SearchPress
===========

![SearchPress](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/465154/116134994-887eff80-a69e-11eb-8e6a-cd7c51a9a5eb.png)

Elasticsearch integration for WordPress.

Release Information
-------------------

Each stable release gets tagged and you can [download releases from GitHub](https://github.com/alleyinteractive/searchpress/releases). `master` points to the latest stable release at any given time.

### Pre-Release Versions

Pre-release development happens against `release/` branches. Once a release is ready-to-ship, it is merged into `master` and tagged.

### Backwards Compatibility & Breaking Changes

We try to maintain backwards compatibility as much as possible. It's possible that releases will need to contain breaking changes from time to time, especially as Elasticsearch itself is a constantly changing product. Breaking changes will be detailed in release notes.

SearchPress has a thorough battery of unit and integration tests to help add compatibility with each new Elasticsearch release, without compromising compatibility with older releases.

Prerequisites
-------------

* [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/elasticsearch): 6.8+
* PHP: 7.4+
* WordPress: 5.9+

Setup
-----

1. Upload to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
3. You'll be prompted to add your Elasticsearch endpoint and to index your posts
* SearchPress provides a WP-CLI command for faster indexing on large sites
4. Once indexing is complete, you're good to go!

Indexing Post Meta
------------------

In early versions of SearchPress, SearchPress would index almost all post meta with the post. Starting in the 0.4 release, SearchPress only indexes the post meta that it is explicitly told to index. Further, it only indexes post meta in the _data types_ that a site's developer plans to use. The principal reason behind this change is performance, and to prevent ["mappings explosion"](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/mapping.html#mapping-limit-settings).

Data type casting will only be attempted for a key if the opt-in callback specifies that type for the key in question (see example below for the full list of possible types). However, the data type will still only be indexed if the type casting is successful. For example, attempting to index the meta value `"WordPress"` as a `long` would fail, since it is not a numeric value. This failure is silent, for better or worse, but type casting is overall quite forgiving.

If a meta key is allowed to be indexed, the meta value will _always_ be indexed as an unanalyzed string (`post_meta.*.raw`) and that type need not be specified. This is primarily for compatibility with [ES_WP_Query](https://github.com/alleyinteractive/es-wp-query), which depends on that key in `EXISTS` queries, among others.

### How to index post meta

```php
add_filter(
'sp_post_allowed_meta',
function( $allowed_meta ) {
// Tell SearchPress to index 'some_meta_key' post meta when encountered.
$allowed_meta['some_meta_key'] = [
'value', // Index as an analyzed string.
'boolean', // Index as a boolean value.
'long', // Index as a "long" (integer).
'double', // Index as a "double" (floating point number).
'date', // Index as a GMT date-only value in the format Y-m-d.
'datetime', // Index as a GMT datetime value in the format Y-m-d H:i:s.
'time', // Index as a GMT time-only value in the format H:i:s.
];
return $allowed_meta;
}
);
```
