Class IndexVersion

java.lang.Object

org.dspace.app.util.IndexVersion

public class IndexVersion
extends Object

This utility class simply determines the version of a given Solr/Lucene index, so that they can be upgraded to the latest version.

You must pass it the full path of the index directory, e.g. [dspace]/solr/statistics/data/index/

The response is simply a version number (e.g. 4.4), as this is utilized by the "ant update_solr_indexes" target in [src]/dspace/src/main/config/build.xml

Method Detail

main

public static void main(String[] argv)
                 throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

getIndexVersion

public static String getIndexVersion(String indexDirPath)
                              throws IOException

Determine the version of Solr/Lucene which was used to create a given index directory.

Parameters:

indexDirPath - Full path of the Solr/Lucene index directory

Returns:

version as a string (e.g. "4.4"), empty string ("") if index directory is empty, or null if directory doesn't exist.

Throws:

IOException

compareSoftwareVersions

public static int compareSoftwareVersions(String firstVersion,
                          String secondVersion)
                                   throws IOException

Compare two software version numbers to see which is greater. ONLY does a comparison of *major* and *minor* versions (any sub-minor versions are stripped and ignored).

This method returns -1 if firstVersion is less than secondVersion, 1 if firstVersion is greater than secondVersion, and 0 if equal.

However, since we ignore sub-minor versions, versions "4.2.1" and "4.2.5" will be seen as EQUAL (as "4.2" = "4.2").

NOTE: In case it is not obvious, software version numbering does NOT behave like normal decimal numbers. For example, in software versions the following statement is TRUE: 4.1 < 4.4 < 4.5 < 4.10 < 4.21 < 4.51

Parameters:

firstVersion - First version to compare, as a String

secondVersion - Second version to compare as a String

Returns:

-1 if first < second, 1 if first > second, 0 if equal

Throws:

IOException

getLatestVersion

public static String getLatestVersion()

Determine the version of Solr/Lucene which DSpace is currently running. This is the latest version of Solr/Lucene which we can upgrade the index to.

Returns:

version as a string (e.g. "4.4")
