Console commands

Create

Use Laravel Scout import command to create and update indices.

php artisan scout:import <model>

For example, if your model is "App\Models\Post" then command would be like this:

php artisan scout:import "App\Models\Post"

If you want to recreate an index, first make sure it's deleted and then create it. Follow up with a scout import to refill the index as well.

Update Aliased Indexes

If you are using Aliased Indexes, you should use this command instead of scout:import

php artisan elastic:update <index?>

You can specify an index or choose to omit it and the command will update all your indexes. For example, if your model is "App\Model\Post" and the index is "posts":

php artisan elastic:update posts

Delete

php artisan scout:delete-index <model>

Use Laravel Scount delete-index command to delete the indices.

Search

php artisan elastic:search <model> <term> --fields=<fields>

Rudimentary command to test a basic search query.
