We recommend setting up a cron job for the Elasticsearch task that periodically re-initializes the database.
The task responsible for this can be called as follows:
./vimp elasticsearch:index
Important note:
In VIMP versions lower than 6.x, please use the command ./symfony instead of ./vimp in the code above.
It supports the following parameters:
--verbose
Enables the detailed output.
--housekeeping
Performs cleanup of orphaned data within Elasticsearch only (i.e., data that is no longer in VIMP but still exists in Elasticsearch).
--reindex
Initializes the indexes within the Elasticsearch instance (new) by deleting the old indexes and creating new ones.
Via a cron job the task can be called e.g. like this:
0 4 * * * php -f /path/to/vimp/vimp -- elasticsearch:index >> /path/to/vimp/log/elasticsearch-indexing.log 2>&1
Important note:
In VIMP versions lower than 6.x, please use the command /symfony instead of /vimp in the code above.
