Per indices configuration

[Nuranto]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, many indices configurations (shard qty, replicas qty, batch_indexing_size) are managed globally. It would be great to have the possibility to configure each indexes separatly.

For example we may not want as many shards for category index and product index. Or if we need to add a custom indice that manage millions of small records, we may want to increase batch_indexing_size. etc..

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

I see two solution :

1. Managed in system.xml with a Magento\Config\Block\System\Config\Form\Field\FieldArray\AbstractFieldArray field
2. Managed in elasticsuite_indices.xml (and elasticsuite_indices.xsd) via extra attributes or nodes. (Probably easier and safer and fits most of the cases)

Hi @Nuranto

That could be interesting. However, 99% of merchants don't need more than 1 shard, even for product indices.

You should consider using 2 shards when your index is greater than dozens of Gbs.

So for me this is really low priority actually.

Hi, we indeed created another huge index. So, yes, I understand this is low priority.
