eZ Platform Search extension
eZ Platform Search is an eZ Publish legacy extension that integrates eZ Platform search capabilities into eZ Publish legacy.
This extension is useful when you wish to run eZ Platform with legacy administration installed and you don't want to maintain two search indexes, one for eZ Platform and one for legacy.
This extension is aiming to support only legacy search with SearchViewHandling configuration
value set to default, thus it will not work if you directly used eZ Find (either in PHP or
templates).
After activating the extension, default legacy search features should continue to work as before including:
- Search in legacy administration interface
- Search in
ezobjectrelationlistattribute - Search in
ezxmltextembed object dialog - Reindexing when content is added/updated/deleted in legacy administration
Installation instructions
Install through Composer
Use Composer to install the extension:
composer require netgen/ezplatformsearch:^1.0
Activate extension
Activate the extension by using the admin interface ( Setup -> Extensions ) or by
prepending ezplatformsearch to ActiveExtensions[] in ezpublish_legacy/settings/override/site.ini.append.php:
[ExtensionSettings]
ActiveExtensions[]=ezplatformsearchRegenerate the legacy autoload array
Run the following from your installation root folder
php app/console ezpublish:legacy:script bin/php/ezpgenerateautoloads.php
Or go to Setup -> Extensions in admin interface and click the "Regenerate autoload arrays" button
Setup cronjobs
This extension ships with a cronjob to index subtrees of content that have had their visibility updated. The cron needs to be executed using the ezpublish:legacy:script runner.
php app/console ezpublish:legacy:script runcronjobs.php ezplatformindexsubtree
Searching for content instead of locations
By default, the plugin will search for locations.
If you want to use content search, switch the [SearchSettings]/UseLocationSearch config in ezplatformsearch.ini to false.
