Description

Recently algoliasearch released the new major version v4 of its Python client and it has multiple breaking changes, which will impact one of the edX platform plugins. So we must make that plugin compatible with algoliasearch v4 before upgrading this package.

Changelog: https://algolia.com/doc/libraries/python/v4/upgrade/
