Interface SearchWorkspace


public interface SearchWorkspace
The entry point for explicit, large-scale index operations.

A SearchWorkspace targets a pre-defined set of indexed types (and their indexes), filtered to only affect a single tenant, if relevant.

While indexing listeners generally take care of indexing entities as they are persisted/deleted in the database, there are cases where massive operations must be applied to the index, such as completely purging the index. This is where the SearchWorkspace comes in.

  • Method Details

    • purge

      void purge()
      Delete all documents from indexes targeted by this workspace.

      With multi-tenancy enabled, only documents of the current tenant will be removed: the tenant that was targeted by the session from where this workspace originated.

    • purgeAsync

      CompletionStage<?> purgeAsync()
      Asynchronous version of purge(), returning as soon as the operation is queued.
      Returns:
      A CompletionStage reflecting the completion state of the operation.
      See Also:
    • purge

      void purge(Set<String> routingKeys)
      Delete documents from indexes targeted by this workspace that were indexed with any of the given routing keys.

      With multi-tenancy enabled, only documents of the current tenant will be removed: the tenant that was targeted by the session from where this workspace originated.

      Parameters:
      routingKeys - The set of routing keys. If non-empty, only documents that were indexed with these routing keys will be deleted. If empty, documents will be deleted regardless of their routing key.
    • purgeAsync

      CompletionStage<?> purgeAsync(Set<String> routingKeys)
      Asynchronous version of purge(Set), returning as soon as the operation is queued.
      Parameters:
      routingKeys - The set of routing keys.
      Returns:
      A CompletionStage reflecting the completion state of the operation.

    • flush

      void flush()
      Flush to disk the changes to indexes that were not committed yet. In the case of backends with a transaction log (Elasticsearch), also apply operations from the transaction log that were not applied yet.

      This is generally not useful as Hibernate Search commits changes automatically. Only to be used by experts fully aware of the implications.

      Note that some operations may still be waiting in a queue when flush() is called, in particular operations queued as part of processing an indexing plan before a transaction is committed. These operations will not be applied immediately just because a call to flush() is issued: the "flush" here is a very low-level operation handled by the backend.

    • flushAsync

      CompletionStage<?> flushAsync()
      Asynchronous version of flush(), returning as soon as the operation is queued.
      Returns:
      A CompletionStage reflecting the completion state of the operation.
      See Also:
    • refresh

      void refresh()
      Refresh the indexes so that all changes executed so far will be visible in search queries.

      This is generally not useful as indexes are refreshed automatically, either after every change (default for the Lucene backend) or periodically (default for the Elasticsearch backend, possible for the Lucene backend by setting a refresh interval). Only to be used by experts fully aware of the implications.

      Note that some operations may still be waiting in a queue when refresh() is called, in particular operations queued as part of processing an indexing plan before a transaction is committed. These operations will not be applied immediately just because a call to refresh() is issued: the "refresh" here is a very low-level operation handled by the backend.

    • refreshAsync

      CompletionStage<?> refreshAsync()
      Asynchronous version of refresh(), returning as soon as the operation is queued.
      Returns:
      A CompletionStage reflecting the completion state of the operation.
      See Also:
    • mergeSegments

      void mergeSegments()
      Merge all segments of the indexes targeted by this workspace into a single one.

      Note this operation may affect performance positively as well as negatively. See the reference documentation for more information.

    • mergeSegmentsAsync

      CompletionStage<?> mergeSegmentsAsync()
      Asynchronous version of mergeSegments(), returning as soon as the operation is queued.

      Note this operation may affect performance positively as well as negatively. See the reference documentation for more information.

      Returns:
      A CompletionStage reflecting the completion state of the operation.
