REDAXO 5 AddOn Search it

Search it is a REDAXO 5 add-on for full-text search in the frontend.

Articles, media, files, PDF content and database fields are saved and evaluated in a DB table of the add-on. Search queries can also be stored in a cache table. This saves server computing power and results in search results being displayed more quickly.

System requirements

• PHP >= 7.0
• REDAXO >= 5.6
• pdftotext for searching PDF content, optional.

Plugins

• Statistik : Provides information about the Search it database and the most common search queries.
• Plaintext : Allows you to determine what is included in the index

Note: The Reindex and Search Highlighter plugins from RexSearch for REDAXO 4 have been integrated into Seach it. The Autocomplete plugin has also been integrated.

Where can I find further help?

Search it has an extensive documentation plugin in the backend, which also contains example modules for searching. Questions can also be asked in the REDAXO channel on Slack.

installation

The installation is done via the REDAXO installer, alternatively there is the latest beta version on GitHub.

Five database tables are created during installation:

• rex_tmp_search_it_index for indexing articles and DB columns
• rex_tmp_search_it_keywords for similarity search
• rex_tmp_search_it_cache and rex_tmp_search_it_cacheindex_ids for the search cache
• rex_tmp_search_it_stats_searchterms for statistics

The tables are not included in the database backup of the backup addon.

First steps

After installation, the settings should first be made and then the index should be completely generated.
