Connection Layer API
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
All of the classes responsible for handling the connection to the Elasticsearch
|
|
cluster. The default subclasses used can be overridden by passing parameters to the
|
|
:class:`~elasticsearch.Elasticsearch` class. All of the arguments to the client
|
|
will be passed on to :class:`~elasticsearch.Transport`,
|
|
:class:`~elasticsearch.ConnectionPool` and :class:`~elasticsearch.Connection`.
|
|
|
|
For example if you wanted to use your own implementation of the
|
|
:class:`~elasticsearch.ConnectionSelector` class you can just pass in the
|
|
``selector_class`` parameter.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
:class:`~elasticsearch.ConnectionPool` and related options (like
|
|
``selector_class``) will only be used if more than one connection is defined.
|
|
Either directly or via the :ref:`sniffing` mechanism.

Transport
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
.. autoclass:: Transport(hosts, connection_class=Urllib3HttpConnection, connection_pool_class=ConnectionPool, host_info_callback=construct_hosts_list, sniff_on_start=False, sniffer_timeout=None, sniff_on_connection_fail=False, serializer=JSONSerializer(), max_retries=3, ** kwargs)

Connection Pool
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
.. autoclass:: ConnectionPool(connections, dead_timeout=60, selector_class=RoundRobinSelector, randomize_hosts=True, ** kwargs)
|
|

Connection Selector
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
.. autoclass:: ConnectionSelector(opts)

|
:members:

|

|
|
|
Urllib3HttpConnection (default connection_class)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you have complex SSL logic for connecting to Elasticsearch using an `SSLContext` object
|
|
might be more helpful. You can create one natively using the python SSL library with the
|
|
`create_default_context` (https://docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html#ssl.create_default_context) method.
|
|
|
|
To create an `SSLContext` object you only need to use one of cafile, capath or cadata:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
>>> from ssl import create_default_context
|
|
>>> context = create_default_context(cafile=None, capath=None, cadata=None)
|
|
|
|
* `cafile` is the path to your CA File
|
|
* `capath` is the directory of a collection of CA's
|
|
* `cadata` is either an ASCII string of one or more PEM-encoded certificates or a bytes-like object of DER-encoded certificates.
|
|
|
|
Please note that the use of SSLContext is only available for urllib3.

API Compatibility HTTP Header
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
The Python client can be configured to emit an HTTP header
|
|
``Accept: application/vnd.elasticsearch+json; compatible-with=7``
|
|
which signals to Elasticsearch that the client is requesting
|
|
``7.x`` version of request and response bodies. This allows for
|
|
upgrading from 7.x to 8.x version of Elasticsearch without upgrading
|
|
everything at once. Elasticsearch should be upgraded first after
|
|
the compatibility header is configured and clients should be upgraded
|
|
second.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
|
|
|
|
client = Elasticsearch("http://...", headers={"accept": "application/vnd.elasticsearch+json; compatible-with=7"})
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to have the client emit the header without configuring ``headers`` you
|
|
can use the environment variable ``ELASTIC_CLIENT_APIVERSIONING=1``.
