applies only to the client-proxy connection, it can be rather short

TLS/SSL support

For a German manual see http://yacy-websuche.de/wiki/index.php/De:Interface%C3%9CberHTTPS

English speaking user read below:

With this you can access your peer using https://localhost:8443

There are two possibilities to specify which certificate should be used by YaCy.

1) Create a new certificate:

1.1) For testing purposes, you can create a keystore with a self-signed certificate, using the following command:

   `C:\> keytool -keystore mySrvKeystore -genkey -keyalg RSA -alias mycert`

1.2) Then configure the keyStoreXXXX properties accordingly, e.g.

keyStore = c:/yacy/DATA/SETTINGS/mySrvKeystore

keyStorePassword = mypwd

2) Import an existing certificate:

Alternatively you can import an existing certificate in pkcs12 format into the Java keystore.

This can be done by setting the pkcs12XXX and keyStoreXXXX properties accordingly, e.g.

pkcs12ImportFile = c:/temp/keystore.pkcs12

pkcs12ImportPwd = test

keyStore = DATA/SETTINGS/keystore.jks

keyStorePassword = mypwd

If the property keyStore is not specified, then a new keystore file DATA/SETTINGS/myPeerKeystore will be created.

keyStore=defaults/freeworldKeystore Path to the Java KeyStore (JKS) holding the certificate to use when TLS/SSL is enabled on the server (server.https=true)

keyStorePassword=freeworld Password to access the Java KeyStore (JKS)

pkcs12ImportFile = Path to a PKCS *12 keystore holding a certificate to import into the Java KeyStore This property is automatically reset to empty once the import has been successfully completed

pkcs12ImportPwd = Password to access a PKCS *12 keystore holding a certificate to import This property is automatically reset to empty once the import has been successfully completed

The Java KeyStore is only used, if server.https is set to true.

If server.https=true, then the YaCy web interface is available at https://localhost:/ and at http://localhost:/ server.https=false

Update process

The update server location is given in the network.unit.definition, but the settings for update processing and cycles are individual.

update.process = manual the update process can be either:

update.cycle = 168 the cycle value applies only if the process is automatic or guided. The value means hours. There is currently a fixed minimum number of hours of 24 hours for updates

update.blacklist = a version number blacklist can restrict automatic or guided updates to a specific range of version numbers. The restriction is done with a blacklist (standard regexpr) It is recommended to set this list to low developer version numbers

update.concept = any a update can also restricted with a concept property, which can decide if an update is only valid if it either is a main release or any release including new development releases. Valid keywords are main and any.

the following values are set automatically:

update.time.lookup = 0 the lookup time when the last time a lookup to the network update server(s) where done

update.time.download = 0 the download time when the last time a release was downloaded

update.time.deploy = 0 the deploy time when the last update was done; milliseconds since epoch

update.deleteOld = 30 delete old downloaded files after this amount of days to free disk space. the latest release is always kept.

update.onlySignedFiles = 1 only install sign files

releases = DATA/RELEASE storage place for new releases

Restart-option

a peer can be re-started periodically

restart.process can be either off (no automatic restart) or time (time- rule-based, see below)

restart.process = off

restart.cycle = 20 the number of hours that must pass before a restart is done

restart.hour = 03 the restart.hour is a pattern that must match with the hour string (two-digit, 24h) when the restart should be performed

restart.time = 0 this value is set automatically

HTTP options

httpdMaxBusySessions = 200 maximal number of httpd sessions. a client may open several connections at once, and the httpdMaxBusySessions value sets a limit on the number of concurrent connections

http.outgoing.pool.general.maxTotal = 200 maximum number of simultaneously open outgoing HTTP connections in the general pool (net.yacy.cora.protocol.http.HTTPClient)

http.outgoing.pool.remoteSolr.maxTotal = 100 maximum number of simultaneously open outgoing HTTP connections in the remote Solr pool (net.yacy.cora.federate.solr.instance.RemoteInstance)

htRootPath = htroot default root path for the file server. may be overridden by the htdocs parameter. users shall be encouraged to use the htdocs path for individual content, not this path defined here.

htDefaultPath=htroot. the htroot path. root path for the httpd file server.

htDocsPath = DATA/HTDOCS individual htroot folder. every user may publicize her/his own web pages. these pages shall be placed in the path defined here. the htdocs path shares its content with the htroot path.

defaultFiles = index.html,index.htm,default.html,search.html,console.html,control.html,welcome.html,wiki.html,forum.html,blog.html,email.html,content.html,monitor.html,share.html,dir.html,readme.txt the default files (typically index.html), if no file name is given. The complete path to this file is created by combination with the rootPath. You can set a list of defaults, separated by comma, the first one is preferred.

