API Documentation
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.
Note
for compatibility with the Python ecosystem we use from_ instead of
from and doc_type instead of type as parameter names.
Elasticsearch
-
class elasticsearch.Elasticsearch(hosts=None, transport_class=<class 'elasticsearch.transport.Transport'>, **kwargs)
Elasticsearch low-level client. Provides a straightforward mapping from
Python to ES REST endpoints.
The instance has attributes indices and cluster that provide access to
IndicesClient and
ClusterClient instances respectively.
Parameters: |
- hosts – list of nodes we should connect to. Node should be a
dictionary ({“host”: “localhost”, “port”: 9200}), the entire dictionary
will be passed to the Connection class as
kwargs, or a string in the format ot host[:port] which will be
translated to a dictionary automatically. If no value is given the
Connection class defaults will be used.
- transport_class – Transport subclass to use.
- kwargs – any additional arguments will be passed on to the
Transport class and, subsequently, to the
Connection instances.
