To be able to tell service discovery whether to enable a service on a particular runtime, a common base interface DiscoverableService extends BindableService was added.
Refactoring keyword extraction to extract spans information.
Modifying the intermediate storage of converted data to use the new slop library, which is allows for easier storage of ad-hoc binary data like spans and positions.
This is a bit of a katamari damacy commit that ended up dragging along a bunch of other fairly tangentially related changes that are hard to break out into separate commits after the fact. Will push as-is to get back to being able to do more isolated work.
Decorates DocumentSentences with information about which HTML tags they are nested in, and removes some redundant data on this rather memory hungry object. Separator information is encoded as a bit set instead of an array of integers.
The change also cleans up the SentenceExtractor class a fair bit. It no longer extracts ngrams, and a significant amount of redundant operations were removed as well. This is still a pretty unpleasant class to work in, but this is the first step in making it a little bit better.
The change also restructures the internal API a bit, moving resultsFromDomain from RpcRawResultItem into RpcDecoratedResultItem, as the previous order was driving complexity in the code that generates these objects, and the consumer side of things puts all this data in the same object regardless.
Adding new ranking parameters to the API and routing them through the system, in order to permit integration of the new position data with the ranking algorithm.
The change also cleans out several parameters that no longer filled any function.
Add a new rule that crates an alternative path that omits a word if it's a stopword.
In queries where a stopword is present, and no query ngram expansion is possible, the query should not require the stopword to be present in the index, as this results in no search results being found.
Roll back to JDK 21 for now, and make Java version configurable in the root build.gradle
The project has run into no less than three distinct show-stopping bugs in JDK22, across multiple vendors, and gradle still doesn't fully support it, meaning you need multiple JDK versions installed.