TLS Server Name Indication (SNI) extension support for outgoing HTTP connections

Must be enabled to load some https URLs (for websites deployed with different certificats and host names on the same shared IP address), otherwise loading fails with errors such as "Received fatal alert: handshake_failure".

It can be necessary to disable it to load some https URLs served by old and misconfigured web servers, otherwise loading fails with the exception javax.net.ssl.SSLProtocolException: "handshake alert: unrecognized_name".

In 2019, this last error should occur less frequently as in the early days of the extension implementation as its standard definition has evolved from RFC 4366 to RFC 6066 which revised how server implementations should handle the unrecognized_name(112) alert.

Can also be configured with the JVM option jsse.enableSNIExtension, but in that case a server restart is required when you want to modify the setting and it is not customizable per http client (general or for remote Solr)

http.outgoing.general.tls.sniExtension.enabled = true Set to true to enable TLS Server Name Indication (SNI) extension on outgoing HTTP connections in the general http client (net.yacy.cora.protocol.http.HTTPClient)

http.outgoing.remoteSolr.tls.sniExtension.enabled = true Set to true to enable TLS Server Name Indication (SNI) extension on outgoing HTTP connections in the remote Solr http client (net.yacy.cora.federate.solr.instance.RemoteInstance)

virtual host for httpdFileServlet access

for example http:/// shall access the file servlet and return the defaultFile at rootPath

either way, http:/// denotes the same as http://localhost:/ for the preconfigured value 'localpeer', the URL is: http://localpeer/

fileHost = localpeer

mimeTable = defaults/httpd.mime specify the path to the MIME matching file table

sessionidNamesFile = defaults/sessionid.names specify the path to the sessionid name file

Locale options

YaCy supports localization.

Web pages for special languages are located in the htLocalePath

The htLocaleLang defines a list of language options as <dir>/<named-language>.

The <dir> must exist as sub-path to htLocalePath.

The htLocaleSelection selects from the given locales, value=one-of-<dir>.

locale.source=locales

locale.translated_html=DATA/LOCALE/htroot

locale.language=default

Proxy cache

proxyCache = DATA/HTCACHE a path to the file cache, used for the internal proxy and as crawl buffer This will be used if the server is addressed as a proxy

proxyCacheSize = 4096 the maximum disc cache size for files in Cache in megabytes. default: 4 Gigabyte.

proxyCache.compressionLevel = 9 The compression level for cached content. Supported values ranging from 0 - no compression (lower CPU, higher disk usage), to 9 - best compression (higher CPU, lower disk use).

proxyCache.sync.lockTimeout = 2000 Timeout value (in milliseconds) for acquiring a synchronization lock on getContent/store Cache operations. When timeout occurs, loader should fall back to regular remote resource loading.

proxyAlwaysFresh = false you can use the proxy with fresh/stale rules or in a always-fresh mode

Surrogates

surrogates.in = DATA/SURROGATES/in a path to the surrogate input directory

surrogates.out = DATA/SURROGATES/out a path to the surrogate output directory

Data enhancements

dictionaries = DATA/DICTIONARIES a path to the dictionaries directory. This directory also contains subdirectories for input sources, the did-you-mean function and other

vocabularies.matchLinkedData.names = Set of comma separated vocabulary names whose terms should only be matched from linked data types annotations in documents (with microdata, RDFa, microformats...) instead of cleartext words

classification = DATA/CLASSIFICATION a path to the classification directory. Each subdirectory is the name of a context (which becomes a navigator) with '.txt' files containing texts to teach a bayesian filter. One of the files must be named 'negative.txt'. The text files can be created with the Export functionality using the option "Only Text".

