README

This package is the Elasticsearch driver for Laravel Scout.

Installation

composer require rystlee/laravel-scout-elasticsearch

Setting up Elasticsearch configuration

You must have a Elasticsearch server up and running with the index you want to use created

If you need help with this please refer to the Elasticsearch documentation

After you've published the Laravel Scout package configuration:

// config/scout.php
// Set your driver to elasticsearch
    'driver' => env('SCOUT_DRIVER', 'elasticsearch'),

...
    'elasticsearch' => [
        'index' => env('ELASTICSEARCH_INDEX', 'laravel'),
        'hosts' => [
            env('ELASTICSEARCH_HOST', 'http://localhost'),
        ],
    ],
...

Highlight Usage

1. Use RystLee\LaravelScoutElastic\Traits\EsSearchable in the model that needs highlight search results. Then the collection results will contains highlight attribute which has highlight hits relevant to the scout setting toSearchableArray.
2. Foreach the highlight's results in your view like the following example:

    @if(isset($post->highlight['body']))
        @foreach($post->highlight['body'] as $item)
        ......{!! $item !!}......
        @endforeach
    @else
        {{ mb_substr($post->content, 0, 150) }}......
    @endif
   

Usage

Now you can use Laravel Scout as described in the [official documentation](https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/scout
