      Fulltext extracted from binaries can be stored in a blob provider instead of metadata in the repository by defining:

      nuxeo.vcs.fulltext.storedInBlob=true
      

      (Note that despite the vcs in the name, which is here for regularity with other properties, it also applies to DBS/MongoDB.)

      When doing so, by default a BlobProvider named fulltext will be used to store these blobs. When using a custom blob provider configuration instead of the default local filesystem storage, this fulltext blob provider must be defined accordingly. Usage of this specific blob provider is configured through a blob dispatcher in the default configuration, which may be overridden if needed.

      When defining additional repositories, fulltext blob storage will need to be enabled with XML in the repository contribution:

      <fulltext ... storedInBlob="true" ... />
      

      and a custom blob dispatcher configuration will be needed to take into account this repository.

      Note that when fulltext blob storage is enabled, repository-based fulltext search is automatically disabled (equivalent to nuxeo.vcs.fulltext.search.disabled=true or <fulltext ... searchDisabled="true" ... />).

      Description

      Fulltext extracted from the binaries is currently stored in the document itself as two text system properties. This is useful when we want to index them as a fulltext fields in the database itself, but this use case is increasingly irrelevant given that people use Elasticsearch.

      By storing the fulltext "offline" in a blob we could considerably reduce the size of the document, and still have the ability to access it when required by Elasticsearch for indexing.
