Elastic

Elastic is an Elasticsearch client for the Go programming language.

Build Status Godoc license

See the wiki for additional information about Elastic.

Releases

The release branches (e.g. release-branch.v5) are actively being worked on and can break at any time. If you want to use stable versions of Elastic, please use the packages released via gopkg.in.

Here's the version matrix:

Elasticsearch version Elastic version - Package URL
5.x 5.0 gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v5 (source doc)
2.x 3.0 gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v3 (source doc)
1.x 2.0 gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v2 (source doc)
0.9-1.3 1.0 gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v1 (source doc)

Example:

You have installed Elasticsearch 5.0.0 and want to use Elastic. As listed above, you should use Elastic 5.0. So you first install the stable release of Elastic 5.0 from gopkg.in.

$ go get gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v5

You then import it with this import path:

import elastic "gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v5"
Elastic 5.0

Elastic 5.0 targets Elasticsearch 5.0.0 and later. Elasticsearch 5.0.0 was released on 26th October 2016.

Notice that there are will be a lot of breaking changes in Elasticsearch 5.0 and we used this as an opportunity to clean up and refactor Elastic as we did in the transition from Elastic 2.0 (for Elasticsearch 1.x) to Elastic 3.0 (for Elasticsearch 2.x).

Furthermore, the jump in version numbers will give us a chance to be in sync with the Elastic Stack.

Elastic 3.0

Elastic 3.0 targets Elasticsearch 2.x and is published via gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v3.

Elastic 3.0 will only get critical bug fixes. You should update to a recent version.

Elastic 2.0

Elastic 2.0 targets Elasticsearch 1.x and is published via gopkg.in/olivere/elastic.v2.

Elastic 2.0 will only get critical bug fixes. You should update to a recent version.

Elastic 1.0

Elastic 1.0 is deprecated. You should really update Elasticsearch and Elastic to a recent version.

However, if you cannot update for some reason, don't worry. Version 1.0 is still available. All you need to do is go-get it and change your import path as described above.

Status

We use Elastic in production since 2012. Elastic is stable but the API changes now and then. We strive for API compatibility. However, Elasticsearch sometimes introduces breaking changes and we sometimes have to adapt.

Having said that, there have been no big API changes that required you to rewrite your application big time. More often than not it's renaming APIs and adding/removing features so that Elastic is in sync with Elasticsearch.

Elastic has been used in production with the following Elasticsearch versions: 0.90, 1.0-1.7, and 2.0-2.4.1. Furthermore, we use Travis CI to test Elastic with the most recent versions of Elasticsearch and Go. See the .travis.yml file for the exact matrix and Travis for the results.

Elasticsearch has quite a few features. Most of them are implemented by Elastic. I add features and APIs as required. It's straightforward to implement missing pieces. I'm accepting pull requests :-)

Having said that, I hope you find the project useful.

Getting Started

The first thing you do is to create a Client. The client connects to Elasticsearch on http://127.0.0.1:9200 by default.

You typically create one client for your app. Here's a complete example of creating a client, creating an index, adding a document, executing a search etc.

An example is available here

Here's a link to a complete working example for v3.

See the wiki for more details.

Documentation ¶

Overview ¶

Package elastic provides an interface to the Elasticsearch server (https://www.elastic.co/products/elasticsearch).

The first thing you do is to create a Client. If you have Elasticsearch installed and running with its default settings (i.e. available at http://127.0.0.1:9200), all you need to do is: 

client, err := elastic.NewClient()
if err != nil {
	// Handle error
}

If your Elasticsearch server is running on a different IP and/or port, just provide a URL to NewClient: 

// Create a client and connect to http://192.168.2.10:9201
client, err := elastic.NewClient(elastic.SetURL("http://192.168.2.10:9201"))
if err != nil {
  // Handle error
}

You can pass many more configuration parameters to NewClient. Review the documentation of NewClient for more information.

If no Elasticsearch server is available, services will fail when creating a new request and will return ErrNoClient.

A Client provides services. The services usually come with a variety of methods to prepare the query and a Do function to execute it against the Elasticsearch REST interface and return a response. Here is an example of the IndexExists service that checks if a given index already exists. 

exists, err := client.IndexExists("twitter").Do(context.Background())
if err != nil {
	// Handle error
}
if !exists {
	// Index does not exist yet.
}

Look up the documentation for Client to get an idea of the services provided and what kinds of responses you get when executing the Do function of a service. Also see the wiki on Github for more details.
