pocketlaw-automation

Handy scripts to support PocketLaw. This repo includes:

• Script to automate the generation of content packs
• Script to automate the generation of the offline search index

Docker

This repo builds a single Docker image for both content extraction and building the search index.

1. Build the image:

   docker build -t pl-content .
   

2. Build a volume to be attached to the crawl image:

   mkdir data
   

3. Run the container in detached mode with the required environment variables for the current product:

   docker run -d \
       -v $(pwd)/data:/extraction/data \
       -e PRODUCT_HOSTNAME="zimlii.org" \
       -e ES_INDEX="zimlii,zimlii_*" \
       -e AWS_REGION="eu-west-1" \
       -e AWS_KEY="<YOUR_AWS_CLI_KEY>" \
       -e AWS_SECRET="<YOUR_AWS_CLI_SECRET>" \
       pl-content
   

Content Packs

To generate content packs from a zimlii.warc archive:

python warc_processor.py --product zimlii --archive ./zimlii.warc

All generated files are stored in the files folder as follows:

    .

Offline Search Index

To extract the search index from Elasticsearch:

1. Install Logstash by following these instructions
2. Install the required Logstash plugins:

   $ logstash-plugin install logstash-input-elasticsearch
   

3. Run the script with the required environment variables:

   $ cd search_index
   $ ES_HOST=localhost:9200 \
       ES_INDEX=peachjam \
       JSON_OUTPUT_DEST=./offline_search_index.json \
       ./make-search-index.sh
   

4. The resulting offline_search_index.json is ready for integration on Pocketlaw
