public class NetworkCrawler extends AbstractListCrawler<URL>
This class handles a list of URLs pointing to data files or zip/jar on
the net. Since the net is not a tree structure the list elements
cannot be top elements recursively browsed as in DirectoryCrawler, they must be data files or zip/jar archives.
The files fetched from network can be locally cached on disk. This prevents too frequent network access if the URLs are remote ones (for example original internet URLs).
If the URL points to a remote server (typically on the web) on the other side of a proxy server, you need to configure the networking layer of your application to use the proxy. For a typical authenticating proxy as used in many corporate environments, this can be done as follows using for example the AuthenticatorDialog graphical authenticator class that can be found in the tests directories:
System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "proxy.your.domain.com");
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "8080");
System.setProperty("http.nonProxyHosts", "localhost|*.your.domain.com");
Authenticator.setDefault(new AuthenticatorDialog());
All registered
filters are applied.
Zip archives entries are supported recursively.
This is a simple application of the visitor design pattern for
list browsing.
