Is it possible to fetch only pages from some specific domains?
Please have a look on PrefixURLFilter. Adding some regular expressions to the urlfilter.regex.file might work, but adding a list with thousands of regular expressions would slow down your system excessively. Alternatively, you can set db.ignore.external.links to “true”, and inject seeds from the domains you wish to crawl (these seeds must link to all pages you wish to crawl, directly or indirectly). Doing this will let the crawl go through only these domains without leaving to start crawling external links. Unfortunately there is no way to record external links encountered for future processing, although a very small patch to the generator code can allow you to log these links to hadoop.log.
