Documentation submission: | Text to go in the release notes: |
A new configuration entry has been introduced in `koha-conf.xml` to control how many Elasticsearch update tasks the indexer processes per iteration.
Previously, the indexer defaulted to a batch size of 10. While the `koha-es-indexer` command supported overriding this with the `--batch_size` parameter, there was no way to set a different default value.
This change is particularly beneficial for large sites, where the indexer may otherwise struggle to keep pace with the update queue during peak activity.

Created attachment 187014 [details] [review] Bug 40890: Make batch_size configurable for koha-es-indexer This patch adds a new configuration entry in `koha-conf.xml` for making it possible to set a different `batch_size` for `koha-es-indexer`. The current implementation has a default of *10* that can be overridden using the CLI parameter `--batch_size N`. Unfortunately, if you restart the server or the service without passing the parameter, it will be set back to 10. This patch solves that by adding a new config entry and making the script use it. The passed CLI parameter will keep overridding the configured value. To test: 1. Run: $ ktd --shell k$ koha-es-indexer --restart --batch_size 100 kohadev k$ ps -ef | grep elastic => SUCCESS: No errors. Notice '100' is passed to the called perl script 2. Run: k$ koha-es-indexer --restart kohadev k$ ps -ef | grep elastic => FAIL: Notice '10' is the new value 3. Apply this patch 4. Run: k$ reset_all 5. Repeat 1 and 2 => SUCCESS: '100' is kept. 6. Try standalone `--start` too 7. Sign off :-D |
