Nutch Dockerfile

Get up and running quickly with Nutch on Docker.

What is Nutch?

Nutch logo

Apache Nutch is a highly extensible and scalable open source web crawler software project.

Nutch can run on a single machine, but gains a lot of its strength from running in a Hadoop cluster

Docker Image

Current configuration of this image consists of components:

  • Nutch 1.x (branch “master”)

Base Image

Tips

You may need to alias docker to “docker --tls” if you see errors such as:

2015/04/07 09:19:56 Post http://192.168.59.103:2376/v1.14/containers/create?name=NutchContainer: malformed HTTP response "\x15\x03\x01\x00\x02\x02\x16"

The easiest way to do this:

  1. alias docker="docker --tls"

Installation

  1. Install Docker.

  2. Build from files in this directory:

    $(boot2docker shellinit | grep export) docker build -t apache/nutch .

Usage

Start docker

boot2docker up
$(boot2docker shellinit | grep export)

Start up an image and attach to it

docker run -t -i -d --name nutchcontainer apache/nutch /bin/bash
docker attach --sig-proxy=false nutchcontainer

Nutch is located in ~/nutch and is almost ready to run. You will need to set seed URLs and update the configuration with your crawler's Agent Name. For additional “getting started” information checkout the Nutch Tutorial.
