koansys.recipe.elasticsearch 1.0.2

A brief documentation

This recipe takes a number of options:

url

The URL to download the jar.

Tests

We will define a buildout template used by the recipe:

>>> buildout_cfg = """
... [buildout]
... parts = elasticsearch
...
... [elasticsearch]
... recipe = koansys.recipe.elasticsearch
... url = http://github.com/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-0.13.0.tar.gz
... """

We’ll start by creating a buildout:

>>> import os.path
>>> write('buildout.cfg', buildout_cfg)

Running the buildout gives us:

>>> output = system(buildout)
>>> 'koansys.recipe.elasticsearch: downloading elasticsearch distribution...' in output
True

Check whether the binaries are copied:

>>> set(os.listdir('bin')).issuperset(['elasticsearch'])
True

A start script with the format ‘start_PART-NAME_mongod.sh’ should be generated.

>>> 'start_elasticsearch.sh' in os.listdir('bin')
True

It is possible to change the name of this start script with the ‘script_name’ option. Furthermore all options of mongod (version v1.6.0) are supported via buildout options. A more comprehensive recipe could be for example:

>>> buildout_cfg = """
... [buildout]
... parts = elasticsearch.sh
... [elasticsearch]
... recipe = koansys.recipe.elasticsearch
... url = http://github.com/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-0.13.0.tar.gz
... script_name = start_es.sh
... quiet=true
... fork=true
... logpath=${buildout:parts-directory}/elasticsearch/log
... dbpath=${buildout:parts-directory}/elasticsearch/data
... """
