|
|
== Overview
|
|
|
|
Official low-level client for Elasticsearch. Its goal is to provide common
|
|
ground for all Elasticsearch-related code in Python; because of this it tries
|
|
to be opinion-free and very extendable. The full documentation is available at
|
|
http://elasticsearch-py.rtfd.org/
|
|
|
|
It can be installed with:
|
|
|
|
[source,sh]
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
pip install elasticsearch
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
=== Example use
|
|
|
|
Simple use-case:
|
|
|
|
[source,python]
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
>>> from datetime import datetime
|
|
>>> from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
|
|
|
|
# by default we connect to localhost:9200
|
|
>>> es = Elasticsearch()
|
|
|
|
# datetimes will be serialized
|
|
>>> es.index(index="my-index", doc_type="test-type", id=42, body={"any": "data", "timestamp": datetime.now()})
|
|
{u'_id': u'42', u'_index': u'my-index', u'_type': u'test-type', u'_version': 1, u'ok': True}
|
|
|
|
# but not deserialized
|
|
>>> es.get(index="my-index", doc_type="test-type", id=42)['_source']
|
|
{u'any': u'data', u'timestamp': u'2013-05-12T19:45:31.804229'}
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
All the API calls map the raw REST api as closely as possible, including
|
|
the distinction between required and optional arguments to the calls. This
|
|
means that the code makes distinction between positional and keyword arguments;
|
|
we, however, recommend that people use keyword arguments for all calls for
|
|
consistency and safety.
|
|
|
|
=== Features
|
|
|
|
The client's features include:
|
|
|
|
* translating basic Python data types to and from json (datetimes are not
|
|
decoded for performance reasons)
|
|
|
|
* configurable automatic discovery of cluster nodes
|
|
|
|
* persistent connections
|
|
|
|
* load balancing (with pluggable selection strategy) across all available nodes
|
|
|
|
* failed connection penalization (time based - failed connections won't be
|
|
retried until a timeout is reached)
|
|
|
|
* thread safety
|
|
|
|
* pluggable architecture
