What is the mitigation or alternative method for the deprecated method for search() in SearchManager

[Shankar Murthy Pokala]

I have a Confluence plugin where I use SearchManager.search(searchResults.getNextPageSearch()), but this method is deprecated from v5.7.2 Confluence. Now my Confluence is upgraded to 6.13.4 and I am in search of alternative method for it. I read in the Confluence source code and I see a suggestion "This method on one hand is rarely used on the other hand is not efficient to implement in ES".

searchResults = searchManager.search(searchResults.getNextPageSearch());

Do we have any alternative method for this ?

Hello Shankar,

Thank you for contacting us! I just need some clarification here on what you are trying to do.

Is this an existing add-on from Marketplace, or are you creating one for Confluence Server? If so, you should know that this forum is for end-users, so you're not likely to see very many answers from developers on this forum. For help with developing for our products, have a look at the Atlassian Developer Community. There, you will be able to ask and answer questions with your developer peers.

Let me know if you have any trouble with that! 

Regards,

Shannon

Hello Shankar,

Thank you for confirming that! It would definitely be the right place then, I'm sure some of the Marketplace developers have run into similar situations so they will surely be able to assist you.

Take care, and have a pleasant week.

Shannon
