Issue in integrating php-redisearch with laravel 8

Question

I have installed the plugin MacFJA/php-redisearch using the following command

composer require macfja/redisearch

Issue:

Complete code:

<?php

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redis;
use DateTime;
use FKRediSearch\RediSearch\Setup;
use MacFJA\RediSearch\Redis\Client\ClientFacade;

class CommandName extends Command
{
    protected $signature = 'command:commandName';
    protected $description = 'Command description';
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
    }
    public function handle()
    {
        $clientFacade = new ClientFacade();
    }
}

Can someone share why the issue is thrown?

Please share more details, like the code involved. The current snippet does not include the autoloader — Nico Haase, Nov 03 '21 at 06:03
Which version of that package did you install? `MacFJA\RediSearch\Redis\Client\ClientFacade` is not part of the latest stable release yet — Nico Haase, Nov 03 '21 at 06:29
Suitable for what? Why not simply wait for a stable release of that package? — Nico Haase, Nov 03 '21 at 07:27
So, how could I help you with that? Why not ask the maintainers of that project to release a proper version? In the meantime, why not use the code as it is currently published? — Nico Haase, Nov 03 '21 at 12:54

As @NicoHaase said (and here also), MacFJA\RediSearch\Redis\Client\ClientFacade is not available in versions 1.x, and as for now, the version installed by Composer is the version 1.4.0.

The next version (that will be 2.0.0) is not ready yet, but is not far away. It's this version that have the class MacFJA\RediSearch\Redis\Client\ClientFacade.

But the version 1.4.0 can be used in Laravel as well.

The documentation is here: https://github.com/MacFJA/php-redisearch/tree/1.4.0#readme

But to summarize it should be something like:

<?php

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redis;
use DateTime;
use Predis\Client;
use MacFJA\RediSearch\Search;

class CommandName extends Command
{
    protected $signature = 'command:commandName';
    protected $description = 'Command description';
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
    }
    public function handle()
    {
        $client = new Client(['scheme' => 'tcp', 'host' => 'localhost', 'port' => '6379', 'db' => 0]);
        $search = new Search($client);

        $results = $search
            ->withIndex('person')
            ->withQuery('Doe')
            ->withHighlight(['lastname'])
            ->withScores()
            ->search();
        // Do something with $result
    }
}

You can also look at this lib: macfja/redisearch-integration. Its goal is to reduce a part of the boilerplate and add PHP object mapping (like Doctrine ORM)
