* To import raw JSON data files to ElasticSearch using Python in one line of commands

### Installation

* ```pip install jsonpyes```

#### Instructions:
There are 3 proccesses of importing raw JSON data to ElasticSearch
1. Only validating raw JSON data
2. Without validating ,just import data to ElasticSearch
3. After validating successfully, then import data to ElasticSearch


##### 1. Only validating
* ```python jsonpyes.py --data raw_data.json --check```

* If the json data file is valid:

* If the json data file is invalid:

##### 2. Only importing without validating
* Notice: If the raw JSON data file is invalid, ElasticSearch will not import it.
* ```python jsonpyes.py --data raw_data.json --bulk http://localhost:9200 --import --index myindex2 --type mytype2```
* Or enable multi-threads ```python jsonpyes.py --data raw_data.json --bulk http://localhost:9200 --import --index myindex2 --type mytype2 --thread 8```

** jsonpyes supports multi-threads when importing data to elasticsearch

> As you can see these two containers have same docs loaded, if we use **_--thread 8_** it could be slightly faster.
That really depends on your computer/server resources.
This was tested on a 4GB RAM / 2.4Ghz intel i5 Linux x64 laptop system.

##### 3. Both validating and importing
* ```python jsonpyes.py --data raw_data.json --bulk http://localhost:9200 --import --index myindex1 --type mytype1 --check```
