This is a DIY cartridge for setting up ElasticSearch (currently 0.90.7) on Openshift, behind an Nginx proxy with basic auth. It also sets up Elastic Head (admin UI).
###Getting Started
- Create an account with Openshift
- Install RHC client
####Setup rhc rhc setup
####Setup a new Teamcity application rhc app create diy-0.1 --from-code=git://github.com/sriv/openshift-elasticsearch.git -e SEARCH_USERNAME= -e SEARCH_PASSWORD=
Here,
<instance>is the name of the application that you'd like<username>and<password>are the credentials that you'd like to setup.
For example, say
openshift namespace = foo
<instance> = bar
The url then looks like http://bar-foo.rhcloud.com.
Elastic Head is available at http://bar-foo.rhcloud.com/_plugin/head/
###Authentication on NGinx
This cartridge sets up an Nginx instance, with elasticsearch bound as one upstream. It uses basic auth for this. The username and password are setup using htpasswd
