Class ReplicationClient

A client which monitors and obtains new revisions from a IReplicator. It can be used to either periodically check for updates by invoking StartUpdateThread(Int64, String), or manually by calling UpdateNow().

Whenever a new revision is available, the RequiredFiles(IDictionary<String, IList<RevisionFile>>) are copied to the Directory specified by PerSessionDirectoryFactory and a handler is notified.

Inheritance

Namespace: Lucene.Net.Replicator

Assembly: Lucene.Net.Replicator.dll

Syntax

public class ReplicationClient : IDisposable

Remarks

This is a Lucene.NET EXPERIMENTAL API, use at your own risk

Constructors

ReplicationClient(IReplicator, IReplicationHandler, ISourceDirectoryFactory)

Constructor.

Declaration

public ReplicationClient(IReplicator replicator, IReplicationHandler handler, ISourceDirectoryFactory factory)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IReplicator	replicator	The IReplicator used for checking for updates
IReplicationHandler	handler	The IReplicationHandler notified when new revisions are ready
ISourceDirectoryFactory	factory	The ISourceDirectoryFactory for returning a Directory for a given source and session

Fields

INFO_STREAM_COMPONENT

The component name to use with IsEnabled(String)

Declaration

public const string INFO_STREAM_COMPONENT = null

Field Value

Type	Description
System.String

Properties

InfoStream

Gets or sets the InfoStream to use for logging messages.

Declaration

public virtual InfoStream InfoStream { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
InfoStream

IsUpdateThreadAlive

Returns true if the update thread is alive. The update thread is alive if it has been StartUpdateThread(Int64, String) and not StopUpdateThread(), as well as didn't hit an error which caused it to terminate (i.e. HandleUpdateException(Exception) threw the exception further).

Declaration

public virtual bool IsUpdateThreadAlive { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Boolean

Methods

Dispose()

Declaration

public void Dispose()

Dispose(Boolean)

Declaration

protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Boolean	disposing

EnsureOpen()

Throws if the client has already been disposed.

Declaration

protected void EnsureOpen()

HandleUpdateException(Exception)

Called when an exception is hit by the replication thread. The default implementation prints the full stacktrace to the InfoStream set in InfoStream, or the Default one. You can override to log the exception elsewhere.

Declaration

protected virtual void HandleUpdateException(Exception exception)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Exception	exception

Remarks

NOTE: If you override this method to throw the exception further, the replication thread will be terminated. The only way to restart it is to call StopUpdateThread() followed by StartUpdateThread(Int64, String).

RequiredFiles(IDictionary<String, IList<RevisionFile>>)

Returns the files required for replication. By default, this method returns all files that exist in the new revision, but not in the handler.

Declaration

protected virtual IDictionary<string, IList<RevisionFile>> RequiredFiles(IDictionary<string, IList<RevisionFile>> newRevisionFiles)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IDictionary<System.String, IList<RevisionFile>>	newRevisionFiles

Returns

Type	Description
IDictionary<System.String, IList<RevisionFile>>

StartUpdateThread(Int64, String)

Start the update thread with the specified interval in milliseconds. For debugging purposes, you can optionally set the name to set on Lucene.Net.Replicator.ReplicationClient.ReplicationThread.Name. If you pass null, a default name will be set.

Declaration

public virtual void StartUpdateThread(long intervalMillis, string threadName)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Int64	intervalMillis
System.String	threadName

StopUpdateThread()

Stop the update thread. If the update thread is not running, silently does nothing. This method returns after the update thread has stopped.

Declaration

public virtual void StopUpdateThread()

ToString()

Declaration

public override string ToString()

Returns

Type	Description
System.String

UpdateNow()

Executes the update operation immediately, regardless if an update thread is running or not.

Declaration

public virtual void UpdateNow()
