Direct API access

How to access the API client directly using Algolia SearchBundle.

In some cases, you might want to access the Algolia client directly to perform advanced operations, like managing API keys and managing indices.

By default, the Algolia\AlgoliaSearch\SearchClient is public in the Symfony container. To be able to use it, you only have to inject or retrieve it with the search.client key.

For example:

PHP

class TestController extends AbstractController
{
    /**
     * @param SearchClient $client
     * @return JsonResponse
     */
    public function listApiKeysAction(SearchClient $client): JsonResponse
    {
        return new JsonResponse($client->listApiKeys());
    }
}
