How to index only live versions of pages?

[barrykeenan]

Hi Andrew,

In the docs you show how to filter:

$index->index([
    Page::class => [
        'ClassName:not' => ErrorPage::class,
    ],
    File::class => [
        'ClassName:not' => Folder::class,
    ],
]);

How would I filter to only get live versions of pages? Similar to:

$live_pages = Versioned::get_by_stage(Page::class, Versioned::LIVE);

Many thanks,
Barry

Hi Barry You should only push pages to the elastic search index once they are published / live. So you don’t need to filter the live pages in ES. Instead, use the removeRecord() in the onAdterUnpublish() or archive to make sure the ES index is always in sync with only live pages. Hope it helps Best, Sylvain

Hi Sylvain!

I was thinking more from the point of view of a SilverStripe task to re-index the whole site. Since draft pages are returned by default I was ending up with urls in my index with a ?stage=Stage suffix, which I don't want.

In my case I changed PrimitiveDataObjectFactory to use Versioned and PrimitiveDataObject->getLink() to just return source->Link() rather than re-querying SiteTree (which would get the draft url again)

I wonder if this would be a useful option for others?

Hi @barrykeenan - For posterity, another approach is using Versioned::set_stage(Versioned::LIVE); before indexing. This ensures only live/published records are used (mimics viewing from a live context). This approach is useful when you have related objects included in the index which are also versioned (images, content blocks etc.).
