Hello everyone,

I think Simone has given a good summary of the problem. I don't have much more to say. I would however just like to clarify a technical point about https://github.com/OCA/search-engine and more specifically the module dedicated to Elasticsearch. This module has been developed based of versions of Elasticsearch licensed under Apache 2.0. This module uses a limited number of methods from the api provided by Elasticsearch to publish and synchronize data in the indexes. I have personally used it with the Opendistro distribution of ES and I am confident that it will work seamlessly with Opensearh (https://opensearch.org/) which is a fork of ES based on the latest version released under Apache 2.0. If this is not the case, it is very likely that the adaptations to be made will be minor. These are just a few technical considerations of no importance until the functional needs are clearly defined.

Regards,

lmi

Hello everyone,

guys, let's get back on track! I think none of these topics is relevant for Lorenzo. At least not at this stage.
Nobody is asking what's the final goal. Me included ;)

@Lorenzo: What are you looking for?

From my perspective:

a) if you need something pluggable in the backend, something that works w/ "normal" odoo models you should have a look at what Holger did. It's a bit complex and many implementation details should be rewritten completely but it gives you an idea on how to get there.

b) If you need something for the frontend, I'd definitely go for ES (especially if you want faceted search). Once you have ES in place you can use SearchKit JS to easily build a search UI.

c) If you don't want to maintain the search engine and you want a reliable and easy to use configuration you can use Algolia (yes, a proprietary servivce! :P)  but watch out because it can be very expensive.

Both b and c are feasible w/ the search-engine framework.

d) If you only need a full text index for one very particular model in one very particular form, I'd go for basic postgres full text indexing + some custom code.

HTH. If you need help on setting up the search engine stuff let me know ;)

Bests,

Holger of course you are right, 

but just hiding crap in a container doesn't make it significantly less
cumbersome at the detailed level. But of course if you have a nicely
built docker-compose oder kubernetes service defintion at hand much is
done anywhere else an you only have to handle ENV variables.
