Lucene 6.0 实战-索引备份No index commit to snapshot

备份之前先提交

在使用Lucene进行索引备份的时候，报错

Exception in thread “main” java.lang.IllegalStateException: No index commit to snapshot
at org.apache.lucene.index.SnapshotDeletionPolicy.snapshot(SnapshotDeletionPolicy.java:160)

其中导致抛错的代码是

1
2
3

SnapshotDeletionPolicy snapshotDeletionPolicy = (SnapshotDeletionPolicy)
indexWriter.getConfig().getIndexDeletionPolicy();
IndexCommit snapshot = snapshotDeletionPolicy.snapshot();

查看snapshot()方法源码发现

if (lastCommit == null) {
  // No commit yet, eg this is a new IndexWriter:
  throw new IllegalStateException("No index commit to snapshot");
}

可见如果是第一次也就是说还没有commit过，这种情况通常是第一次使用IndexWriter的时候，那么就会抛此异常。解决办法很简单，就是在热备之前commit索引，将所有的缓存flush到硬盘，这也是热备的正确逻辑，可以确保将索引的最新变动保存到备份之中。

确保使用同一个SnapshotDeletionPolicy

另外还有一点需要注意，如果你在备份的时候使用的是新new的SnapshotDeletionPolicy，那么同样会抛出此异常

1

SnapshotDeletionPolicy snapshot= new SnapshotDeletionPolicy(new KeepOnlyLastCommitDeletionPolicy());
IndexCommit commit = snapshot.snapshot();
Collection<String> fileNames = commit.getFileNames();

这是因为采用new的形式得到的SnapshotDeletionPolicy和最初实例化IndexWriter的时候使用的并不是同一个，所以对于IndexWriter所做的提交，新的SnapshotDeletionPolicy是无法知道的。正确方式如下

IndexWriterConfig config = (IndexWriterConfig) indexWriter.getConfig();
SnapshotDeletionPolicy snapshotDeletionPolicy = (SnapshotDeletionPolicy) 
config.getIndexDeletionPolicy();
IndexCommit snapshot = snapshotDeletionPolicy.snapshot();
//设置索引提交点，默认是null，会打开最后一次提交的索引点
config.setIndexCommit(snapshot);
Collection<String> fileNames = snapshot.getFileNames();
