Use the elasticsearch-js client with Amazon ES

Connection handler for Amazon ES

Makes elasticsearch-js compatible with Amazon ES. It uses the aws-sdk to make signed requests to an Amazon ES endpoint.

Installation

# Install the connector, elasticsearch client and aws-sdk
npm install --save http-aws-es aws-sdk elasticsearch

Usage

// configure the region for aws-sdk
let AWS = require('aws-sdk');
AWS.config.update({ region: 'us-east-1' });

// create an elasticsearch client for your Amazon ES
var es = require('elasticsearch').Client({
  hosts: [ 'https://amazon-es-host.us-east-1.es.amazonaws.com:80' ],
  connectionClass: require('http-aws-es')
});

Credentials

The connector uses aws-sdk's default credential behaviour to obtain credentials from your environment. If you would like to set credentials manually, you can set them on aws-sdk:

AWS.config.update({
  credentials: new AWS.Credentials(accessKeyId, secretAccessKey)
});

Test

npm run test -- --endpoint https://amazon-es-host.us-east-1.es.amazonaws.com:80 --region us-east-1
