Flummi Elastic Search HTTP Client
=================================


[![Maven Central](https://maven-badges.herokuapp.com/maven-central/de.otto/flummi/badge.svg)](https://maven-badges.herokuapp.com/maven-central/de.otto/flummi)
![OSS Lifecycle](https://img.shields.io/osslifecycle?file_url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fotto-de%2Fflummi%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2FOSSMETADATA)

Flummi is a client library for Elastic Search. It has been successfully tested with Elastic Search versions 6 and 7.
It provides a comprehensive Java query DSL API and communicates with
the Elastic Search Cluster via HTTP/JSON. It is licensed under the [Apache 2 License](http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html).

Why should I use Flummi?
------------------------

* Flummi uses HTTP and JSON for communication with Elastic Search. Its only dependencies are Gson and AsyncHttpClient, so
it is good for you if you don't want to have your application depend on the full ElasticSearch JAR.
* Flummi's API is as close as possible to the original Elmastic Search transport client API. This makes it very easy to
port existing client code to Flummi.
* Flummi uses the Elastic Search Scroll API for downloading large result sets as a stream of smaller pages.
* It supports parent-child relationships

Limitations
-----------

* Flummi does not support cluster load balancing yet. You can use a hardware loadbalancer or HTTP Proxy such as nginx.
* Although it supports the most common query and request types, it is not yet fully feature complete. When you need a
request or query type that is not yet supported by Flummi, please feel free to add it and send us a Pull Request!

Which version should I use?
---------------------------

Flummi versions starting with 7.x are intended for use with Elastic Search 6 and 7. Use older versions of the Library for older ES versions.
Flummi versions starting with 8.x are intended for use with Elastic Search 8, because the field _type is not supported in ES8.

How to use Flummi
-----------------

You can simply include Flummi in your Maven or Gradle build as follows.

For Maven users:


de.otto
flummi
8.0.0.0

For gradle users:

compile "de.otto:flummi:8.0.0.0"

### Getting started

For using Flummi in a Java application, initialize it as follows.

AsyncHttpClient asyncHttpClient = new AsyncHttpClient();
Flummi flummi = new Flummi(asyncHttpClient, "http://elasticsearch.base.url:9200");

### Using Flummi with Spring

For using Flummi in a Spring or Spring Boot application, you can add a simple `@Configuration` class for
initialization and then autowire Flummi in your beans.

@Configuration
public class FlummiConfiguration {

@Bean
public AsyncHttpClient asyncHttpClient() {
return new AsyncHttpClient();
}

@Bean
public Flummi flummi() {
return new Flummi(asyncHttpClient(), "http://elasticsearch.base.url:9200");
}
}

### Creating an index

The following example creates a products index with a customized analyzer for the name property.

JsonObject settings = GsonHelper.object(
"analysis", GsonHelper.object(
"analyzer", GsonHelper.object(
"lowercase-analyzer", GsonHelper.object(
"tokenizer", "keyword-tokenizer",
"filter", "lowercase-filter"
)
),
"tokenizer", GsonHelper.object(
"keyword-tokenizer", GsonHelper.object(
"type", "keyword"
)
),
"filter", GsonHelper.object(
"lowercase-filter", GsonHelper.object(
"type", "lowercase"
)
)
)
);
JsonObject mappings = GsonHelper.object(
"products", GsonHelper.object(
"properties", GsonHelper.object(
"name", GsonHelper.object(
"type", "string",
"store", "yes",
"analyzer", "lowercase-analyzer",
"fields", GsonHelper.object(
"raw", GsonHelper.object(
"type", "string",
"index", "not_analyzed"
)
)
),
"color", GsonHelper.object(
"type", "string",
"store", "no",
"index", "not_analyzed"
)
)
)
);

flummi.admin().indices()
.prepareCreate("products")
.setSettings(settings)
.setMappings(mappings)
.execute();

### Indexing documents

A simple example that adds a product to the products index

JsonObject bouncingBall1 = GsonHelper.object(
"name", "Bouncing Ball small",
"color", "green"
);

flummi.prepareIndex()
.setId("bblsml-4710")
.setSource(bouncingBall1)
.setIndexName("products")
.setDocumentType("product")
.execute();

### Bulk Requests

A [bulk request](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-bulk.html)
is a single HTTP request that contains multiple actions. For indexing large amounts of data, this is
much more efficient than sending one request for every document. The following simple example adds some products to the
product index using a Bulk Request

JsonObject bouncingBall1 = GsonHelper.object(
"name", "Bouncing Ball with smiley",
"color", "yellow"
);
JsonObject bouncingBall2 = GsonHelper.object(
"name", "Bouncing Ball XL extra bouncy",
"color", "transparent"
);

flummi.prepareBulk()
.add(
new IndexActionBuilder("products")
.setSource(bouncingBall1)
.setId("bblsmly-4711")
.setType("product") // type isn't supported in ES8
)
.add(
new IndexActionBuilder("products")
.setSource(bouncingBall2)
.setId("bblxlxb-4712")
.setType("product") // type isn't supported in ES8
)
.execute();

### Executing Queries

A simple example that finds up to 10 yellow-colored products in the products index:

SearchRequestBuilder searchRequestBuilder = flummi
.prepareSearch("products")
.setTypes("product")
.setSize(10)
.setQuery(
QueryBuilders.termQuery("color", "yellow")
.build()
)
.setTimeoutMillis(150);

SearchResponse searchResponse = searchRequestBuilder.execute()

System.out.println("Found " + searchResponse.getHits().getTotalHits() + " products");
searchResponse.getHits()
.stream().map(hit -> hit.getSource().get("name").getAsString())
.forEach(name -> System.out.println("Name: " + name));

#### Streaming large result sets with the Scroll API

For streaming large result sets, Flummi uses the
[Elastic Search Scroll API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-scroll.html)
to split the result set into smaller pages and thus reduce memory usage and network bandwidth. To use it, simply
`setScroll("1m")` on your `SearchRequestBuilder` before calling `execute()`.

### Aggregation queries

The following example shows how to do simple terms bucket aggregations.

SearchRequestBuilder searchRequestBuilder = flummi
.prepareSearch("products")
.setTypes("product")
.setSize(10)
.setQuery(
QueryBuilders.matchAll().build()
)
.addAggregation(
new TermsBuilder("Colors").field("color").size(0)
);

SearchResponse searchResponse = searchRequestBuilder.execute()

AggregationResult colors = searchResponse.getAggregations().get("Colors");
colors.getBuckets().forEach(bucket -> System.out.println(
"Found " + bucket.getDocCount() + " " + bucket.getKey() + " products"));

Compatibility
-------------

Flummi version 7.x is compatible with Elastic Search 6.x and 7.x
Flummi version 8.x is compatible with Elastic Search 8.x

Flummi is build with JDK 8
