Unscope the search_import scope in-case I'm indexing some attrs,

[wahabmangat]

First Done Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I have a search_import scope like

  scope :search_import, -> { includes(:apps) }

I don't want to eager_load the apps when I'm only indexing let's say the domain name (FYI: domain has_many apps). How to unscope it

here's my search_data method

def search_data
  {
   apps_name: apps.map(&:name)
  }.merge(only_name)
end
def only_name
  {
    name: name
  }
end

Describe the solution you'd like

Domain.unscope(:search_import).reindex(:only_name)

I faced similar situation and in my case, I am performing partial reindex on prices columns and for that It eager loads all the association which is defined in search_import scope and it fires unnecessary queries. Since we really can't avoid it right now I find a way to do it.

Searchkick.indexer.queue(YourDbRecords.map do |r| 
    Searchkick::RecordData.new(YourModel.searchkick_index, r).update_data(partial_data_method_name)
  end
)

Reference: https://github.com/ankane/searchkick/blob/master/lib/searchkick/index.rb#L167 Note: This code will skip ActiveSupport::Notifications publish event.

@ankane - We can easily implement this by introducing new flag on configuration level or we can also introduce new method for this. And I am happy to raise PR for this.

This is valid case because I am performing partial data reindexing on lots of data and that too frequently and I can't use Searchkick bulk callback option since I am not updating records individually(it's happening in batches and happens on direct DB level).
