You can use the cm:indexControl aspect to control the indexing of content in Alfresco Share. Using this aspect you can choose to disable repository-wide indexing. This can prove useful in certain situations, such as bulk loading.
The cm:indexControl aspect enables you to control indexing for the nodes to which it’s applied. The aspect exposes the following two properties:
- cm:isIndexed ((content + metadata)): This property controls whether or not the node is indexed.
- cm:isContentIndexed: This property controls whether or not the node content (binary) is indexed. Setting this to false inhibits full text indexing of the document binary.
The following table shows the possible combinations of settings along with the behavior for each case:
| cm:isIndexed | cm:isContentIndexed | Result |
|---|---|---|
| True | True | Metadata is indexed. Content is indexed. |
| True | False | Metadata is indexed. Content is not indexed. |
| False | True | No indexing at all. |
| False | False | No indexing at all. |
