Common and easy way to manage ES backend in django based on elasticutils and elasticsearch-py.
In order to hack on django-esutils, you'll need to set at least an Elasticsearch instance available from your machine.
You can install it manually or more simply, use a docker container like this:
docker run --net host dockerfile/elasticsearch
and then you can browse your ES server at: http://127.0.0.1:9200/
add a local_settings.py
file in your demo/demo_esutils
directory, with these settings:
ES_URLS = [
'http://127.0.0.1:9200',
]
(or change it to fit your ES target configuration)
Now that your ES instance is ready, and your database connection set, simply run the tests using tox, preferrably in a virtualenv:
mkvirtualenv TOX
pip install tox
tox
