Transport classes
=================
List of transport classes that can be used, simply import your choice and pass
it to the constructor of :class:`~elasticsearch.Elasticsearch` as
`connection_class`. Note that the
:class:`~elasticsearch.connection.RequestsHttpConnection` requires ``requests``
to be installed.
For example to use the ``requests``-based connection just import it and use it:
.. code-block:: python
from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch, RequestsHttpConnection
es = Elasticsearch(connection_class=RequestsHttpConnection)
The default connection class is based on ``urllib3`` which is more performant
and lightweight than the optional ``requests``-based class. Only use
``RequestsHttpConnection`` if you have need of any of ``requests`` advanced
features like custom auth plugins etc.
Product check on first request
------------------------------
Starting in v7.14.0 the client performs a required product check before
the first API call is executed. This product check allows the client to
establish that it's communicating with a supported Elasticsearch cluster.
The product check requires a single HTTP request to the ``info`` API. In
most cases this request will succeed quickly and then no further product
check HTTP requests will be sent.
The product check will verify that the ``X-Elastic-Product: Elasticsearch``
HTTP header is being sent or if the ``info`` API indicates a supported
distribution of Elasticsearch.
If the client detects that it's not connected to a supported distribution of
Elasticsearch the ``UnsupportedProductError`` exception will be raised.
In previous versions of Elasticsearch the ``info`` API required additional
permissions so if an authentication or authorization error is raised during
the product check then an ``ElasticsearchWarning`` is raised and the client
proceeds normally.
