How to use Bulk API to store the keywords in ES by using Python

Question

I have to store some message in ElasticSearch integrate with my python program. Now what I try to store the message is:

d={\"message\":\"this is message\"}
         


        

Answer 1

There are two options which I can think of at the moment:

1. Define index name and document type with each entity:

es_client = Elasticsearch()

body = []
for entry in entries:
    body.append({'index': {'_index': index, '_type': 'doc', '_id': entry['id']}})
    body.append(entry)

response = es_client.bulk(body=body)

2. Provide the default index and document type with the method:

es_client = Elasticsearch()

body = []
for entry in entries:
    body.append({'index': {'_id': entry['id']}})
    body.append(entry)

response = es_client.bulk(index='my_index', doc_type='doc', body=body)

Works with:

ES version:6.4.0

ES python lib: 6.3.1
