Updating the index

When a resource is CRUD'd it must update the Search index:

Search.put(:study, attributes) # create, update
Search.rm(:study, id) # delete

If the resource has an attributes method you can pass the resource directly instead of a hash:

Search.put(:study, study) # create, update

In fact why not just pass the object and use its class as the namespace:

Search.put(study)

Searching

Search.get(:study, { 'organisation_id_in' => [12,16,72] }) # => [1,2,3]

Returns an array of ids.

To get a collection pass a repository object instead. The object must have a find method which accepts an array of ids.

Search.get(Study, { 'organisation_id_in' => [12,16,72] }) # => [Study(id: 1), Study(id: 2), Study(id: 3)]

Adapters

Internally the work is delegated to an adapter which wraps an indexer such as Elastic Search.
