Default Search Models

info

All models under namespace Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\OpenSearch are deprecated and will be removed in version 2.0

Please use models from Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch instead.

Default search models can be used when individual search queries are needed to streamline the creation of Elasticsearch or OpenSearch search JSONs.

This is especially useful when you want to create your own search modifiers or when you would like to create services which should directly execute searches through the search client. They are used by the Generic Data Index and its search services internally to handle the execution of search queries on a lower level.

Example usage in search modifier

This example shows how to use a custom search modifier to add a term filter to the search query.

#[AsSearchModifierHandler]
public function handleCustomFilter(CustomFilter $customFilter, SearchModifierContextInterface $context): void
{
    $context->getSearch()->addQuery(
        new TermFilter(
            field: $customFilter->getField(),
            term: $customFilter->getValue(),
        )
    );
}

Search Model

The search model is the main model to create a search query. It can be used to add queries, filters, aggregations and sorting to the search.

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Search;

$search = (new Search())
    ->setSize(10) // set the number of results to return
    ->setFrom(0) // set the offset of the results
    ->setSource(['field']) // set the fields to return
    ->addSort(new FieldSort('field', 'asc')) // add a sort
    ->addQuery(new TermQuery('field', 'value')) // add a query
    ->addAggregation(new Aggregation('test-aggregation',[...])) // add an aggregation
;

$result = $searchClient->search( [
      'index' => $indexName,
      'body' => $search->toArray()
]);

Query Models

The query models are used to create a query for the search. They can be used to create any query which is supported by OpenSearch or Elasticsearch.

BoolQuery

Represents a boolean query. It can be used to combine multiple queries with boolean operators. See documentation for OpenSearch or Elasticsearch for more details.

Basic usage

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Query\BoolQuery;

$boolQuery = new BoolQuery([
    'should' => [
        ['term' => ['field' => 'value']],
        ['term' => ['field2' => 'value2']],
    ],
]);

Add additional conditions

$boolQuery = new BoolQuery();
$boolQuery->addCondition('must', [
    'term' => ['field' => 'value']
]);

Merge multiple queries

$boolQueryA = new BoolQuery([
    'should' => [
        ['term' => ['field' => 'value']],
    ],
]);

$boolQueryB = new BoolQuery([
    'should' => [
        ['term' => ['field' => 'value']],
    ],
]);

// this will result in a query with two "should" conditions
$boolQueryA->merge($boolQueryB);

Use other queries in sub queries

$boolQuery = new BoolQuery([
    'should' => [
        new TermFilter('field', 'value'),
        new TermFilter('field2', 'value2'),
    ]
]);

TermFilter

The term filter combines a boolean query with a term query. It can be used to filter the search results by a term.

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Query\TermFilter;
$termFilter = new TermFilter('field', 'value');

TermsFilter

The terms filter combines a boolean query with a terms query. It can be used to filter the search results by multiple term.

WildcardFilter

The wildcard filter combines a boolean query with a wildcard query. It can be used to filter the search results by terms using * as wildcard.

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Query\WildcardFilter;
$wildcardFilter = new WildcardFilter('field', 'value*');

It is possible to influence the wildcard filter behaviour by setting additional options. Take a look at the constructor of the WildcardFilter class for more details.

DateFilter

The date filter can be used to filter the search results by a date range or exact date.

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Query\DateFilter;

// date range
$dateFilter = new DateFilter('datefield', strtotime('2000-01-01'), strtotime('2099-12-31'));

// exact date
$dateFilter = new DateFilter('datefield', null, null, strtotime('2000-01-01'));

The date filter rounds the timestamps to full days by default. If you want to use exact timestamps, you can set the roundToDay option to false.

// exact timestamp
$dateFilter = new DateFilter('datefield', null, null, strtotime('2000-01-01 12:00:00'), false);

Generic Query

The generic Query model can be used to create any query which is supported by OpenSearch or Elasticsearch. It can be used to create custom queries which are not covered by the other query models.

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Query\Query;

$matchQuery = new Query('match', [
    'field' => 'value'
]);

$rangeQuery = new Query('range', [
    'field' => [
        'gte' => 10,
        'lte' => 20,
    ]
]);

Aggregation Model

The aggregation model is used to create an aggregation for the search. It can be used to create any aggregation which is supported by OpenSearch or Elasticsearch. It's just a simple wrapper class without any special logic.

use Pimcore\Bundle\GenericDataIndexBundle\Model\DefaultSearch\Aggregation\Aggregation;

$aggregation = new Aggregation('test-aggregation', [
    'terms' => [
        'field' => 'value',
    ],
]);
