# Algolia Magento 2 | ||
# Implementing Advanced Search with Algolia in GraphCommerce | ||
|
||
An implementation of Algolia through the GraphQL Mesh. | ||
The need for fast, relevant, and personalized search experiences has become | ||
paramount. GraphCommerce, This integration offers developers a robust solution | ||
to enhance search capabilities while maintaining the flexibility and performance | ||
that GraphCommerce is known for. | ||
|
||
## Prerequisites | ||
In this article, we'll dive deep into the technical aspects of implementing | ||
Algolia in GraphCommerce, exploring the architecture, key components, and best | ||
practices for leveraging this powerful integration. | ||
|
||
Make sure the Magento 2 module is correctly installed and working. | ||
The Algolia integration in GraphCommerce is designed with a clear separation | ||
between the GraphQL layer and the frontend implementation. This architecture | ||
allows for seamless integration with existing GraphCommerce setups while | ||
providing the flexibility to customize and extend functionality as needed. | ||
|
||
## Installation | ||
The is composed of five packages: | ||
|
||
1. Find current version of your `@graphcommerce/next-ui` in your package.json. | ||
2. `yarn add @graphcommerce/[email protected]` (replace 9.0.0 with the | ||
version of the step above) | ||
3. Configure the following ([configuration values](./Config.graphqls)) in your | ||
graphcommerce.config.js: | ||
- `@graphcommerce/algolia-products` | ||
- `@graphcommerce/algolia-categories` | ||
- `@graphcommerce/algolia-insights` | ||
- `@graphcommerce/algolia-personalization` | ||
- `@graphcommerce/algolia-recommend` | ||
|
||
```js | ||
const config = { | ||
algolia: { | ||
applicationId: 'your-algolia-application-id', // Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Credentials and Basic Setup > Application ID | ||
indexNamePrefix: 'default_', // Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Credentials and Basic Setup > Index name prefix | ||
searchOnlyApiKey: 'blabla', // Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Credentials and Basic Setup > Search-only (public) API key | ||
catalogEnabled: false, // start with search and if everything works as expected, you can move on to the catalog. | ||
}, | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
## Installation and configuration of Algolia for GraphCommerce | ||
|
||
### Configuration | ||
### Preparation | ||
|
||
To integrate Magento's product catalog with GraphCommerce, you need to set up | ||
your Algolia indexes. This is typically done using the Magento 2 Algolia module, | ||
which handles the synchronization of product and category data. | ||
|
||
1. Setup the fields that you want to index in algolia | ||
`Stores > configuration > Algolia Search > Products > Products` | ||

4. To configure sorting options, enable Virtual Replica's. | ||
`Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Instant Search Results Page > Use Virtual Replica` | ||
|
||
### @graphcommerce/algolia-products | ||
|
||
After this package is installed and configured the search is automatically | ||
replaced by Algolia's search. | ||
|
||
This package is responsible for integrating Algolia's search functionality into | ||
GraphCommerce's GraphQL layer. It includes several key components: | ||
|
||
- **Search Result Mapping**: Converts Algolia search hits to Magento-compatible | ||
product objects. | ||
- **Facet Handling**: Transforms Algolia facets into Magento-style aggregations | ||
for consistent filtering. | ||
- **Query Input Preparation**: Prepares search inputs to align with Algolia's | ||
query structure. | ||
|
||
Find current version of your `@graphcommerce/next-ui` in your package.json. And | ||
run `yarn add @graphcommerce/[email protected]` (replace 9.0.0 with the | ||
same version as the `@graphcommerce/next-ui`) | ||
|
||
To enable Algolia in your GraphCommerce project, you'll need to add the | ||
necessary configuration to your `graphcommerce.config.js` file: | ||
|
||
```ts | ||
module.exports = { | ||
// Other configuration... | ||
algolia: { | ||
// Configure your Algolia application ID. | ||
// Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Credentials and Basic Setup > Application ID | ||
applicationId: 'SAME_AS_MAGENTO', | ||
|
||
// Configure your Algolia Search Only API Key. | ||
// Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Credentials and Basic Setup > Search-only (public) API key | ||
