Search

Made on Ibexa DXP Commerce 4.6.16 for Ibexa Summit 2025. No promises but it should work on Ibexa DXP Headless 4.6.12, and upper editions and/or versions.

Install

• Copy src/Search/ to your installation.
• Merge config/services.yaml with yours.
  • Service definitions run from # Index to the bottom of the file.
  • Adapt the list of search engines passed to the wrapping search engine according to your installation and test purposes.

  parameters:
    app.search.engine.wrapper.list: ['elasticsearch', 'solr', 'legacy']
  

• Change the enabled search engine to first_alive or less_capable. It probably means to change the value of the environment variable SEARCH_ENGINE. For more information, see https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/search/search_engines/elastic_search/install_elastic_search/ or https://doc.ibexa.co/en/latest/search/search_engines/solr_search_engine/install_solr/
  • For DDEV using a web environment variable, it can only be to replace SEARCH_ENGINE=[a-z_]+ pattern with, for example, SEARCH_ENGINE=first_alive in all .ddev/ directory's files, then restart DDEV with ddev restart. After restart, you can check the new value with ddev exec 'echo $SEARCH_ENGINE'.
• Reindex with ibexa:reindex command.
• Optionally copy and modify src/command/SearchCommand.php to have an app:search command to run some tests.
