Proof of Concept for pluggable search provider and improved search capabilities in CKAN

Original discussion:

https://github.com/ckan/ckan/discussions/8444

This POC combines in a single extension code that should eventually live in different places:

• The plugin, index, cli, actions modules etc would eventually move to core
• The actual providers for Solr , Elasticsearch , etc would be separate extensions
• Search features like spatial search would live in their own relevant extension

Requirements

There are providers for Solr and Elasticsearch.

~~For Solr you can use the CKAN Docker images:~~

Temporarily,use this Docker image:

docker run --name ckan-solr -p 8983:8983 -d amercader/ckan-solr:2.11-solr9

For Elasticsearch:

docker run -d --name elasticsearch --net elastic -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node" elasticsearch:8.17.2

This will print the password for the elastic user. You also will need the CA certificates. Follow step 6 here to retrieve them:

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docker.html

Config options (may change):

ckan.plugins = search search_solr search_elasticsearch

ckan.search.search_provider = solr   # or elasticsearch

ckan.search.solr.url = http://127.0.0.1:8983/solr/ckan2

ckan.search.elasticsearch.url = https://localhost:9200
ckan.search.elasticsearch.password = test1234
ckan.search.elasticsearch.ca_certs_path = /path/to/http_ca.crt

Backlog

Note: these are meant in the context of the proof of concept, not as final implementations.

• [x] Basic providers for Solr and Elasticsearch implementing ISearchProvider
• [x] Minimal indexing for datasets
• [x] Minimal querying for datasets
