  1. Multi-index searches
  2. --------------------
  3. This module allows you to create search queries on multiple indexes that lie on
  4. the same server. The only thing you'll need is a search service class that
  5. supports the "search_api_multi" feature. Currently, only the "Solr search"
  6. supports this.
  7. Information for users
  8. ---------------------
  9. Enable the Search views (search_api_views) module along with this one to make
  10. instant use of the multi-index searching facilities. You'll get a new base table
  11. in Views for each server supporting the "search_api_multi" feature.
  12. You can then add filters, arguments, fields and sorts (although the last one
  13. might work rather poorly, depending on the sorted field and the implementation)
  14. from all enabled indexes on this server.
  15. - Issues
  16. If you find any bugs or shortcomings while using this module, please file an
  17. issue in the project's issue queue [1].

  19. Information for developers
  20. --------------------------
  21. If you are the developer of a SearchApiServiceInterface implementation and want
  22. to support searches on multiple indexes with your service class, too, you'll
  23. have to support the "search_api_multi" feature by implementing the
  24. SearchApiMultiServiceInterface interface documented in
  25. search_api_multi.service.inc.
