Indexing with Proxy

Purpose

Proxy Indexing Monitor shows documents indexed through proxy use.

Use it when YaCy is configured as a proxy and browsing activity feeds the index.

What You Can Do Here

• Proxy Indexing Monitor shows documents indexed through proxy use.
• Filter or limit the view to the symptom being investigated.
• Use the observation to decide the next crawler, index, network, or configuration action.

Page Architecture

Monitoring pages read live peer state from queues, logs, network tables, memory counters, or process trackers. They are safest when used first as observation tools and only then as entry points to tuning pages.

Control	Meaning	Values or examples
proxyYacyOnly	.yacy-domains only.	.yacy-domains only
proxyPrefetchDepth	Prefetch Depth.	Integer value.
proxyStoreHTCache	Store to Cache.	Store to Cache
proxyIndexingLocalText	Do Local Text-Indexing.	Do Local Text-Indexing
proxyIndexingLocalMedia	Do Local Media-Indexing.	Do Local Media-Indexing
proxyIndexingRemote	Do Remote Indexing.	Do Remote Indexing
proxyCache	Path.	Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
proxyCacheSize	Size.	Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
proxyprofileset	.yacy-domains only.	Set proxy profile

Correct Use

Use monitoring pages as evidence, not as guesses. Capture the current state, then connect it to the user-visible symptom: slow search, missing documents, stuck crawl, memory pressure, network isolation, or unexpected access.

Access And Safety

Administrator access is required. YaCy protects _p pages as administration pages.

Protected related endpoint(s): /ProxyIndexingMonitor_p.html.

Parameter Guide

The table explains values that an agent or script must set deliberately. Parameters not relevant to a task should be omitted or left at the page default.

Parameter	Meaning and valid values	Care
proxyYacyOnly	.yacy-domains only.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyPrefetchDepth	Prefetch Depth.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyStoreHTCache	Store to Cache.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyIndexingLocalText	Do Local Text-Indexing.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyIndexingLocalMedia	Do Local Media-Indexing.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyIndexingRemote	Do Remote Indexing.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyCache	Path.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyCacheSize	Size.	Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default.
proxyprofileset	.yacy-domains only.	Changes stored data, configuration, or a running job. Use the authenticated action flow where required and verify the result.

Example request shape:

POST /ProxyIndexingMonitor_p.html
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

proxyYacyOnly=...&proxyPrefetchDepth=...&proxyStoreHTCache=...&proxyIndexingLocalText=...&proxyIndexingLocalMedia=...

What To Expect

Expect observations: counts, logs, queues, timing, network rows, thread states, or resource values. Monitoring does not fix the issue by itself; it points to the next page or setting to change.