Parser settings

the following mime-types are a blacklist for indexing:

parser.mime.deny= parser.mime.deny: specifies mime-types that shall not be indexed

parser.extensions.deny=iso,apk,dmg

parser.enableAudioTags=false The audioTagParser is disabled by default as it needs to create a temporary file each time an audio resource is parsed. Audio file extensions and media types can be enabled in the ConfigParser_p.html page if this is not a problem with your install.

experimental single-page parser for pdf files: split one pdf into individual pages; the key is the property name in the post arguments that gets a page number assigned, page numbers start with 1.

parser.pdf.individualpages=false

parser.pdf.individualpages.key=page

Promotion Strings

These strings appear in the Web Mask of the YACY search client.

Set these Strings to cusomize your peer and give any message to other peer users:

promoteSearchPageGreeting = Web Search by the People, for the People

promoteSearchPageGreeting.useNetworkName = false if set to true, the network name is used as greeting

The following attributes can be used to define a custom image, alternative text and home page on the search page:

promoteSearchPageGreeting.homepage = https://yacy.net

promoteSearchPageGreeting.imageAlt = YaCy project web site

promoteSearchPageGreeting.largeImage = env/grafics/YaCyLogo_120ppi.png

promoteSearchPageGreeting.smallImage = env/grafics/YaCyLogo_60ppi.png

Black-lists

the black-list; URLs appearing in this list will not be loaded; instead always a 404 is returned

all these files will be placed in the listsPath

BlackLists.Shared=url.default.black

BlackLists.DefaultList=url.default.black

these are not needed as default. they just keep the values from beeing deleted ...:

proxy.BlackLists=url.default.black

crawler.BlackLists=url.default.black

dht.BlackLists=url.default.black

search.BlackLists=url.default.black

surftips.BlackLists=url.default.black

news.BlackLists=url.default.black

plasmaBlueList=yacy.blue the blue-list; no search result is locally presented that has any word of the bluelist in the search words, the URL or the URL's description

Proxy settings

this proxy may in turn again access another proxy

if you wish to do that, specify it here

if you want to switch on the proxy use, set remoteProxyUse=true

remoteProxyNoProxy is a no-proxy pattern list for the remote proxy

remoteProxyUse=false

remoteProxyUse4SSL=true

remoteProxyHost=192.168.2.2

remoteProxyPort=4239

remoteProxyUser=

remoteProxyPwd=

remoteProxyNoProxy=10\..*,127\..*,172\.(1[6-9]|2[0-9]|3[0-1])\..*,169\.254\..*,192\.168\..*,localhost,0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1

proxyBlueList=yacy.blue the proxy may filter the content of transferred web pages. The bluelist removes specific keywords from web pages.

Security settings

we provide proxy and server security through a 2-stage security gate:

By default, these settings are weak to simplify set-up and testing every user/adiministrator shall be encouraged to change these settings.

your can change them also online during run-time on http://localhost:8090/.

proxyClient=localhost,127\.0\.0\.1,192\.168\..*,10\..*,0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1.* client-ip's that may connect the proxy for proxy service. if several ip's are allowed then they must be separated by a ','. regular expressions may be used.

YaCyHop=true allow public usage of proxy for yacy-protocol. this enables usage of the internal http proxy for everyone, if the file path starts with /yacy/. This is used to enable anonymization of yacy protocol requests. Instead of asking a remote peer directly, a peer in between is asked to prevent that the asked peer knows which peer asks.

serverClient=* serverClient: comma separated client-ip's that may connect to the web server, thus are allowed to use the search service. if you set this to another value, search requests from others are blocked, but you will also be blocked from using others search services.

use_proxyAccounts=true set to true to restrict proxy-access to some identified users. use User_p.html to create some Users.

Users and passwords

adminAccountBase64MD5: a encoded user:password - pair

For the administration of settings through the web interface. Should be set to a secret. but you are encouraged to set it to another value on the page http://localhost:8090/ConfigAccounts_p.html

The hash is calculated with net.yacy.cora.order.Digest, i.e.

