Novicell.Examine.ElasticSearch for Umbraco 11?

[mcl-sz]

Hi @bielu,

We are happy and fanatical users of Novicell.Examine.ElasticSearch! We plan to upgrade Umbraco 8 projects to Umbraco 11 in the coming months. Are there any plans to release an Umbraco 11 version of Novicell.Examine.ElasticSearch?

[bielu]

Hi @mcl-sz, there is no plan for a migration package to Umbraco 11 for now.

@mcl-sz I am working on new abstractions for Umbraco to let attach any search client to Umbraco, which makes this package redundant. I will be sharing new search provider around release Umbraco 13!

Another reason to be excited for Umbraco 13 @ :)

Hi @bielu ,

Now that Umbraco 13 has been released, we really looking forward to your ElasticSearch implementation!
If we need to test, please let us know!

Hey @mcl-sz,
as Umbraco decided not to follow with changes for v13, I might or might not implement version for v13, as maintaing examine providers is not easy and takes a lot of time. If I will decide to prepare it, it will follow only LTS releases, as umbraco is likely to introduce breaking changes in examine in v14, 15 etc. :)

@mcl-sz I started preparing version for umbraco 13, you track progress in this repo:

Hi @bielu , that is very good news! I l keep an eye on it. If there is anything I can test, please let me know!

[mcl-sz]

Hi @bielu I certainly don't want to rush you of course, but have you been able to make any progress for ElasticSearch in Umbraco 13? If there is anything I can help you with or test, please let me know. We're looking forward to it!

[bielu]

@mcl-sz I was investigating it, there were some issues with v13, so was blocked till 13.1 I will have a look into it now, but yeah Examinex had issues as well with it :)

[bielu]

@mcl-sz I made now issue to track progress, as you can see I am quite far from releasing first alpha, but yes I did progress, you can track it here, and if you want test it with source code feel free :)
