BatchController #

Available since 7.9.0

This class is an overload of the document controller and can be switched "as-is" in your code.

It allows to group API actions into batches to significantly increase performances.

The following methods will be executed by batch using m* actions:

  • create => mCreate
  • replace => mReplace
  • createOrReplace => mCreateOrReplace
  • update => mUpdate
  • get => mGet
  • exists => mGet
  • delete => mDelete

Standard API errors will not be available. Except for the services.storage.not_found error.

By default, the BatchController sends a batch of documents every 10ms. This can be configured when instantiating the BatchController through the options.interval constructor parameter.

Depending on your workload, you may want to increase the timer interval to execute bigger batches. A bigger interval will also mean more time between two batches and potentially degraded performances. The default value of 10ms offers a good balance between batch size and maximum delay between two batches and should be suitable for most situations.

Example:

import { BatchController, Kuzzle, Http } from 'kuzzle';

const sdk = new Kuzzle(new Http('localhost'));

const batch = new BatchController(sdk);

// Same as sdk.document.exists but executed in a batch
const exists = await batch.exists('city', 'galle', 'dana');

if (exists) {
  // Same as sdk.document.update but executed in a batch
  await batch.update('city', 'galle', 'dana', { power: 'off' });
}
else {
  // Same as sdk.document.create but executed in a batch
  await batch.create('city', 'galle', { power: 'off' }, 'dana');
}

// Original sdk.document.search method
const results = await batch.search('city', 'galle', {});
