== API Anatomy
Once a <<client,GClient>> has been
obtained, all of Elasticsearch APIs can be executed on it. Each Groovy
API is exposed using three different mechanisms.
[[closure]]
=== Closure Request
The first type is to simply provide the request as a Closure, which
automatically gets resolved into the respective request instance (for
the index API, its the `IndexRequest` class). The API returns a special
future, called `GActionFuture`. This is a groovier version of
elasticsearch Java `ActionFuture` (in turn a nicer extension to Java own
`Future`) which allows to register listeners (closures) on it for
success and failures, as well as blocking for the response. For example:
[source,groovy]
--------------------------------------------------
def indexR = client.index {
index "test"
type "type1"
id "1"
source {
test = "value"
complex {
value1 = "value1"
value2 = "value2"
}
}
}
println "Indexed $indexR.response.id into $indexR.response.index/$indexR.response.type"
--------------------------------------------------
In the above example, calling `indexR.response` will simply block for
the response. We can also block for the response for a specific timeout:
[source,groovy]
--------------------------------------------------
IndexResponse response = indexR.response "5s" // block for 5 seconds, same as:
response = indexR.response 5, TimeValue.SECONDS //
--------------------------------------------------
We can also register closures that will be called on success and on
failure:
[source,groovy]
--------------------------------------------------
indexR.success = {IndexResponse response ->
println "Indexed $response.id into $response.index/$response.type"
}
indexR.failure = {Throwable t ->
println "Failed to index: $t.message"
}
--------------------------------------------------
[[request]]
=== Request
This option allows to pass the actual instance of the request (instead
of a closure) as a parameter. The rest is similar to the closure as a
parameter option (the `GActionFuture` handling). For example:
[source,groovy]
--------------------------------------------------
def indexR = client.index (new IndexRequest(
index: "test",
type: "type1",
id: "1",
source: {
test = "value"
complex {
value1 = "value1"
value2 = "value2"
}
}))
println "Indexed $indexR.response.id into $indexR.response.index/$indexR.response.type"
--------------------------------------------------
[[java-like]]
=== Java Like
The last option is to provide an actual instance of the API request, and
an `ActionListener` for the callback. This is exactly like the Java API
with the added `gexecute` which returns the `GActionFuture`:
[source,groovy]
--------------------------------------------------
def indexR = node.client.prepareIndex("test", "type1", "1").setSource({
test = "value"
complex {
value1 = "value1"
value2 = "value2"
}
}).gexecute()
--------------------------------------------------
