Set indexer to manual

Question

How do you set indexer to manual in magento2?

I do not see any option under bin/magento

Answer 1

There's no such thing as manual indexing on Magento 2 anymore.

The two modes available are:

• realtime which is the equivalent of M1 update on save
• schedule which sets the specified indexers to save according to the cron schedule.

To change the indexing mode via the CLI you can run:

magento indexer:set-mode {schedule|realtime} [indexer]

For example:

magento indexer:set-mode schedule catalog_category_product catalog_product_category
