Elasticsearch Movies

====================

This project was built to test Elasticsearch. It performs searches against a database of 2000 of the top movies according to [The Movie DB](http://themoviedb.org).

Installation

------------

First, follow the normal Rails application steps:

```bash

bundle install # install gems

rake db:create db:schema:load # create the DB and load the schema

```

If you have an API key for [The Movie DB's API](http://www.themoviedb.org/documentation/api), you can run the following command to populate the database:

```bash

MOVIEDB_API_KEY="my_api_key" rake movies:populate

```

To save some time, the IDs for the top 2000 movies are hardcoded; see `lib/tasks/movies.rake` for more information.

If you do *not* have an API key, you can [download an SQLite database preloaded with the data](https://github.com/BinaryMuse/elastic-movies/releases/download/demo/development.sqlite3). Simply drop it into your `db/` folder with the name `development.sqlite3`.

Creating the Elasticsearch Index

--------------------------------

You can run

```bash

rake search:index

```

to create the index. **This will erase any existing index named `movies` and create a new index of that name.**
