Overview of this book

ElasticSearch is one of the most promising NoSQL technologies available and is built to provide a scalable search solution with built-in support for near real-time search and multi-tenancy. This practical guide is a complete reference for using ElasticSearch and covers 360 degrees of the ElasticSearch ecosystem. We will get started by showing you how to choose the correct transport layer, communicate with the server, and create custom internal actions for boosting tailored needs. Starting with the basics of the ElasticSearch architecture and how to efficiently index, search, and execute analytics on it, you will learn how to extend ElasticSearch by scripting and monitoring its behaviour. Step-by-step, this book will help you to improve your ability to manage data in indexing with more tailored mappings, along with searching and executing analytics with facets. The topics explored in the book also cover how to integrate ElasticSearch with Python and Java applications. This comprehensive guide will allow you to master storing, searching, and analyzing data with ElasticSearch.

Creating an HTTP client

An HTTP Client is one of the easiest clients to create. It's very handy because it allows calling not only the internal methods as the Native protocol does, but also the third-party calls implemented in plugins that can be called only via HTTP.

Getting ready

You need a working ElasticSearch cluster and Maven installed. The code of this recipe is in the chapter_10/http_client directory present in the code bundle available on Packt's website.

How to do it...

For creating an HTTP client, we will perform the steps given as follows:

  1. For these examples, we have chosen the Apache HttpComponents that is one of the most famous libraries to execute HTTP calls. This library is available in the main Maven repository search.Maven.org. To enable the compilation in your Maven pom.xml project, just add:
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
      <artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
      <version>4.3</version>
    </dependency...
