Removed Search Manual Section "CAE Feeder for API Use"

The Search Manual's outdated section "Searching for CAE Content Beans | CAE Feeder for API Use" has been removed. It covered a rare use case where the public API was used to implement a custom application for updating the search engine programmatically. We assume that this functionality is not needed anymore, or could be better solved with Solr API itself. The API is still there and can be used, but the use case is not highlighted in the documentation anymore. Please get in touch with CoreMedia Support, if you are using this functionality and need help during the upgrade.

Add ignoredDependencies configuration to ModularOneRepoEnforcerRule

With the update of coremedia-enforcer-rules to 1.2.1 , dependencies can now be excluded from the ModularOneRepoEnforcerRule by adding an ignoredDependencies element to the rule, which works the same way as in the maven-dependency-plugin. The filter syntax is: groupId:artifactId:type:version where each pattern segment is optional and supports full and partial * wildcards. An empty pattern segment is treated as an implicit wildcard.

Changed Configuration Properties for Search And Feeder

Some configuration properties for the Solr connection and for Feeder applications have been renamed as part of an initiative to use Spring Boot's type-safe ConfigurationProperties . The old property names all still work as before but some have been deprecated. It's not required to change your configuration now. If possible, we recommend to migrate to the new property names.

Applications that use Solr to search for editorial content like Studio should specify the name of the 'studio' collection with property solr.content.collection instead of solr.collection.content .

Applications that use Solr for the web-site search like the CAE should specify the name of the 'preview' or 'live' collection with property solr.cae.collection instead of solr.collection.cae .

See sections 'Content Feeder Renamed Properties' and 'CAE Feeder Renamed Properties' in the reference chapter of the Search Manual for old and new property names for Feeder applications.

Note, that the old properties feeder.sendIdleDelay , feeder.sendMaxDelay , feeder.retrySendIdleDelay , and feeder.retrySendMaxDelay take a value in seconds for the Content Feeder, but a value in milliseconds for the CAE Feeder. This hasn't changed. The new properties feeder.batch.send-idle-delay , feeder.batch.send-max-delay , feeder.batch.retry-send-idle-delay , and feeder.batch.retry-send-max-delay take milliseconds for both Content Feeder and CAE Feeder (if the value does not specify a different Spring Boot duration unit like 's').
