* Search indexing now supports time limits to make the scheduled task run more neatly. In order for
|
|
|
|
|
this to work, search engine plugins will need to implement the 'stopat' parameter if they
|
|
|
|
|
override the add_documents() function, and return an extra parameter from this function (see base
|
|
|
|
|
class in engine.php). Unmodified plugins will still work, but without supporting time limits.

|
|
|
* Search areas should now implement the get_document_recordset function instead of the old
|
|
|
|
|
get_recordset_by_timestamp API (implement both if the area should work in older Moodle versions
|
|
|
|
|
as well). The new function is the same as the old one, but has an additional context parameter.
|
|
|
|
|
There is a helper function get_context_restriction_sql to make this easy to implement; see code
|
|
|
|
|
in base_activity.php for an example of how to implement this in your search area. (The
|
|
|
|
|
change was required to make search work after restoring sites. It also allows more flexible
|
|
|
|
|
reindexing in other cases.)
