Currently [Elasticsearch](http://www.elasticsearch.org) and [Algolia](https://www.algolia.com) are supported. Once the package is installed objects can be easily indexed and retrieved: ``` //$product is an object that implements the Searchable interface SearchIndex::upsertToIndex($product); SearchIndex::getResults('look for this'); ``` Spatie is a webdesign agency in Antwerp, Belgium.

We publish all received postcards on [our virtual postcard wall](https://spatie.be/open-source/postcards). Postcardware ------------ [](#postcardware) You're free to use this package (it's [MIT-licensed](LICENSE.md)), but if it makes it to your production environment you are required to send us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. Our address is: Spatie, Kruikstraat 22, 2018 Antwerp, Belgium. The best postcards will get published on the open source page on our website. Installation ------------ [](#installation) This package can be installed through Composer. ``` composer require spatie/searchindex ``` You must install this service provider. ``` // config/app.php 'providers' => [ ... Spatie\SearchIndex\SearchIndexServiceProvider::class, ]; ``` This package also comes with a facade, which provides an easy way to call the the class. ``` // config/app.php 'aliases' => [ ... 'SearchIndex' => Spatie\SearchIndex\SearchIndexFacade::class, ] ``` You can publish the config-file with: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\SearchIndex\SearchIndexServiceProvider" ``` The options in the config file are set with sane default values and they should be self-explanatory. The next installation steps depend on if you want to use Elasticsearch or Algolia. ### Elasticsearch [](#elasticsearch) To use Elasticsearch you must install the official 1.x series low level client: ``` composer require elasticsearch/elasticsearch "^1.3" ``` You also should have a server with Elasticsearch installed. If you want to install it on your local development machine you can use [these instructions](https://github.com/fideloper/Vaprobash/blob/master/scripts/elasticsearch.sh)from the excellent [Vaprobash repo](https://github.com/fideloper/Vaprobash). ### Algolia [](#algolia) To use Algolia you must install the official low level client: ``` composer require algolia/algoliasearch-client-php ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Prepare your object [](#prepare-your-object) Objects that you want to store in the index should implement the provided `Spatie\SearchIndex\Searchable`- interface. ``` namespace Spatie\SearchIndex; interface Searchable { /** * Returns an array with properties which must be indexed * * @return array */ public function getSearchableBody(); /** * Return the type of the searchable subject * * @return string */ public function getSearchableType(); /** * Return the id of the searchable subject * * @return string */ public function getSearchableId(); ``` Here is an example how you could implement it with an Eloquent model: ``` class Product extends Eloquent implements Searchable { ... /** * Returns an array with properties which must be indexed * * @return array */ public function getSearchableBody() { $searchableProperties = [ 'name' => $this->name, 'brand' => $this->brand->name, 'category' => $this->category->name ]; return $searchableProperties; } /** * Return the type of the searchable subject * * @return string */ public function getSearchableType() { return 'product'; } /** * Return the id of the searchable subject * * @return string */ public function getSearchableId() { return $this->id; } } ``` The searchindex will use the returned searchableType and searchableId to identify an object in the index. ### Add an object to the index [](#add-an-object-to-the-index) If you are using the facade it couldn't be simpler. ``` //$product is an object that implements the Searchable interface SearchIndex::upsertToIndex($product); ``` ### Update an object in the index [](#update-an-object-in-the-index) You probably would have guessed it. ``` //$product is an object that implements the Searchable interface SearchIndex::upsertToIndex($product); ``` ### Remove an object from the index [](#remove-an-object-from-the-index) Yep. Easy. ``` //$product is an object that implements the Searchable interface SearchIndex::removeFromIndex($product); ``` Alternatively you can remove an object from the index by passing type and id: ``` SearchIndex::removeFromIndexByTypeAndId('product', 1); ``` This can be handy when you've already deleted your model. ### Clear the entire index [](#clear-the-entire-index) If only you could to this with your facebook account. ``` SearchIndex::clearIndex(); ``` ### Perform a search on the index [](#perform-a-search-on-the-index) You can retrieve search results with this method: ``` SearchIndex::getResults($query); ``` #### Elasticsearch [](#elasticsearch-1) `$query` should be an array that adheres to the scheme provided by [the elasticsearch documentation](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/php-api/current/_search_operations.html). A query to perform a fuzzy like search that operates all fields of the index could look like this: ``` $query = [ 'body' => [ 'from' => 0, 'size' => 500, 'query' => [ 'fuzzy_like_this' => [ '_all' => [ 'like_text' => 'look for this', 'fuzziness' => 0.5, ], ], ], ] ]; ``` The search results that come back are simply elasticsearch response elements serialized into an array. You can see [an example of a response](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-body.html)in the official elasticsearch documentation. #### Algolia [](#algolia-1) You can just pass a string to search the index: ``` SearchIndex::getResults('look for this'); ``` To perform more advanced queries an array may be passed. Read the [official documentation](https://github.com/algolia/algoliasearch-client-php#search) to learn what's possible. ### All other operations [](#all-other-operations) For all other operations you can get the underlying client: ``` SearchIndex::getClient(); // will return the Elasticsearch or Algolia client. ``` Query helpers ------------- [](#query-helpers) If you're using Algolia you can use a `SearchQuery`-object to perform searches. ``` use Spatie\SearchIndex\Query\Algolia\SearchIndex(); $searchQuery = new SearchQuery(); $searchQuery->searchFor('my query') ->withFacet('facetName', 'facetValue'); //a searchQuery object may be passed to the getResults-function directly. SearchIndex::getResults($searchQuery); ``` Tests ----- [](#tests) This package comes with a set of unit tests. Every time the package gets updated [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org) will automatically run them. You can also run them manually. You'll have first run `composer install --dev` to install phpspec. After that's out of the way you can run the tests with `vendor/bin/phpspec run`.
