             Summary: Enable IndexingJob to function with no crawldb
                 Key: NUTCH-2184
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2184
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: indexer
            Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
            Assignee: Lewis John McGibbney
             Fix For: 1.12


Sometimes when working with distributed team(s), we have found that we can 
'loose' data structures which are currently considered as critical e.g. 
crawldb, linkdb and/or segments.
In my current scenario I have a requirement to index segment data with no 
accompanying crawldb or linkdb. 
Absence of the latter is OK as linkdb is optional however currently in 
[IndexerMapReduce|https://github.com/apache/nutch/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/nutch/indexer/IndexerMapReduce.java]
 crawldb is mandatory. 
This ticket should enhance the IndexerMapReduce code to support the use case 
where you ONLY have segments and want to force an index for every record 
present.
