Search API Elasticsearch Attachments
====================================

[](#search-api-elasticsearch-attachments)

*forked from: [https://git.drupalcode.org/project/search\_api\_elasticsearch\_attachments](https://git.drupalcode.org/project/search_api_elasticsearch_attachments)*

Elasticsearch is generally used to index data of types like string, number, date, etc.

However, what if you wanted to index a file like a .pdf or a .doc directly and make it searchable?

This module allows Drupal to index files (attachments) to Elasticsearch by making use of Elasticsearch data type "attachment".

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

This module requires:

- Drupal 8
- Search API Module
- Elasticsearch Connector module (8.x-6.0-alpha1 or higher)

Elasticsearch Plugin Installation
---------------------------------

[](#elasticsearch-plugin-installation)

The first step is to install the Elasticsearch plugin: `ingest-attachment`, which enables ES to recognise the "attachment" data type. In turn, it uses Apache Tika for content extraction and supports several file types such as .pdf, .doc, .xls, .rtf, .html, .odt, etc.

```
$ES_HOME> bin/elasticsearch-plugin install ingest-attachment

```

Thats the hard work done.

```
