This repository contains the code examples from the book Elasticsearch in Action.

When do I need them?

Because it's nice to have some sample data to run various searches from the book's listings. Throughout most chapters, there's an example use-case of running a get-together site, where you have people organizing themselves into groups and hosting events. Code samples provide you with some data and a script to index that data.

How do I index the sample data?

# clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/dakrone/elasticsearch-in-action.git

# switch to a branch that matches your version. Master works with 1.x and 2.x
# but we currently support 5.x, 6.x and 7.x as well:
git clone https://github.com/dakrone/elasticsearch-in-action.git -b 7.x

# index the sample data
elasticsearch-in-action/populate.sh

I have questions or suggestions for these samples

You have feedback? We'd be glad to hear it from you on the book's forum. To get there, go to the live book and click on the discuss button on the top-right. You can also send pull requests or open issues on this repository.

Happy reading and Elasticsearch-ing!
