Elasticsearch

@andreasdueren said in Elasticsearch:
Great! Thanks for taking the initiative.
The .env file or a template is missing in the source, therefore the package.sh file fails to copy and build.
elasticsearch.yaml needs to be added to the copy command in package.sh, too
and the command "cloudron package" needs to be "cloudron build" ?
And you should use Cloudron Base Image 5.0.0 instead of 4.0.0
It is up and running now on my Cloudron and I still need to connect it with my Nextcloud.
I noticed that the Cloudron Proxy is exposing Elasticsearch (protected by username and password from credentials.txt)
It was a bit tricky to understand where to use the curl to create the indices. Best was to execute it inside of the container (IPADDRESS 127.0.0.1)

I did that in the nextcloud apps terminal since I also set up the configuration there. But yes maybe good to clarify in the docs.

I think I configured NextCloud the right way, but I still get no results when doing search. In the Logs of the elasticsearch container doesn't happen much. Does it need some time to start building the index?
@Kubernetes You need to manually start the index with
occ fulltextsearch:indexyou might want to test the configuration withocc fulltextsearch:testfirst -

Maybe to add that a cronjob in NextCloud App is recommended to update the index, e.g.
*/15 * * * * occ fulltextsearch:index --quiet@Kubernetes Recommended is
occ fulltextsearch:liveas per the docs -

@Joseph I thought @service was different and there was another one. But maybe I'm wrong.
-
@andreasdueren maybe
@reboot? https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/#cron I would have preferred if it was called oneoff or startup

@girish what do you need to make this gem a official package?
@Kubernetes I don't think it's wanted because they'd prefer to make it an add-on not as an app.
-
When i look at the time this thread is open I wonder if it could be an interims solution until the add-on is ready
-
Why not build it locally and deploy it?
(I wonder if the reluctance of deploying non-appstore comes from the difficulty of building an app or because it's seen as dangerous/unstable?)
@joseph 1) This approach is seperate to the common Cloudron usage
2) Updates are not automatically, but manually
3) Not everybody is able to build and install custom packages
4) It requires public space on docker.hub or a private instance of docker repo
5) the package is not optimized by the Cloudron maintainers

@Nicolas Indeed, current plan is to implement Elastic search as an addon and not as an app. This will help apps like Nextcloud etc have document search as well. I will move this port to Feature Requests since it's a platform level change.
If you want to use this right away, there are two approaches:
- use an external elastic search (i.e install it on a separate server and have the LAMP app access that)
- alternately, create a cloudron package and install elastic search as an app. You can install this package on
elastic.domain.comand then your app can use it directly.
@girish Perhaps the Nextcloud Talk High Performance Backend as well as the Elasticsearch could be installed together onto the same server, somehow.
There is also Manticore:
