Side-by-Side index using IndexDefinition

[Andreas Wimmer]

Hi

Since we have very dynamic indexes we're currently using the class IndexDefinition to create the indexes. I just upgraded to version 3 and wanted to use the new side-by-side indexes but discovered that the methods only support the AbstractIndexCreationTask.

Is there a way to create a side-by-side index using the IndexDefinition?

Thanks

Andy

Do you mean you are creating index using PutIndex(string name, IndexDefinition indexDef, bool overwrite) ?

Currently there side-by-side indexes can be created only with AbstactIndexCreation task.

Hi Michael

That's exactly what I meant. Thank you for creating an issue.

We'd appreciate very much if this was released very soon since we're currently struggling with long index rebuild times (customers with much and big documents) in our live environment and our own implementation of a side-by-side logic isn't working 100% perfect.

Can you estimate roughly when it'll be released?

Inherit from AbstractIndexCreationTask, override the CreateIndexDefinition method to return the relevant IndexDefiniton and then call the SideBySide call as usual

That's the idea I wanted to try if the DatabaseCommands method won't be released soon. I was hoping that it will do to override this method and the other properties (Indexes, Maps, etc.) are only used to create the index definition as a string.

Thanks for the confirmation that this approach will work.