`java -classpath classes net.yacy.cora.order.Digest -strfhex "admin:<realm>:<pw>"`

(adminAccountBase64=MD5:{admin:realm:mysecretpassword})

The default password for the "admin" account is set to "yacy":

adminAccountUserName=admin

adminAccountBase64MD5=MD5:8cffbc0d66567a0987a4aba1ec46d63c

Special access handling for users from localhost:

adminAccountForLocalhost=true access from localhost may be granted with administration authority if this flag is set. It is set to true by default to make usage of YaCy easy if you use YaCy on a headless server, you should set this to false or configure this on http://localhost:8090/ConfigAccounts_p.html during the first 10 minutes of operation of YaCy; if the admin account password is still empty after 10 minutes a random password is generated an access is then ONLY from localhost, which will cause inaccessibility for installations on headless servers.

adminAccountAllPages=false adminAccountAllPages: if set to false, then all pages without the extension "_p" are accessible without authorization. Some servlets may individually decide to use or request administration rights. If adminAccountAllPages is set to true, then administration rights are needed to access all pages without any exception. Setting adminAccountAllPages to true therefore closes the YaCy web pages for everyone.

adminRealm=The YaCy access is limited to administrators. If you don't know the password, you can change it using <yacy-home>/bin/passwd.sh <new-password> adminRealm: a internal name (like a group name) for the login setting of the admin frontend.

ATTENTION: changing this name will invalidate all currently password hashes - With DIGEST authentication mode is this realm name of generated password hashes (RFC 2617 standard and recommendation). If you want to share password configuration with additional machines they have to belong to the same realm - authentication defaults to BASIC - and can be configured in defaults/web.xml , tag

Seeds and peers settings

If you are running a principal peer, you must update the following variables.

The upload method that should be used to upload the seed-list file to a public accessible webserver where it can be loaded by other peers.

You can set the seedUploadMethod-Property to:

seedUploadMethod=none

This is the most common method to upload the seed-list.

This is an ftp account with all relevant information.

The update is only made if there had been changes in between:

seedFTPServer=

seedFTPAccount=

seedFTPPassword=

seedFTPPath=

seedFilePath= alternatively to an FTP account, a peer can also become a principal peer if the seed-list can be generated as a file and that file is also accessible from the internet. In this case, omit any ftp settings and set this path here. if this path stays empty, an ftp account is considered. however, you must always set a seedURL because it is used to check if the file is actually accessible from the internet.

Settings needed to upload the seed-list file via scp:

seedScpServer=

seedScpServerPort=

seedScpAccount=

seedScpPassword=

seedScpPath=

Please note that this upload method can only be used if you have installed this optional upload method.

scan.peerCycle=2 every peer periodically scans for other peers. you can set the time of the period here (minutes).

scan.enabled=false You might switch it on in kubernetes clusters:

OS integration

each time YaCy starts up, it can trigger the local browser to show the status page. This is active by default, to make it easier for first-time users to understand what this application does. You can disable browser pop-up here or set a different start page, like the search page:

browserPopUpTrigger=true

browserPopUpPage=index.html

indexForward = a forward page can be given for the index.html page. when a user accesses the index.html page, he/she is forwarded to the page as given by indexForward. This is by default not defined which means 'no forward'

Defines if the YaCy icon appears in the system tray on supported platforms:

tray.icon.enabled=true

tray.icon.force=false

tray.icon.label=YaCy

tray.menu.enabled=true

Index sharing attributes

by default, sharing is on.

If you want to use YaCy only for local indexing (robinson mode), you may switch this off.

allowDistributeIndex=true

allowDistributeIndexWhileCrawling=false

allowDistributeIndexWhileIndexing=true

allowReceiveIndex=true

allowReceiveIndex.search=true

indexReceiveBlockBlacklist=true

the frequency is the number of links per minute, that the peer allows every other peer to send to this peer:

defaultWordReceiveFrequency=100

defaultLinkReceiveFrequency=30

The default may be overridden for each peer individually, these settings are only available through the online interface.