searchOnlyApiKey: 'SAME_AS_MAGENTO', | ||
|
||
// Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Credentials and Basic Setup > Index name prefix | ||
indexNamePrefix: 'SAME_AS_MAGENTO', | ||
|
||
// By default the catalog will not use algolia. Set this to true to enable Algolia for the catalog. | ||
catalogEnabled: true, | ||
|
||
// Enable Algolia customer group pricing. | ||
// Please be aware that personalization needs to be enabled as well to make this work. | ||
customerGroupPricingEnabled: true, | ||
}, | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
When writing your own product queries, you can set the engine to `algolia` to | ||
use Algolia's search. | ||
|
||
```graphql | ||
query AlgoliaProducts { | ||
products(filter: { engine: { eq: "algolia" } }) { | ||
items { | ||
name | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
See the | ||
[algoliaHitToMagentoProduct](https://github.com/graphcommerce-org/graphcommerce/blob/main/packages/algolia-products/mesh/algoliaHitToMagentoProduct.ts) | ||
for all the fields that are returned. | ||
|
||
### @graphcommerce/algolia-categories | ||
|
||
This package is responsible for integrating Algolia's category search | ||
functionality into GraphCommerce's GraphQL layer. | ||
|
||
We currenly do not support replacing the whole category tree with Algolia's | ||
categories, because only a reduced set of fields are indexed to algolia. | ||
|
||
When writing your own category queries, you can set the engine to `algolia` to | ||
use Algolia's search. | ||
|
||
```graphql | ||
query AlgoliaCategories { | ||
categories(filters: { engine: { eq: "algolia" } }) { | ||
items { | ||
name | ||
breadcrumbs { | ||
category_name | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
See the | ||
[algoliaHitToMagentoCategory](https://github.com/graphcommerce-org/graphcommerce/blob/main/packages/algolia-categories/mesh/algoliaHitToMagentoCategory.ts) | ||
for all the fields that are returned. | ||
|
||
### @graphcommerce/algolia-insights | ||
|
||
This package implements Algolia's insights features, which are used to track | ||
user interactions and improve search relevance. These events are crucial for | ||
enabling features like NeuralSearch, Dynamic Re-Ranking, Query Categorization, | ||
Analytics, A/B Testing, Recommend, and Personalization. | ||
|
||
1. When installed the feature is automatically enabled. | ||
2. Browse the site and verify that events are being logged in the Algolia | ||
dashboard. You can check this in the Event Debugger: | ||
`Data Sources > Events > Debugger`. | ||
|
||
The events as described in | ||
[Algolia's event types page](https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/sending-events/concepts/event-types) | ||
are sent to Algolia from the codebase. | ||
|
||
The event flow implemented is as follows: | ||
|
||
1. When a user sees a product on the screen (IntersectionObserver) the | ||
`viewedObjectIDs`/`viewedObjectIDsAfterSearch` is send. | ||
2. When a user views a list of products the `viewedFilters`/`clickedFilters` are | ||
send. | ||
3. When a user clicks on a product the | ||
`clickedObjectIDs`/`clickedObjectIDsAfterSearch` is send. | ||
4. When a user adds a product to the cart the | ||
`addedToCartObjectIDs`/`addedToCartObjectIDsAfterSearch` is send. We | ||
automatically track where each item in the cart originated form. We track | ||
every item in the cart and match them to the original query that was used to | ||
find them. | ||
5. When a user purchases a product the | ||
`purchasedObjectIDs`/`purchasedObjectIDsAfterSearch` is send. We | ||
automatically track where each item in the purchase originated form. We track | ||
every item in the purchase and match them to the original query that was used | ||
to find them. | ||
|
||
Note: The `convertedObjectIds`/`convertedObjectIDsAfterSearch` are not | ||
implemented, they are a simplified version of the | ||
`addedToCartObjectIDs`/`addedToCartObjectIDsAfterSearch` | ||
|
||
The `useSendAlgoliaEvent` hook in `@graphcommerce/algolia-insights` is | ||
responsible for sending these events to Algolia. | ||
|
||
### @graphcommerce/algolia-personalization | ||
|
||
This package requires insights to be sent to Algolia for them to be able to | ||
create personalized queries. Once you've collected several events, set up | ||
personalization strategies in the Algolia dashboard under | ||
