+ * Defines an optional interface for SearchPlugin objects using an index.
+ *
+ * Plugins implementing this interface will have these methods invoked during
+ * search_cron() and via the search module administration form. Plugins not
+ * implementing this interface are assumed to be using their own methods for
+ * searching, not involving separate index tables.
+ *
+ * The user interface for managing search pages displays the indexing status for
+ * search pages implementing this interface. It also allows users to configure
+ * default settings for indexing, and refers to the "default search index". If
+ * your search page plugin uses its own indexing mechanism instead of the
+ * default search index, or overrides the default indexing settings, you should
+ * make this clear on the settings page or other documentation for your plugin.
+ *
+ * Multiple search pages can be created for each search plugin, so you will need
+ * to choose whether these search pages should share an index (in which case
+ * they must not use any search page-specific configuration while indexing) or
+ * they will have separate indexes (which will use additional server resources).

+   * (admin/config/search/pages). It allows your module to add items to the
+   * built-in search index using search_index(), or to add them to your module's
+   * own indexing mechanism.
+   *
+   * When implementing this method, your module should index content items that
+   * were modified or added since the last run. There is a time limit for cron,
+   * so it is advisable to limit how many items you index per run using
+   * config('search.settings')->get('index.cron_limit') or with your own
+   * setting. And since the cron run could time out and abort in the middle of
+   * your run, you should update any needed internal bookkeeping on when items
+   * have last been indexed as you go rather than waiting to the end of
+   * indexing.
