Document Distributed Search (RSCoordinator) build/installation

[svabra]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It is undocumented/falsely documented on how to make/build the the oss-module.so for distributed search (resp. secondary index sync). https://github.com/RediSearch/RediSearch/tree/master/coord
e.g. the configure.py file simply does not exists.

There is multiple users or RedisCluster, which have issues with it. e.g. bitnami/charts#21597

Describe the solution you'd like
Update the documentation in the README.md on how to build the distributed search into a lib (i.e. oss-module.so) (I have already asked the redis-stack team to include the oss-module.so and depending libs in their container images).

Describe alternatives you've considered
No Alternatives.

@svabra good news. I fixed everything and I will be posting the solution tomorrow. I had to fix a lot of errors. There is no way Redis can be using this code base as there is no logical way it would have ever built. I have created the module-oss.so file but because of how many errors I will have to fork it into my repo for the purposes of obtaining that file. As well, i will submit a pull request here but oddly (and like I said) there is no way Redis internally can be using this code base.

I posted a reply to this closed thread. as of now the module is built and applied to a custom image but the module still won't initialize

bitnami/charts#21597

@svabra we have a solution!

@xtianus79 That is great news, but please share here. I'm not the only one interested in enabling the Cluster-wide search functionality based on secondary-indices. Anyhow, it is a disgrace that Redis is not sharing it.

[xtianus79]

It is actually shared but probably not well understood and thus documented. I am trying to test using it but please follow this thread.

@svabra Great News! So I have the cluster working in k8s but i can't get it working in my local with docker compose. It's the last thing I wanted to do before I posted everything. it's just that module-oss as the redis-cluster in docker-compose won't form when it's installed.

Because I have it working I will deploy the docker custom image so you can have that work. I'll also keep trying to get a methodology for running it local with the dc and update from there. you are welcome to contribute.

@svabra it's fixed.
https://github.com/xtianus79/bitnami-redis-cluster-modules let me know if this works for you.
