Add --post-ids parameter to wp algolia reindex WP-CLI command
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm trying to reindex a specific post, or group of posts.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would love to be able to trigger a reindex based on a given post id, preferably multiple IDs
wp algolia reindex --ids=1,2,3,4,5
Which would also allow something like:
wp algolia reindex --ids=$(wp post list --post_type=event --format=ids)
Describe alternatives you've considered
wp algolia reindex --all but I've got a lot of content, so it's a very slow workaround.
Additional context It would also be helpful if I could specify a post type and have say, all "events" reindexed.
Definitely some valid ideas here, especially if you're very intentionally wanting to use the WP-CLI integration we have. For example based on your example, perhaps re-indexing just events on a cron schedule, but not worrying about other content types.
That said, manually updating the posts should be triggering a reindex individually for the item being edited, in case you just have a small handful that you want to get re-indexed.
Leaving this issue open for consideration of WP-CLI enhancements.
Yeah it’s just an annoying amount of posts sadly. E.g. 50, with WPML with each in 4 different languages. 200 posts right away!
Something needing considered here is that we allow for more than just indexing posts, we also allow for taxonomy/terms, and users. So any new flag to specify IDs will also need to have the content type for the IDs.

Also we'll want to evaluate which flags can't be used together, for example from what already exists: specifying a specific index + --all
Mm fair point. I'm wondering what the "usual" approach is for this scenario with other plugins?
Relevanssi has --post for a single post ID. Struggling to think of any other plugins right now that might cover posts and taxonomies in the same command.
Maybe --posts or --post-ids would be clear? (and --terms?)
Will most likely do --{$type}-ids=... but want to make sure all is good overall. I know for some "WP All Import" support, we added the ability with posts to specify IDs, which is part of what birthed the #458 ticket, getting things more in sync.
