@ -5,7 +5,275 @@ The `shards` command is the detailed view of what nodes contain which
shards. It will tell you if it's a primary or replica, the number of
docs, the bytes it takes on disk, and the node where it's located.
Here we see a single index, with one primary shard and no replicas:

===== Example with a index wildcard pattern
If you have many shards, you may wish to limit which indices show up
in the output. You can always do this with `grep`, but you can save
some bandwidth by supplying an index pattern to the end.
If your cluster has many shards, you can use a wildcard pattern in the `{index}`
path parameter to limit the API request.
The following request returns information for any indices beginning with
`twitt`.
