Solr search views cache issue

Question

I have views for solr search result and I have highlight processor enabled. There seems to be cache issue effecting search result. Search results are rendered array of entities. For example: If I search 'content'. I see my result highlighting word 'content' correctly but when I search for result 'extraction', in the page with both words 'content' and 'extraction', it highlights 'content'. I used

\Drupal::service('page_cache_kill_switch')->trigger();

in views pre_render but didn't work as expected. Views advanced setting already has caching set to none.

Can anyone help me disabling cache for this particular view?

Thank you.

Answer 1

When you go to /admin/config/search/search-api and then click to edit your index, there is a checkbox for "Index items immediately" under the "Index Options" section. That is the only way I've found to get Solr Views to output new content immediately after it's created.

Answer 2

Issue was it was entity cache interfering with result. So, I ended up invalidating cache for entities when it is search result using hook_entity_view_alter. This might not be good idea but it fixes the problem. I am considering going with javascript approach to highlight so that I don't need to invalidate cache.

$build['#cache']['max-age'] = 0;
\Drupal::service('page_cache_kill_switch')->trigger();
