The Search API module has a special cache tag that gets invalidated when when search index is updated. The invalidation is detected by Purge, but the tag does not end up in the purge queue. This tag can be used to invalidate views build on search index results.
To reproduce:
- Set up Search API with a server and one index. We use it in combination with Seach API Solr, but this is probably not relevant.
- Create a view based on a Search API index. Set the view caching to Search API tag based caching.
- Edit a node that is listed by the view, or create a new node that gets listed.
- Check that the Search API tag (format: search_api_list:{search index name}) is added/increased in the cachetags table.
- See that this tag is not added in the purge_queue table. The node_list tag is added.
Methods called when search_api_list tag is invalidated:
The methods called when other tags (e.g. node_list) are invalidated.
The reason that QueueService::commit is not called after Index::indexSpecificItems, is because both are executed during the service destruction phase. In \Drupal\Core\EventSubscriber\KernelDestructionSubscriber::onKernelTerminate the following services are due for desctruction in the given order. Note that search_api.post_request_indexing is called after purge.queue.
The service destruction itself has no priority per service. I tried increasing the purge module's weight to 10, but that did solve the destruction order, but still the tag is not added to the purge_queue table.
Also tried to change the pruge services destruct priority ({ name: needs_destruction, priority: -100 }) but without success. This seems to have no effect on the destruction order.
Initial destruction order (purge module weight = 0):
array (
0 => 'state',
1 => 'path.alias_whitelist',
2 => 'menu.active_trail',
3 => 'theme.registry',
4 => 'library.discovery.collector',
5 => 'block_content.uuid_lookup',
6 => 'string_translator.locale.lookup',
7 => 'purge.logger',
8 => 'purge.queue',
9 => 'purge.queue.stats',
10 => 'purge.purgers.tracker.runtime_measurement',
11 => 'search_api.post_request_indexing',
12 => 'drupal.proxy_original_service.router.builder',
