Search API Facet blocks should have the option to be excluded from Backdrop caching #7

Closed earlyburg closed 3 years ago

earlyburg commented 3 years ago

When search indices are updated frequently, such as a situation where inventory is displayed from a search index, we need to rebuild the ability to exclude facet blocks from Backdrops caching - otherwise front facing search result based facets will be out of sync with the index until a cache clear. Affects usability and user experience.

I have tested this with content generated with the Devel module. Unlike the D7 typical behavior of search facets when content is indexed, facets are automatically updated in Backdrop even if all caching is enabled by default. Closing this issue - works as expected. Many thanks to @docwilmot .
