Python client for Elasticsearch
Project description
Official low-level client for Elasticsearch. It’s goal is to provide common ground for all Elasticsearch-related code in Python; because of this it tries to be opinion-free and very extendable.
Versioning
There are two branches for development - master and 0.4. Master branch is used to track all the changes for Elasticsearch 1.0 and beyond whereas 0.4 tracks Elasticsearch 0.90.
Releases with major version 1 (1.X.Y) are to be used with Elasticsearch 1.0 and later, 0.4 releases are meant to work with Elasticsearch 0.90.X.
Installation
Install the elasticsearch package with pip:
pip install elasticsearch
Example use
Simple use-case:
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
# by default we connect to localhost:9200
>>> es = Elasticsearch()
# datetimes will be serialized
>>> es.index(index="my-index", doc_type="test-type", id=42, body={"any": "data", "timestamp": datetime.now()})
{u'_id': u'42', u'_index': u'my-index', u'_type': u'test-type', u'_version': 1, u'ok': True}
# but not deserialized
>>> es.get(index="my-index", doc_type="test-type", id=42)['_source']
{u'any': u'data', u'timestamp': u'2013-05-12T19:45:31.804229'}
Features
The client’s features include:
translating basic Python data types to and from json (datetimes are not decoded for performance reasons)
configurable automatic discovery of cluster nodes
persistent connections
load balancing (with pluggable selection strategy) across all availible nodes
failed connection penalization (time based - failed connections won’t be retried until a timeout is reached)
thread safety
pluggable architecture