`Enhance > Personalization`. | ||
|
||
This package implements Algolia's personalization features, including: | ||
Personalized search results and User token management for consistent | ||
identification | ||
|
||
Note: This package is optional because this will increase the amount of API | ||
calls send to Algolia which can increase your costs when viewing lists of | ||
products that otherwise are static like related products, category queries etc. | ||
|
||
### @graphcommerce/algolia-recommend | ||
|
||
This package requires insights to be sent to Algolia for them to be able to | ||
create recommendations. Once you've collected several events, set up | ||
recommendation strategies in the Algolia dashboard under `Recommend > Models`. | ||
|
||
This package implements Algolia's recommendation features, including: | ||
|
||
- Related products | ||
- Frequently bought together | ||
- Similar looking items | ||
|
||
The recommend package can replace various sections of Magento's default fields. | ||
So this can be a drop-in replacement. You can configure which fields to replace | ||
by updating your `graphcommerce.config.js`: | ||
|
||
```ts | ||
module.exports = { | ||
algolia: { | ||
lookingSimilar: 'UPSELL_PRODUCTS', | ||
frequentlyBoughtTogether: 'CROSSSELL_PRODUCTS', | ||
relatedProducts: 'RELATED_PRODUCTS', | ||
}, | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Besides this the features are also available as separate fields on products: | ||
|
||
```graphql | ||
query AlgoliaProducts { | ||
products(filter: { engine: { eq: "algolia" } }) { | ||
items { | ||
name | ||
algolia_looking_similar { | ||
name | ||
} | ||
algolia_related_products { | ||
name | ||
} | ||
algolia_frequently_bought_together { | ||
name | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Multi-store and Multi-language Support | ||
|
||
The Algolia integration in GraphCommerce supports multi-store and multi-language | ||
setups out of the box. It uses the indexes created by the Magento 2 Algolia | ||
module. | ||
|
||
## Additional Configuration | ||
|
||
### Sorting Options | ||
|
||
To configure sorting options for your Algolia-powered search, you need to enable | ||
Virtual Replicas in your Magento 2 Algolia module configuration: | ||
|
||
1. Navigate to | ||
`Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Instant Search Results Page` | ||
2. Enable the "Use Virtual Replica" option | ||
|
||
This allows you to define different sorting options, each of which will be | ||
treated as a separate (virtual) index in Algolia. | ||
|
||
### Customer Group Pricing | ||
|
||
To enable customer group pricing, make sure customers groups prices are mapped | ||
to algolia. | ||
`Stores > Configuration > Algolia Search > Advanced > Enable Customer Groups`. | ||
|
||
⚠️ Warning: Catalog price rules for a specific customer group do not seem to be | ||
indexed.It seems only: `[Product] > Advanced Pricing > Customer Group Price` | ||
gets indexed. | ||
|
||
Note: The GraphQL API does not expose the customer group_id by default. We're | ||
doing an additional REST API call to get the value. This means a somewhat slower | ||
(few hundred ms) when the Customer is loaded. | ||
|
||
### Customization | ||
|
||
Customise the code by creating plugins on the functions you want to adjust | ||
By default `algoliaFacetsToAggregations` and `algoliaHitToMagentoProduct` are | ||
split into it's own functions so plugins can be easily written. | ||
|
||
## Conclusion | ||
|
||
The Algolia integration in GraphCommerce offers a powerful toolset for | ||
implementing advanced search and discovery features in your e-commerce | ||
application. By leveraging the separation of concerns between the GraphQL layer | ||
and frontend implementation, you can create a flexible, performant, and | ||
feature-rich search experience. | ||
|
||
As you implement and customize the Algolia integration, remember to focus on | ||
performance, user experience, and data privacy. Regularly analyze search | ||
analytics and user behavior to continually refine and improve your search | ||
implementation. | ||
|
||
## Algolia for Catalog | ||
For more information and detailed documentation, visit the GraphCommerce GitHub | ||
repository and Algolia's developer documentation. Happy coding! | ||
|
||
Sorting is defined by Algolia and can not be configured per category as each | ||
sorting option is a separate (virtual) index. | ||
