This addon provides the bases to implement addons to export information to Elasticsearch indexes.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Adds Elasticsearch as a search engine backend in Odoo, letting you configure the connection and manage indexes that are exported to an Elasticsearch server.
This module extends the search engine connector so that Elasticsearch can be used as the search backend. On the search backend form (the same screen used for other search engines), a new backend type "ElasticSearch" becomes available. When selected, extra fields appear to set the server host, authentication method (HTTP user/password or API key), SSL verification, timeout, maximum retries and whether to retry on timeout.
- The host is required for Elasticsearch backends.
- Authentication can be done with an HTTP user and password, or with an API key ID and API key.
- SSL certificate verification is on by default and should only be turned off in development.
- Timeout, retries and retry-on-timeout control how the connection behaves when the server is slow or fails.
For each index definition, if the backend is Elasticsearch, an index configuration is mandatory; otherwise Odoo raises a validation error. The module also provides the technical adapter that connects to Elasticsearch: it can test the connection, create the index and its alias, index records in bulk, delete records, clear an index, read all records, and perform a rolling reindex by creating a new index version, copying data, switching the alias and removing the old index. These operations are used by the search engine connector when exporting or synchronising data.
