Not indexing / errors only on build about gatsby-plugin-algolia HOT 7 CLOSED

Actually misunderstood you and thought to hardcode in the config file. Tracked down function in the plugin and hardcoded them and got further than I have (as I actually saw it start to index in console) but then it threw an error.

Several errors and reconfiguring later I found it was primarily a casing issue. I was trying pass appID instead of appId.

Thanks for your patience and assistance! I was doing a whole bunch of other things wrong haha like using the example docs instead of pulling my data from frontmatter, as I'm just using markdown files.

Ok, so you have defined those variables in your .env file,
GATSBY_ALGOLIA_APP_ID and GATSBY_ALGOLIA_ADMIN_KEY, right?

Try hardcode them in the algoliasearch function.

Example:

algoliasearch('Y8WP8K7U3C', '91672f58492a3cd67dc5a386cc83c208')

Is a good idea to set your indexName anyway.

Im glad to know it!
But, particularly, I found very complicated the example they passed there https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/adding-search-with-algolia

I'm using another plugin, forked from this here, - Gatsby plugin algolia search
Found it better because it makes partial updates, only when a new post is added, or an existing post is updated or deleted. Different from this, which updates all the records on each update.

O wow yeah, the tutorial had several holes that I had to change that threw me off but I figured it was just me and being very inexperienced with search.

Thank you for pointing me to the other plugin that seems like it makes so much more sense considering the partial updates. I had read a little bit about a pull request on here to incorporate the partial updates and that seems like it should be a standard.

It seems that you has not defined the application ID provided by Algolia in your environment.
Did you follow these instructions:? Gatsby plugin Algolia

from gatsby-plugin-algolia.

Sorry, should have included gatsby-config setup:

...
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-algolia`,
      options: {
        appID: process.env.GATSBY_ALGOLIA_APP_ID,
        apiKey: process.env.GATSBY_ALGOLIA_ADMIN_KEY,
        queries,
        chunkSize: 10000, // default: 1000
      },
    },
...

I know environment variables are passing correctly, as I'm using for Google Maps API. Just for some reason Algolia credentials it's not being passed on build.

I just opened up an Algolia account today - dunno if that matters. I was also following tutorial from here: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/adding-search-with-algolia/

I noticed that the plugin has an option for indexName so I'll try to add that as well.

Yes, had a .env for development and production but no luck.

Good thought on hardcoding but this did not work for me either. I'll keep trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong, but it continues to suggest I'm not passing in the appID. Tried gatsby clean and deleting node modules to npm install again but also no luck. Algolia is picking up that it's getting pinged in the dashboard but nothing is being indexed.
