http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/[SQuirreL SQL] is a graphical, [multi-platform] Java program that will allow you to view the structure of a JDBC compliant database [...].
|
|
____
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: Elastic does not endorse, promote or provide support for this application; for native Elasticsearch integration in this product, please reach out to its vendor.
|
|
|
|
==== Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
* {es-sql} <<sql-jdbc, JDBC driver>>
|
|
|
|
==== Add {es} JDBC Driver
|
|
|
|
To add the {es} JDBC driver, use *Windows* > *View Drivers* menu (or Ctrl+Shift+D shortcut):
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
This opens up the `Drivers` panel on the left. Click on the `+` sign to create a new driver:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Select the *Extra Class Path* tab and *Add* the JDBC jar. *List Drivers* to have the `Class Name` filled-in
|
|
automatically and name the connection:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The driver should now appear in the list:

|
|
|
|
==== Add an alias for {es}
|
|
|
|
Add a new connection or in SQuirelL terminology an _alias_ using the new driver. To do so, select the *Aliases* panel on the left and click the `+` sign:
|
|
|
|
image:images/sql/client-apps/squirell-5-add-alias.png[]
|
|
|
|
Name the new alias and select the `Elasticsearch` driver previously added:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The setup is completed. Double check it by clicking on *Test Connection*.
|
|
|
|
==== Execute SQL queries
|
|
|
|
The connection should open automatically (if it has been created before simply click on *Connect* in the *Alias* panel). SQuirelL SQL can now issue SQL commands to {es}:
