Can't find network definition file?

YaCy

In the docs, it outlines how to make a network through the definition file:

the network definition file is “yacy.network.freeworld.unit”, but I can’t find it.

In yacy_search_server_data/INDEX/freeworld there’s
NETWORK QUEUES SEGMENTS

In this folder:
INDEX/freeworld/SEGMENTS/default
There’s total nonsense files.

In the network folder, it has these:

mySeed.txt news1024.db newsIn.table newsOut.table newsProcessed.table newsPublished.table seed.new.heap seed.old.heap seed.pot.heap

But no “network.freeworld.unit” definition file to copy or change.

I’m using the docker version,
This folder:


/srv/yacy/yacy_search_server_data/INDEX/freeworld/SEGMENTS/default

Only has blob files. There’s no freeworld.unit

Ahh!
I’ve never used docker.
so okybaca got no idea :frowning:
(me neither programmed yacy nor understand its code. i just use it for some years and try to document the black-box as i go, from what i observe, hoping it would help)
But if you somehow examine that, could you write a resume for the others?
afaik, there is a docker readme as well.

Is that you want to modify the network definition? Could the solution be building docker image by yourself?

I am looking to link 2 VPS on a network.
Damn docker images don’t let you modify this? So I should install the regular headless version without docker?

Hi James, i got no idea about Docker, never used it.
But would you able to compile your own docker image, using sources from github? Then you could modify everything…
