OpenSearch
An OpenSearch implementation for Elgg
Requirements
A working OpenSearch server is required. Also the minute cron has to be working on your Elgg installation. The minute cron is used to update the index with all the required changes (create/update/delete).
The current supported version of OpenSearch is: 2.5.x
Configuration
Settings
The plugin settings allow you to configure the following:
- Hosts: 1 or more hosts need to be configured (full URL + optional port number). You can provide more hosts comma seperated.
- Index: Name of the index used for indexing Elgg data and search queries
- Search alias (optional): Name of the alias to use in search queries, this allows for easy searching across multiple indices
Index Management
The index management page (found under Administer -> OpenSearch -> Indices in the admin sidebar) allows you to perform various actions on all the indexes available on the OpenSearch server. The following actions are supported:
- Create: This action can only be performed if the index configured in the plugin settings page is not yet available. It will create the default index configuration to be used for search.
- Alias: Add/remove the configured alias to the index (this allows searching across multiple indices)
- Delete: This will remove the index from the server (this action can not be undone)
Administration
Log files
Based on the log level of your Elgg site, there will also be logging of the OpenSearch PHP client library. Logging will appear in the same location as all other Elgg logs.
Statistics
You can find various statistics on the Administer -> OpenSearch -> Statistics page. Elgg statistics report on the amount of entities found in the Elgg database that should be in the index. It also reports on the amount of entities that need to be added/updated/deleted in the index and that are currently waiting on the minute cron to process them.
Also some statistics from the OpenSearch Cluster are shown like the status and the version information.
You can also find statistics for all available indexes on this page.
CLI commands
CLI commands are available to be used with the default elgg-cli
command
opensearch:rebuild
This command will rebuild the current OpenSearch index with new configuration and/or mappings. This only works when there is an active index. Only use this command when a change was made to the index configuration and/or mappings.
opensearch:sync
This command will synchronize all pending entities to the OpenSearch index. This is especially usefull during the reindexing process of the database because a lot of entities need to be indexed. Using the normal cron task in this case could take a long time.
Recommendations
Use the Search Advanced plugin to add extra features to search. If both are enabled this plugin provides a menu to sort/order the results.
