Bypass GCcollab authentication for the Solr user agent #360

Closed 4rsood closed 5 years ago

4rsood commented 6 years ago

Since the gccollab site dynamically generates tokens to authenticate, currently any attempts to crawl the site from the solr server on our network are being blocked. An application change is required to bypass the authentication if the request comes from a specific solr user-agent. The name of the solr agent will be provided through a separate message. The change is needed to allow solr server to crawl & index GCcollab contents so that the site can be searched under the GCtools Search.
