Additionally, the following two attributes can be placed within the <item-group> tag. See the “crawler”
section on page B-35 for a detailed description of the following two attributes:
• srcPrefix
• cdnPrefix
These two attributes convert the prefix of the src-url (content acquisition URL) to the cdn-url
(publishing URL) for multiple content objects. These content objects are either implicitly specified by
multiple <item> tags or acquired through a crawler job.
These two attributes can also be specified in the <crawler> tag. If you explicitly specify the srcPrefix
attribute and cdnPrefix attribute for an individual <crawler> job, the <crawler> tag-level specification
takes precedence over the <item-group> tag-level settings. If you do not specify these attributes for an
individual <crawler> job, the <item-group> tag-level specification is inherited by the <crawler> job.
The srcPrefix and cdnPrefix attributes generate the relative CDS network URL using the following rules:
• If the cdn-url attribute is present in the <item> tag, the relative CDS network URL contains both the
cdnPrefix attribute plus the cdn-url attribute. For example, if cdnPrefix=“eng/spec” and
cdn-url=“e/f.html,” the relative path in the URL is “eng/spec/e/f.html.”
• If the srcPrefix attribute is not present in the <item> tag, the relative CDS network URL is the
cdnPrefix attribute plus the relative source URL.
• If the prefix of the relative source URL does not match the srcPrefix attribute, the relative CDS
network URL is the cdnPrefix attribute plus the relative source URL.
• To generate a relative CDS network URL, remove the matched prefix from the relative source URL
and replace it with the cdnPrefix attribute.
The relative CDS network URL of <item> in the following example is “acme/default.htm.”
<item-group cdnPrefix="acme/" >
<item src="design/index.html" cdn-url="default.html" />
</item-group>
In the following example, content objects with the srcPrefix attribute, such as “design/plan/,” have the
relative CDS network URL as “acme/” plus relative source URLs stripped of “design/plan/.” Other
content objects with a prefix attribute that does not match “design/plan/” have “acme/” plus their original
relative source URL.
<crawler
start-url="design/plan/index.html"
depth="-1"
srcPrefix="design/plan/"
cdnPrefix="acme/" />
