Features

• Translating basic Python data types to and from JSON

• Configurable automatic discovery of cluster nodes

• Persistent connections

• Load balancing (with pluggable selection strategy) across available nodes

• Failed connection penalization (time based - failed connections won’t be retried until a timeout is reached)

• Support for TLS and HTTP authentication

• Thread safety across requests

• Pluggable architecture

• Helper functions for idiomatically using APIs together

Installation

Install the elasticsearch-serverless package with pip:

Documentation

Documentation for the client is available on elastic.co and Read the Docs.

Quick Start

# Import the client from the 'elasticsearch' module
>>> from elasticsearch_serverless import Elasticsearch

# Instantiate a client instance
>>> client = Elasticsearch("http://localhost:9200")

# Call an API, in this example `info()`
>>> resp = client.info()

# View the result
>>> resp
{
  "name" : "instance-name",
  "cluster_name" : "cluster-name",
  "cluster_uuid" : "cluster-uuid",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "7.14.0",
    ...
  },
  "tagline" : "You know, for Search"
}

You can read more about configuring the client in the documentation.
