Extension:CirrusSearch

The CirrusSearch extension implements searching for MediaWiki using Elasticsearch. See Help:CirrusSearch for documentation.

Project goals

 * No weird dependencies that make this difficult to install
 * The only dependencies should be pure-PHP MediaWiki extensions and Elasticsearch itself
 * Provide a near-real-time search index for wiki pages that's extendable by other MediaWiki extensions
 * Provide all of the query options MWSearch has given users, and more

Dependencies

 * Elasticsearch
 * You will need to install Elasticsearch. Information on installing/maintaining Elasticsearch itself can be found at elasticsearch.org.


 * Extension:Elastica
 * Elastica is a PHP library to talk to Elasticsearch. Install this per instructions below
