Hibernate Search 8.4.0.Final is out

Posted by    |       Hibernate Search Lucene Elasticsearch Releases

Hibernate Search is a library that integrates Hibernate ORM with Apache Lucene or Elasticsearch by automatically indexing entities, enabling advanced search functionality: full-text, geospatial, aggregations and more. For more information, see Hibernate Search on hibernate.org.

We just published Hibernate Search 8.4.0.Final.

Compared to the previously released 8.4.0.CR1, this version is mostly identical, and only adds a few changes to adapt to the final release of Hibernate ORM 7.4.0.Final and improve the Hibernate Search ORM mapper integration.

What’s new

Dependency upgrades

Hibernate ORM (HSEARCH-5623)/(HSEARCH-5630)

Hibernate Search targets the Hibernate ORM 7.4 series.

Elasticsearch (HSEARCH-5620)/(HSEARCH-5625)

The Elasticsearch backend works with Elasticsearch 9.4, as well as other already compatible versions.

OpenSearch (HSEARCH-5606)

The Elasticsearch backend works with OpenSearch 3.6, as well as other already compatible versions.

Others

  • HSEARCH-5626: Upgrade to Elasticsearch client 9.4.1 (elasticsearch-rest-client)

  • HSEARCH-5624: Upgrade to Elasticsearch client 9.4.1 (elasticsearch-rest5-client)

  • HSEARCH-5599: Upgrade to Apache HTTP Core Client components 5.4.2

StatelessSession usage with indexed entities now throws an explicit exception

Hibernate Search now explicitly detects when listener-triggered indexing is used with a StatelessSession and throws an exception.

Previously, this scenario could lead to confusing errors.

If you need to use a StatelessSession to persist or update indexed entities, see the workarounds documented in the reference guide.

Other improvements and bug fixes

Please see the release notes for a complete list of changes since the previous releases.