Prefetch parameters

the prefetch depth assigns a specific depth to the prefetch mechanism prefetch of 0 means no prefetch; a prefetch of 1 means to prefetch all embedded URLs, but since embedded image links are loaded by the browser this means that only embedded anchors are prefetched additionally a prefetch of 2 would result in loading of all images and anchor pages of all embedded anchors. Be careful with this value, since even a prefetch of 2 would result in hundreds of prefetched URLs for each single proxy fill.

proxyPrefetchDepth=0

proxyStoreHTCache=true

proxyIndexingRemote=false

proxyIndexingLocalText=true

proxyIndexingLocalMedia=true

proxyYacyOnly=false proxy usage only for .yacy-Domains for autoconfig

proxyURL=false enable proxy via url (/proxy.html?url=http://yacy.net)

proxyURL.access=127.0.0.1,0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1

proxyURL.rewriteURLs=domainlist which urls to rewrite to /proxy.html?url=x (values: all, domainlist)

proxyURL.useforresults=false

Crawling

From the 'IndexCreate' menu point you can also define a crawling start point.

The crawling works the same way as the prefetch, but it is possible to assign a different crawling depth.

Be careful with this number. Consider a branching factor of average 20; A prefetch-depth of 8 would index 25.600.000.000 pages, maybe the whole WWW.

crawlingDepth=3

crawlingDirectDocByURL=true

crawlingIfOlder=-1

crawlingDomFilterDepth=-1

crawlingDomMaxPages=-1

indexText=true

indexMedia=true

Filter for crawling; may be used to restrict a crawl to a specific domain:

crawlingFilter=.* URLs are only indexed and further crawled if they match this filter

crawlingQ=true

followFrames=true

obeyHtmlRobotsNoindex=true

obeyHtmlRobotsNofollow=false

storeHTCache=true

storeTXCache=true

Remote Crawl

peers may initiate remote crawling tasks.

every peer may allow or disallow to be used as crawling-peer; you can also set a maximum crawl depth that can be requested or accepted order=parameters for requester; response=parameters for responder

these values apply only for senior-senior - communication

The delay value is number of seconds bewteen two separate orders

crawlOrder: default value for remote crawl starts

crawlResponse: set to true if a peer should retrieve remote crawl urls from other peers

crawlOrder=true

crawlOrderDepth=0

crawlResponse=false

crawlResponseDepth=0

Custom user agents

Custom user agents for 'allip' networks:

This user agent is only available if the network is set to 'allip' (which is a non-limited domain 'network' without p2p options). Changing this will NOT change the default YaCy user agent, it will only provide an agent which is available at crawl start within 'allip'. The userAgent.name is the identifier for the robots.txt file which YaCy always obeys for the given name or a wildcard for robot types.

If any part of this custom user agent name or string includes the phrase 'yacy', it will be IGNORED to prevent fraud, DoS or bad behavior in the name of YaCy.

To use this user agent option, you must define completely different names and strings and remove the given example here, which will be ignored by default.

crawler.userAgent.name = yacybot

crawler.userAgent.string = yacybot ($$SYSTEM$$) http://yacy.net/bot.html

crawler.userAgent.minimumdelta = 500

crawler.userAgent.clienttimeout = 10000

timeoutrequests = true experiments with timeout requests

Indexing-exclusion - rules

There rules are important to reduce the number of words that are indexed.

We distinguish three different sets of stop-words:

xsstopw=true

xdstopw=true

xpstopw=true

filterOutStopwordsFromTopwords=true Topwords filtering. If set to true, all stopwords (stopwords.yacy) are filtered from the topwords. Change to false if requesting hits from peers with modified stopwords-file and using the unchanged client-version.

crawling steering: must-match/must-not-match:

crawlingIPMustMatch=.*

crawlingIPMustNotMatch=

crawlingCountryMustMatch=AD,AL,AT,BA,BE,BG,BY,CH,CY,CZ,DE,DK,EE,ES,FI,FO,FR,GG,GI,GR,HR,HU,IE,IM,IS,IT,JE,LI,LT,LU,LV,MC,MD,MK,MT,NL,NO,PL,PT,RO,RU,SE,SI,SJ,SK,SM,TR,UA,UK,VA,YU The default country codes are all codes for countries in Europe

Collections for index data separation

These collections can either be used to produce search tenants.

The collection is used in the site-parameter in the GSA interface.

Collections are assigned during crawl-time and defined in the crawl start.

