# Java client

The OpenSearch Java client allows you to interact with your OpenSearch clusters through Java methods and data structures rather than HTTP methods and raw JSON.

For example, you can submit requests to your cluster using objects to create indices, add data to documents, or complete some other operation using the client's built-in methods.

## Setup

To start using the OpenSearch Java client, ensure that you have the following dependency in your project's `pom.xml` file:

```
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.opensearch.client</groupId>
  <artifactId>opensearch-java</artifactId>
  <version>0.1.0</version>
</dependency>
```

If you're using Gradle, add the following dependencies to your project.

```
dependencies {
    implementation 'org.opensearch.client:opensearch-rest-client: {{site.opensearch_version}}'
    implementation 'org.opensearch.client:opensearch-java:0.1.0'
}
```

You can now start your OpenSearch cluster.

The following example uses credentials that come with the default OpenSearch configuration. If you're using the OpenSearch Java client with your own OpenSearch cluster, be sure to change the code to use your own credentials.

## Sample code

This section uses a class called `IndexData`, which is a simple Java class that stores basic data and methods. For your own OpenSearch cluster, you might find that you need a more robust class to store your data.

### IndexData class

```java
static class IndexData {
  private String firstName;
  private String lastName;

  public IndexData(String firstName, String lastName) {
    this.firstName = firstName;
    this.lastName = lastName;
  }

  public String getFirstName() {
    return firstName;
  }

  public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
    this.firstName = firstName;
  }

  public String getLastName() {
    return lastName;
  }

  public void setLastName(String lastName) {
    this.lastName = lastName;
  }

  @Override
  public String toString() {
    return String.format("IndexData{first name='%s', last name='%s'}", firstName, lastName);
  }
}
```
