A plugin that integrates [WordPress](https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress) with [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/products/elasticsearch).

Aside from super fast full text search, this plugin will speed up post listings of any post type, including [WooCommerce](http://www.woothemes.com/woocommerce/) products.

The plugin works by indexing all posts and post meta data and redirecting the requests by WordPress from MySQL to Elasticsearch.

The plugin requires that you have Elasticsearch installed on your server.

WordPress Repository: https://wordpress.org/plugins/elasticsearch-indexer/

## Demo
 - [WooCommerce 10 000 products](http://enabled-1.es-demo.wallmanderco.se/)

## Installing the plugin from GitHub

 1. Unzip and put the new directory inside you plugins directory (`/wp-content/plugins/`) in wordpress.
 1. run `composer install` inside the new directory.
 1. [Install Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/_installing_elasticsearch.html) if you haven't already.
 1. Make sure that Elasticsearch is installed and running on your server  
(You can test this by running `curl -XGET -i 'http://127.0.0.1:9200'` in the command line)

## Installing Elasticsearch
Follow the instructions in the [Elasticsearch Docs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/_installing_elasticsearch.html).

Make sure that Elasticsearch is installed and running on your server by running `curl -XGET -i 'http://127.0.0.1:9200'` in the command line.

## Usage
The plugin requires no modification to work. Once you have put in your settings and run an initial reindex of the site the plugin will keep elasticsearch in sync with MySQL and redirect queries from MySQL to Elasticsearch. However the plugin comes with a few extra features and filters that you can use.

## Not supported
 - Sticky posts (ignores sticky posts. All wordpress queries will act as if `ignore_sticky_posts` is set to `true`)
 - Password protected posts (fallback to MySQL if used)
 - Random sorting (ignored)
