Elasto is a simple library to query Elasticsearch.
npm install elastoIf you want to use this package with Elasticsearch 0.90, you should use 1.1.2. The versions >=2.X.X will only support Elasticsearch 1.X.X.
More infos about the config options here.
var Elasto = require('elasto');
Elasto.config({
host: 'localhost:9200',
});Elasto provides a simple query interface for the common usecases. You can have access to the elasticsearch.js client via Elasto.client.
The client gets instantiated when you set the config with a host.
All-in-one example. Find more options on API.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.near({ // documents near this location
lat: 51.5,
lon: -0.1467912,
radius: 3
})
.where('name', 'London') // where name matches London
.size(2) // return only 2 documents
.from(1) // skip 1 document (searching after 1 document)
.fields('name', 'address') // return only name and address fields
.exec()
.then(function (res) { // execute
// done!
});Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.exec();.where
.where accepts two types of arguments. Either an object with the fields to match.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.where({ username: '@jack'})
.exec();Or key value pair of arguments
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.where('username', '@jack')
.exec();.term
Search a term.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.term('#love')
.exec();.size.limit
Limit the size of the query.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.limit(3)
.exec();.sort.limit
Sorts the query by a field the size of the query.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.sort('description', 'asc')
.exec();You can also sort by distance. It will sort based on the location field in the document.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.sort('distance', {
lat: 51.5,
lon: -0.1467912,
})
.exec();.near
Finds documents in an area. The radius is in miles.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.near({
lat: 51.5,
lon: -0.1467912,
radius: 2
})
.exec();.from.offset
Skips documents in the query.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.from(3)
.exec();.range
Find documents where the field matches a range.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.range('characters', [120, 150])
.exec();You can also query the distance range. It will sort based on the location field in the document. All the distances are in miles.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.range('distance', {
lat: 51.5,
lon: -0.1467912,
from: 2,
to: 3
})
.exec();.fields
Only return the specific fields.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.fields(['name', 'id'])
.exec();.exclude.not
Excludes documents where the query gets matched (opposite of .where).
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.not('username', '@hater666')
.exec();Count documents based on a query
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.count();Returns the raw ElasticSearch computed by Elasto. You can directly use that object with the ElasticSearch node library (that's how Elasto is designed).
Takes search or count as argument. If empty, the raw query will be search.
Elasto.query({
index: 'development',
type: 'tweets'
})
.raw();
// Returns Object
// -> { index: 'development',
// type: 'tweets',