The YaCyScheme field collection_sxt must be switched on to use this field.

collection=user

Crawler limits

crawlPause: delay time after specific functions before crawling is resumed

crawlPause.proxy=10

crawlPause.localsearch=50

crawlPause.remotesearch=10

crawler.clientTimeout=30000 Some configuration values for the crawler

http crawler specific settings; size in bytes:

crawler.http.accept=text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8

crawler.http.acceptEncoding=gzip

crawler.http.acceptLanguage=en-us,en;q=0.5

crawler.http.acceptCharset=ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7

crawler.http.maxFileSize=10485760

crawler.http.FollowRedirects=true

crawler.http.RecordRedirects=false

crawler.ftp.maxFileSize=10485760 ftp crawler specific settings; size in bytes.

smb crawler specific settings:

crawler.smb.maxFileSize=100000000 maximum size

crawler.file.maxFileSize=100000000 maximum file size

crawler.MaxActiveThreads = 200 maximum number of crawler threads

crawler.MaxSameHostInQueue = 20 maximum number of same hosts in crawler threads

crawler.defaultAverageLatency = 500 default latency is the start value of the average of remote server response time

crawler.latencyFactor = 0.5 the latency factor is a factor that is applied to the average remote server latency. The result is the minimum remote server access delay time.

crawler.onDemandLimit = 1000 The onDemandLimit is the maximum number of crawl queues that are concurrently opened at the same time. If the number of hosts exceeds this number, onDemand queues are opened which are opened each time a queue is accessed which creates high IO load. On the other hand, having too many entries in onDemandLimit may exceed the maximum number of file pointers. You can increase this number in /proc/sys/fs/file-max and adopt it to the number defined here.

Autocrawl configuration

autocrawl=false

Performance settings

performanceIO is a percent-value. a value of 10 means, that 10% of the busysleep time is used to flush the RAM cache, which is the major part of the IO in YaCy:

performanceProfile=defaults/yacy.init

performanceSpeed=100

performanceIO=10

Cleanup process

properties for tasks that are performed during cleanup

cleanup.deletionProcessedNews = true

cleanup.deletionPublishedNews = true

cleanup.failedSearchURLtimeout = 86400000

Memory settings

default memory settings for startup of yacy is valid in unix/shell and windows environments but not for first startup of YaCy

javastart_Xmx=Xmx600m -Xmx maximum/init Java heap size

YaCy is able to use RAM copies of database tables. This needs a lot of RAM. To switch on copying of file tables int RAM, there must be enough memory The memory that is available at startup time is used to switch the feature on

tableCachingLimit=419430400 The tableCachingLimit is the amount of free RAM at startup time to switch on the feature

some java versions may be limited to a specific array size of 134217727 entries. To prevent that tables of that size are generated, set this property to false

If you want to have better performance and switch ramcopy on, try also to set this property to true

exceed134217727=false this value is automatically set to true, if more than two gigabyte is available

javastart_priority=10 priority of the yacy-process. Is valid in unix/shell and windows environments but not for first startup of YaCy. UNIX: corresponds to the nice-level. WIN: -20=realtime;-15=high;-10=above;0=normal;10=below;20=low.

wordCacheMaxCount = 20000 performance properties for the word index cache. wordCacheMaxLow/High is the number of word indexes that shall be held in the ram cache during indexing. If you want to increase indexing speed, increase this value i.e. up to one million, but increase also the memory limit to a minimum of 2GB.

Transparent proxy

isTransparentProxy=false Specifies if yacy can be used as transparent http proxy.

Please note that you also have to reconfigure your firewall before you can use yacy as transparent proxy. On linux this can be done like this: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s 192.168.0.0/16 \ --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.1:8090

With the iptables filter listed above all http traffic that comes from your private network (in this case 192.168.0.0) and goes to any webserver listening on port 80 will be forwarded by the firewall to yacy running on port 8090 (192.168.0.1:8090)

proxy.clientTimeout = 60000 Specifies the timeout the proxy sould use

proxy.sendViaHeader=true Specifies if the proxy should send the via header according to RFC

proxy.sendXForwardedForHeader=true Specifies if the proxy should send the X-Forwarded-For header

proxy.monitorCookies=false Enable cookie monitoring

Message Forwarding

Specifies if yacy should forward received messages via email to the configured email address

msgForwardingEnabled=false

msgForwardingCmd=/usr/sbin/sendmail

msgForwardingTo=root@localhost

Indexing

snapshots.wkhtmltopdf.timeout = 30 The maximum time in seconds to wait for each wkhtmltopdf call when rendering PDF snapshots. Beyond that limit the process is killed.

indexer.slots = 100 maximum size of indexing queue

stacker.slots = 2000 maximum size of stacker queue

Search settings

search.options = true show advanced options on main search page

search domains. If set to false then that search is not available:

search.text = true

search.image = true

search.audio = false

search.video = false

search.app = false

Strict content domain filtering

when false, results can be extended to documents including links to documents of contentdom type, whithout being themselves of that type.

