Package edu.cornell.mannlib.vitro.webapp.search.controller

Class IndexController

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    MultipartRequestWrapper.ParsingStrategy, Serializable, javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig
    @WebServlet(name="IndexController",
            urlPatterns="/SearchIndex")
public class IndexController
extends FreemarkerHttpServlet
    Accepts requests to display the current status of the search index, or to initiate a rebuild. A DISPLAY or REBUILD request is handled like any other FreemarkerHttpServlet. A STATUS is an AJAX request, we override doGet() so we can format the template without enclosing it in a body template. When initialized, this servlet adds a listener to the SearchIndexer, so it can maintain a history of activity. This will provide the contents of the display.

      • requiredActions

        protected AuthorizationRequest requiredActions​(VitroRequest vreq)
        Description copied from class: FreemarkerHttpServlet
        By default, a page requires authorization for no actions. Subclasses that require authorization to process their page will override to return the actions that require authorization. In some cases, the choice of actions will depend on the contents of the request. NB This method can't be static, because then the superclass method gets called rather than the subclass method. For the same reason, it can't refer to a static or instance field REQUIRED_ACTIONS which is overridden in the subclass.
        Overrides:
        requiredActions in class FreemarkerHttpServlet
