Elasticsearch new low level rest-client wrapper

Why?

To quote “State of the official Elasticsearch Java clients”

The Java REST client is the future for Java users of Elasticsearch.

Because the legacy native client is a bit of a nightmare to deal with (for many reasons) and the new REST client is quite capable and fast too, see “Benchmarking REST client and transport client”

Not to mention it supports some interesting features:

Goals

Setup

(require '[qbits.spandex :as s])

(def c (s/client {:hosts ["http://127.0.0.1:9200" "https://foo2:3838"]}))

;; add optional sniffer
(def s (s/sniffer c {... options ...}))

Constructing URLs

Most of spandex request functions take a request map as parameter. The :url key differs a bit from the original RING spec, it allows to pass a raw string but also a sequence (potentially 2d) of encodable things, keywords, .toString'able objects that make sense or nil (which could be caused by a missing :url key).

(s/request c {:url [:foo :bar :_search] ...})
(s/request c {:url [:foo [:bar :something "more"] :_search] ...})
(s/request c {:url :_search ...})
(s/request c {:url "/index/_search" ...})
(s/request c {:url (java.util.UUID/randomUUID) ...})
(s/request c {...}) ;; defaults to "/"

Blocking requests

(s/request c {:url [:entries :entry :_search]
              :method :get
              :body {:query {:match_all {}}}})

>> {:body {:_index "entries", :_type "entry", :_id "AVkDDJvdkd2OsNWu4oYk", :_version 1, :_shards {:total 2, :successful 1, :failed 0}, :created true}, :status 201, :headers {"Content-Type" "application/json; charset=UTF-8", "Content-Length" "141"}, :host #object[org.apache.http.HttpHost 0x62b90fad "http://127.0.0.1:9200"]}

Async requests (callbacks)

(s/request-async c {:url "/urls/url/"
                    :method :get
                    :body {:query {:match {:message "this is a test"}}}
                    :success (fn [response-as-clj] ... )
                    :error (fn [ex] :boom)})

Async requests: core.async/promise-chan

(async/<!! (s/request-chan c {:url "/urls/url/"
                              :method :get
                              :body {:query {:match {:message "this is a test"}}}}))

Scrolling

Scrolling via core.async (fully NIO internally), interruptible if you async/close! the returned chan.

(async/go
  (let [ch (s/scroll-chan client {:url "/foo/_search" :body {:query {:match_all {}}}})]
    (loop []
      (when-let [page (async/<! ch)]
        (do-something-with-page page)
        (recur)))))

Bulk requests scheduling

“Faux streaming” of _bulk requests (flushes bulk request after configurable interval or threshold. Uses request-chan internally, so it's quite cheap.

(let [{:keys [input-ch output-ch]} (bulk-chan client {:flush-threshold 100
                                                      :flush-interval 5000
                                                      :max-concurrent-requests 3})]
  ;; happily takes a sequence of actions or single fragments
  (async/put! input-ch [{:delete {:_index "foo" :_id "1234"}} {:_index :bar} {:create {...}}])
  (async/put! input-ch {"delete" {"_index" "website" "_type" "blog" "_id" "123"}}))

;; setup an response consumer (we just want to make sure we don't clog this channel)
(future (loop [] (async/<!! (:output-ch c))))