Examples:

search.strictContentDom = false

search.items = 10 number of search results per page displayed by default

Target for search results

this is the href target attribute inside every search result link.

Possible values:

search.target = _self

search.target.special = _self

search.target.special.pattern =

search.result.noreferrer=false When true, override the global referrer.meta.policy value and add the standard noreferrer link type to search results links : this instructs the browser that it should not send any referrer information at all when visiting them. Be careful: some websites might reject requests with no referrer. Supported by more browsers than the meta referrer tag.

Additional search page information

Search result lines may show additional information for each search hit.

These information pieces may be switched on or off.

search.result.show.favicon = true When true the favicon (when available) of the website the URL belongs to is fetched and displayed

search.result.show.keywords = false

search.result.keywords.firstMaxCount = 100 Maximum number of keywords initially displayed. The eventual remaining ones can then be expanded.

search.result.show.date = true

search.result.show.size = false

search.result.show.metadata = false

search.result.show.parser = false

search.result.show.citation = true

search.result.show.pictures = false

search.result.show.proxy = false

search.result.show.indexbrowser = true

search.result.show.vocabulary = false

search.result.show.vocabulary.omit = Set of comma separated vocabulary names not to be used as search results facets

search.result.show.snapshots = false

search.result.show.ranking = false when true, display the raw ranking score value

Access limits

Maximum numbers of accesses within a given time period to the search interface for unauthenticated users and authenticated users with no extended search right:

search.public.max.access.3s = 60

search.public.max.access.1mn = 600

search.public.max.access.10mn = 3000

Maximum numbers of accesses within a given time period to the search interface in P2P mode for unauthenticated users and authenticated users with no extended search right:

search.public.max.p2p.access.3s = 1 search.public.max.p2p.access.1mn = 6 search.public.max.p2p.access.10mn = 60

Maximum numbers of accesses within a given time period to the search interface in P2P mode with browser-side JavaScript remote results resorting for unauthenticated users and authenticated users with no extended search right:

search.public.max.p2p.jsresort.access.3s = 1

search.public.max.p2p.jsresort.access.1mn = 1

search.public.max.p2p.jsresort.access.10mn = 10

Maximum number of accesses within a given time period to the search interface to support fetching remote results snippets for unauthenticated users and authenticated users with no extended search right

search.public.max.remoteSnippet.access.1mn = 4

search.public.max.remoteSnippet.access.10mn = 20

Search navigators

comma-separated list of default values for search navigation.

By default navigators keys are sorted by descending counts. To sort by ascending displayed labels, add the :label suffix (example : hosts:label).

The sort direction can also be specified with the :asc or :desc suffixes (example : hosts:label:desc) can be temporary different if search string is given with different navigation values assigning no value(s) means that no navigation is shown.

search.navigation=location,hosts,authors,namespace,topics,filetype,protocol,language

search.navigation=location,hosts:label,authors,namespace,topics,filetype,protocol,language,collections,date,year,year:dates_in_content_dts:Event A lot of navigation shown

search.navigation.maxcount=100 max number of items displayed in search navigators

search.navigation.dates.maxcount=640 max number of items displayed in the dates navigator

Search result verification and snippet fetch caching rules

each search result can be verified byloading the link from the web.

this can be enhanced using a cache. In some cases it may be appropriate to not verify the link at all and do not compute a snippet the possible cases are:

search.verify = ifexist

search.excludehosts=

search.excludehosth=

search.verify.delete = true in case that a link verification fails then the corresponding index reference can be deleted to clean up the index. If this property is set then failed index verification in the cases of nocache, iffresh and ifexist causes an index deletion

search.jsresort = false If enabled, the results are sorted in the browser using Javascript. This usually improves ranking accuracy, but doesn't work well for users who have Javascript disabled, are using screen readers, or are on slow computers.

