Setup / Configuration

Add the following to the site configuration where you want to use meilisearch.

meilisearch:
  # URL to your meilisearch service.
  serviceUrl: http://localhost:7700
  # Search API Key. Please use a readonly key here!
  searchApiKey: '%env(MEILISEARCH_SEARCH_APIKEY)%'
  # Admin API Key. This key is used to index yur data.
  adminApiKey: '%env(MEILISEARCH_ADMIN_APIKEY)%'

How to index

This command will execute every indexer found by the system.

vendor/bin/typo3 meilisearch:index MY_SITE_IDENTIFIER

To also flush the index before indexing new run:

vendor/bin/typo3 meilisearch:index MY_SITE_IDENTIFIER -f

How to create your own indexer

Indexer are getting collected via DI tags. To increase the developer experience we have added a CompilerPass, so you do not have to register your indexer at all. You only have to make sure that your indexer is available as a service.

To create an indexer you can:

implement \PSVNEO\Meilisearch\Domain\Indexer\IndexerInterface or
extend from \PSVNEO\Meilisearch\Domain\Indexer\AbstractIndexer.

Create your own indexer using the interface

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Vendor\ExtensionName\Domain\Indexer;

use TYPO3\CMS\Core\Site\Entity\Site;

final class MyAwesomeIndexer implements IndexerInterface
{
    public function collectDocuments(Site $site): array
    {
        return [] // TODO Add logic to get my documents to index.
    }

    public function getIndexName(): string
    {
        return 'my_awesome_index'; // The name of the index in meilisearch.
    }

    public function getPrimaryKeyName(): string
    {
        return 'uid' // Or your custom identifier.
    }

    /**
     * @return array<non-empty-string>
     */
    public function getFilterableAttributes(): array
    {
        // Add all filterable fields of your documents here.
        return [
            'sysLanguageUid',
            'rootPageUid',
        ]
    }
}

We recommend you to extend from \PSVNEO\Meilisearch\Domain\Indexer\AbstractIndexer. This will provide your indexer with some TYPO3-Record basics and also gives you the method \PSVNEO\Meilisearch\Domain\Indexer\AbstractIndexer::getQueryBuilder to quickly start with your own database queries.

Create your own indexer extending the AbstractIndexer class

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Vendor\ExtensionName\Domain\Indexer;

use TYPO3\CMS\Core\Site\Entity\Site;

final class MyAwesomeIndexer extends AbstractIndexer
{
    public function collectDocuments(Site $site): array
    {
        return $this->getQueryBuilder()
            ->select('*')
            ->from('my_awesome_table')
            ->executeQuery()
            ->fetchAllAssociative();
    }

    public function getIndexName(): string
    {
        return 'my_awesome_index'; // The name of the index in meilisearch.
    }
}
