Elasticsearch status
This page is really just a goal at an overview of where the Elasticsearch in Koha project stands. Anyone should feel free to edit or update
In general Elastic is functional in Koha - once setup and running you can search your catalog and access titles and indexes are updated as items/titles are added.
There are some differences/issues to be aware of, and in reality we need more users/testers to identify differences and so we can decide which are bugs and which should just be considered a feature of ES.
This page should be for the functionality, for installation/dependencies: Elasticsearch installation
Map to 18.05
Major bugs
Known issues
- Sorting options work only if sorting is enabled in the mappings - we currently ship a standard list of sorting options- this should be based on the mappings
- Autotruncate needs tuning
Bug 19580- Pushed to 17.05
- Authorities issues
Bug 19365- link_bibs_to_authorities.pl doesn't work with Elasticsearch - Pushed to 19.05Bug 19582- Elasticsearch: Auth-finder.pl must use search_auth_compat - Pushed to 17.11Bug 17373- Elasticsearch - Authority mappings for UNIMARC - Pushed to 17.11Bug 18825- Elasticsearch - Update default authority mappings - Puhsed to 18.05
- Default mappings must be set relatable to zebra
Bug 19575- Pushed to 18.11.04+
- Search keywords in general search aren't processed
- This maybe an advantage, 'not this' doesn't exclude the word 'this', this is a a change. These do work from the advanced search dropdown
- Searching for non-roman characters '食'
- Standardize return of records (sometimes we get MARC::Records and sometimes marcxml)
Bug 18822- Advanced editor - Rancor - searching broken under Elasticsearch - Pushed to 17.11
Enhancements
- Relevancy/weighting is different from Zebra - expected but should be customizable
Bug 18316- Pushed to 18.11
- Mapping configuration doesn't currently allow to add fields
- Bug 20388 - Elasticsearch - Ability to add search fields from UI - Patch does not apply
