📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The project adds a versioned crawler dispatcher with V1 and V2 pipelines. V2 retrieves gazette data from an API, validates and filters entries, downloads PDFs, and runs post-processing. Shared spiders, metadata models, configuration, CLI selection, and packaging exports support both pipelines.

Changes

Crawler pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Contracts and configuration
.gitignore, config_example.yaml, gztarchiver/doc_scraper/cmd/parser.py, gztarchiver/models/..., gztarchiver/doc_scraper/utils/..., pyproject.toml
Adds V2 configuration, the --cv option, Pydantic gazette models, V2 download metadata construction, Python ignore patterns, and the pydantic dependency.
Shared download and post-processing
gztarchiver/doc_scraper/common/...
Adds shared PDF downloading, archive and failure-log handling, metadata persistence, and optional DeepSeek classification.
V1 pipeline migration
gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v1/...
Adds V1 spider packages, renames the runner to run_v1_pipeline, and connects V1 to shared downloading and post-processing.
V2 API pipeline
gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v2/...
Adds Playwright token capture, paginated API retrieval, response validation, date and language filtering, PDF downloading, metadata reload, and post-crawl processing.
Runtime pipeline dispatch
gztarchiver/doc_scraper/crawler/..., gztarchiver/doc_scraper/spiders/__init__.py, gztarchiver/main.py
Adds version resolution and executes the selected pipeline through Twisted's deferred runtime flow.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 140df

This PR adds the V2 crawler and shared download flow, but the current implementation can run the wrong crawler, report failed work as successful, hang on an API request, process files that were not downloaded, and allow remote inputs to influence network destinations and archive paths. It is not merge-ready until these correctness, availability, and security issues are resolved or explicitly accepted.

In `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/common/post_processing.py`:
- Around line 59-60: Update the exception handler in the post-processing flow to
log the caught exception and re-raise it instead of returning normally. Preserve
the existing error context while ensuring classification, metadata-save, and
cleanup failures propagate to the caller for run failure and retry.

In `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/common/spiders/doc_download_spider.py`:
- Around line 96-101: Update the metadata flow around filtered_metadata and
post_crawl_processing so entries without a URL are retained only as retry
metadata and are not included in self.download_metadata passed to
post-processing. Ensure post_crawl_processing receives only successfully
downloaded files, while preserving the existing archived-document removal and
save_updated_metadata behavior.

In `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/crawler/dispatcher.py`:
- Around line 11-18: Update main() to read the configured or CLI-selected
crawler version and pass it explicitly to get_crawler_pipeline(), preserving the
dispatcher’s default only when no version is configured.

Apply the same fix in `@gztarchiver/main.py` at line 45: The main entry point
omits the selected version when requesting the pipeline.

Apply the same fix in `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/cmd/parser.py` around lines 11 -
18: The parser already exposes the crawler version that must be forwarded.

In `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/utils/archive_folder_utils.py`:
- Around line 29-31: Update the path-building logic around doc_id and
folder_path to prevent gazetteNoText from escaping archive_location: validate
the normalized document identifier as a safe basename, or resolve the final path
and enforce that it remains contained within archive_location before creating
directories or writing files. Handle both forward- and backslash separators and
reject traversal components while preserving valid document IDs.

In `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v1/spiders/years_spider.py`:
- Around line 22-23: Guard directory creation in YearsSpider.parse
(gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v1/spiders/years_spider.py, lines 22-23) and
DocMetadataSpider.parse
(gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v1/spiders/doc_metadata_spider.py, lines 55-56) by
calling os.makedirs only when os.path.dirname(self.output_path) is non-empty,
while still writing bare filenames normally.
- Around line 19-20: Validate each URL resolved by urljoin before persisting or
scheduling it: require HTTPS and membership in the configured approved-host
allowlist. Apply this to gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v1/spiders/years_spider.py
lines 19-20 and gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v1/spiders/doc_metadata_spider.py lines
40-42, rejecting disallowed links before appending or passing them to requests.

In `@gztarchiver/doc_scraper/v2/runner.py`:
- Around line 138-142: Update the requests.post call in fetch_all_matching to
pass explicit connect and read timeout values, using the project’s established
timeout configuration or constants if available, so stalled connections and
responses cannot block the crawler indefinitely.

In `@gztarchiver/main.py`:
- Around line 53-56: Update the Deferred cleanup flow around _cleanup so it
returns the received result unchanged, records whether the pipeline failed, and
preserves that failure through addBoth. After reactor.run() completes, make the
process exit nonzero when the pipeline failure status was recorded while
retaining the existing successful exit behavior.

In gztarchiver/doc_inspector/utils/categorizing_utils.py process_failed_documents function, we use the log_classification logs to identify all the failed classifications, however this log keeps both the successful records as well as the failed ones. This makes it more expensive to find the failed ones from the log file (when retrying failed classifications).

Is it required to keep a full log of all classified documents? If not, we can only keep the failed ones here (to retry the classification). If it is required, then we should keep the successful and failed classification logs separately.
