Defined in:
app/models/sfx_url.rb

Overview

Just an indexed list of URLs extracted from SFX, urls we believe are sfx-controlled. Kind of an ugly hack, kind of duplicates the local journal index if in use, but we need it to suppress catalog URLs if they duplicate what SFX ought to control.

Class Method Details

.sfx_controls_url?(url) ⇒ Boolean

Pass in a string, we tell you if we think SFX controls this URL– that is, if the SFX KB handles resources at this URL, or not. It’s really just a guess for a bunch of reasons, but best we can do. We just check hostname, which could create false positives. Checking entire URL won’t work. Lots of things in SFX could create false negatives.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
