Adding an OpenSearchServer Connection

This section explains how you can configure the connection for an OpenSearchServer installation.

This is how it works

  1. In the Start section, click Configuration.

  2. Under Enterprise search, select the entry Search provider.

  3. Click the cog icon in the group OpenSearchServer and select the entry OpenSearchServer connection.

  4. Click the plus character to add your OpenSearch installation.

  5. Enter a descriptive name.

  6. Specify a URL for an icon with which this connection should appear. Use the file extension .png or .jpg. Of course, you can also use the default URL.

  7. Enable the option Take user rights into account for display to check access to the document when displayed.

  8. Specify the base address for your OpenSearchServer installation. This installation usually accesses port 9090.

  9. If your OpenSearchServer installation is secured for user accesses, specify the access data (user name and API key) that has already been created.

  10. Choose the index for the connection.

You have successfully created the OpenSearchServer search provider. Enable the search provider in search provider management so your users can use the search provider.

You can deploy static content and access it via the enterprise search in a web-based format. For example, you can deploy your own image files or logos to customize the appearance according to your own needs.

This is how it works

  1. Open the installation directory of d.velop enterprise search. The path is usually:

    C:\d3\d.velop enterprise search

  2. Create a files subfolder. The path is usually as follows:

    C:\d3\d.velop enterprise search\files

  3. Store the desired files in the files subfolder.

You have now stored your files and made them accessible in a web-based format via d.velop enterprise search. The files can be called in the browser with the following path:

https://<Base address>/enterprisesearch/static/*

When you deploy a file Logo.png in the folder C:\d3\d.velop enterprise search\files , the logo can be accessed in the browser with the following call:

https://<Base address>/enterprisesearch/static/Logo.png
