## Class CrawlerSessionManagerValve

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase
  - - org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleMBeanBase
    - - org.apache.catalina.valves.ValveBase
      - - org.apache.catalina.valves.CrawlerSessionManagerValve

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    MBeanRegistration, Contained, JmxEnabled, Lifecycle, Valve

      public class CrawlerSessionManagerValve
      extends ValveBase

  Web crawlers can trigger the creation of many thousands of sessions as they crawl a site which may result in significant memory consumption. This Valve ensures that crawlers are associated with a single session - just like normal users - regardless of whether or not they provide a session token with their requests.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### CrawlerSessionManagerValve

          public CrawlerSessionManagerValve()

      Specifies a default constructor so async support can be configured.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### setCrawlerUserAgents

          public void setCrawlerUserAgents(String crawlerUserAgents)

      Specify the regular expression (using `Pattern`) that will be used to identify crawlers based in the User-Agent header provided. The default is ".*GoogleBot.*|.*bingbot.*|.*Yahoo! Slurp.*"
      Parameters:
        `crawlerUserAgents` - The regular expression using `Pattern`

    - #### getCrawlerUserAgents

          public String getCrawlerUserAgents()

      Returns:
        The current regular expression being used to match user agents.
      See Also:
        `setCrawlerUserAgents(String)`

    - #### setCrawlerIps

          public void setCrawlerIps(String crawlerIps)

      Specify the regular expression (using `Pattern`) that will be used to identify crawlers based on their IP address. The default is no crawler IPs.
      Parameters:
        `crawlerIps` - The regular expression using `Pattern`

    - #### getCrawlerIps

          public String getCrawlerIps()

      Returns:
        The current regular expression being used to match IP addresses.
      See Also:
        `setCrawlerIps(String)`

    - #### setSessionInactiveInterval

          public void setSessionInactiveInterval(int sessionInactiveInterval)

      Specify the session timeout (in seconds) for a crawler's session. This is typically lower than that for a user session. The default is 60 seconds.
      Parameters:
        `sessionInactiveInterval` - The new timeout for crawler sessions

    - #### getSessionInactiveInterval

          public int getSessionInactiveInterval()

      Returns:
        The current timeout in seconds
      See Also:
        `setSessionInactiveInterval(int)`

    - #### getClientIpSessionId

          public Map<String,String> getClientIpSessionId()

    - #### isHostAware

          public boolean isHostAware()

    - #### setHostAware

          public void setHostAware(boolean isHostAware)

    - #### isContextAware

          public boolean isContextAware()

    - #### setContextAware

          public void setContextAware(boolean isContextAware)

    - #### initInternal

          protected void initInternal()
                               throws LifecycleException

      Description copied from class: `LifecycleMBeanBase`
      Sub-classes wishing to perform additional initialization should override this method, ensuring that super.initInternal() is the first call in the overriding method.
      Overrides:
        `initInternal` in class `ValveBase`
      Throws:
        `LifecycleException` - If the initialisation fails

    - #### invoke

          public void invoke(Request request,
                    Response response)
                      throws IOException,
                             ServletException

      Description copied from class: `ValveBase`
      The implementation-specific logic represented by this Valve. See the Valve description for the normal design patterns for this method.

      This method MUST be provided by a subclass.

      Specified by:
        `invoke` in interface `Valve`
      Specified by:
        `invoke` in class `ValveBase`
      Parameters:
        `request` - The servlet request to be processed
        `response` - The servlet response to be created
