This example illustrates basic search features of Searchly with Rails. Elasticsearch rails client is used for integration. Each crud operation is reflected to Searchly via model callbacks.

Please see development.rb and production.rb for Elasticsearch connection url settings.

elasticsearch_url = ENV['SEARCHBOX_URL'] || ENV['SEARCHLY_URL'] ||
      JSON.parse(ENV['VCAP_SERVICES']['searchly'][0]['credentials']['uri']) || 'http://site:xyz-searchly.com'

  Elasticsearch::Model.client = Elasticsearch::Client.new host: elasticsearch_url

rake db:migrate
rake db:seed

Recreate/Create index and import all data

   bundle exec rake environment elasticsearch:import:model CLASS='Restaurant' FORCE=y

Start rails console and execute below command to create index and mapping

Restaurant.__elasticsearch__.create_index! force: true

After index is created you can seed example data via;

   rake db:seed

which will insert sample restaurants to database as well as Elasticsearch.

You can also execute

Restaurant.import

at rails console.