Remote search details

remotesearch.maxcount = 10

remotesearch.maxtime = 3000

remotesearch.result.store=true

remotesearch.result.store.maxsize=-1 Maximum size allowed (in bytes) for a remote document result to be stored to local index. Defaults to -1, which means no limit.

remotesearch.maxload.rwi=8.0 remotesearch.maxload.solr=4.0

remotesearch.https.preferred = false When available on the target peer, whether https should be preferred to perform remote search

remote.solr.binaryResponse.enabled=true Controls whether remote Solr instances responses should be binary encoded. Responses are transferred as XML when set to false.

useYacyReferer = false specifies if yacy should set it's own referer if no referer URL was set by the client.

Search Profiles

we will support different search profiles

If this profile setting is empty, a hard-coded profile is used to initialise the values search.ranking.rwi.profile =

The boost fields contains all fields which shall be searched together with a boost. non-mentioned fields are not searched.

Boost queries are added to all queries; functions evaluate a value which is either added or multiplied with the ranking.

The field boostfunctionmode can be either 'add' or 'multiply' to describe the mode.

All boost methods > 0 must have names to be able to select this name with a query, with the syntax /name

The bostfields setting is of special importance as these are the fields used to query for search terms

  2. indexTransfer: which can be used to transfer the whole index of a peer this can be started via IndexTransfer_p.html

  3. indexControl: which can be triggered manually via IndexControl_p.html to transfer a chosen subset of the peer index

indexDistribution.gzipBody = true

indexTransfer.gzipBody = true

Federated index storage and federated search functionality

Federated search means that other search engines may be used together with the built-in indexing.

Each federated search may be able to be used as remote indexing service and/or as remote search service.

A typical use case for a federated search is a concurrent search from opensearch sources.

A typical use case for a remote indexing service is a remote solr index. YaCy supports remote solr indexes.

Solr indexes can be filled if enabled is set to true.

the remote index scheme is the same as produced by the SolrCell; see http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtractingRequestHandler

Because this default scheme is used the default example scheme can be used as solr configuration.

To use this, do the following:

federated.service.solr.indexing.enabled = false

federated.service.solr.indexing.url = http://127.0.0.1:8983/solr

federated.service.solr.indexing.sharding = MODULO_HOST_MD5

federated.service.solr.indexing.lazy = true the lazy attribute causes that fields containing "" or 0 are not added and not written

federated.service.solr.indexing.timeout = 60000

federated.service.solr.indexing.writeEnabled = true

federated.service.solr.indexing.authenticated.allowSelfSigned = false Set to true when TLS is enabled with a self-signed certificated on a main external Solr with authentication required ( its URL looks like https://user:password@localhost:8984/solr/)

Temporary definition of backend services to use.

After the migration a rwi+solr combination is used, the solr contains the content of the previously used metadata-db.

To get a handle for a migration, these values are defined as temporary, if the migration starts the values are renamed and defined with different default values.

The citation service is used for ranking; this is a reverse linking index. It should be on before and after the migration. It can be switched off if only a remote solr index is used.

core.service.fulltext = true

core.service.rwi.tmp = true

core.service.citation.tmp = false

core.service.webgraph.tmp = false

Augmentation settings

parserAugmentation = false

parserAugmentation.RDFa = false

Host browser settings

browser.autoload = false Allow the administrator to stack URLs to the local crawl queue from the host browser page, automatically (when a path is unknown) or manually through a "load and index" link

browser.load4everyone = false Allow everyone to stack URLs to the local crawl queue. "browser.autoload" has also to be set to true to enable automatic loading on an unknown path.

Greedy learning

Fast information acquisition heuristic for new peers.

To make greedy learning work, it must be enabled in the network definition the user may switch it off at any time, but if the automatic learning limit is reached then the active flag is set to false automatically and this will switch to that state automatically by the cleanup process each time if the user switches it on again. While the switch in on, it will cause that the user-submitted search will be done along with some heuristics like: loading linked documents and adding a twitter search. When the learning mode is finished, the user may switch on individual heuristics by himself.
