What's the best way to recreate Lucene index for HAPI JPA?

Hi all

Just wondering how to recreate the Lucene index for HAPI? It appears that after maven clean, the index is wiped since it is stored in the target/ folder.

Cheers

Hi Alvin,

Ah I've made this mistake before too. Always fun. :)

You can trigger a manual reindex of the entire database (resources and terminology server) by calling the following operation: 

http://[server_base]/$mark-all-resources-for-reindexing

This kicks off a process that might take a while depending on how big your database is. It's designed to reindex in small chunks in order to avoid hogging the server, so it goes for a while. Watch your server logs to see when it's done.

Cheers,

James

Ah Sweet James! I knew there must be something you guys use to do this. I have been trying to recreate it manually using the MassIndexer. Will give that URL a go.

Actually, is this reindexing the resources for look up or the full text search? I'm trying to rebuild the Full Text Search index.

Yeah, it should be. It also reindexes the database search tables and the terminology database so it's more than you need, but it should be regenerating Lucene indexes in the process.

Ah right! So basically it recreates the entity indexes in the database which in turn triggers the recreation of the Lucene indexes as it listens to Inserts and Updates. Sweet. Just what I need.
