This module disables the indexation of attachments content. Attachment model has a field called 'index_content' where the content of the attachment is read and stored directly in the database. This field is useful in order to search content of a file. But most of cases it is not used, so, you can install this module in order to: - **Avoid Duplicating Data:** Because indexation extracts text content from files and put it on the database in order it could be searched, but this implies you have the file data in your `filestore` directory, and also part (or sometimes all) of that data in your database too. - **Improve Performance:** Since not all indexed files are plain text, they require extra process to read them. Maybe you could try to uninstall modules like `document` in order to disable its indexation features, but you could face the uninstallation of other modules that could be useful for you (e.g, `hr_recruitment` depends on that). But even if you don't have `document` installed, you'd still have plain text content indexation by default. As you can see in this SQL query results, indexation is active even without it: [![SQL Query result showing indexed content](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/442938/67894113-45d27a80-fb2e-11e9-9a22-ba43d8b444c5.png)](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/442938/67894113-45d27a80-fb2e-11e9-9a22-ba43d8b444c5.png) Using this module you will not require to uninstall any module to disable the attachment content indexation, because we directly disable it at `ir.attachment` base. Also, after the installation, the `index_content` field on attachments already recorded in database will be cleared.
