Question

I\'m trying to create an elasticsearch index with mappings using the official javascript client.

My code is as follows:

Answer 1

I tried same but got error from the name of index. aName is not valid, error was about the using lowercase index name. Then It created with mappings.

it.only('putMapping', function (done) {
    client.indices.create({
        index: "aname",
        body: {
            "mappings": {
                "aType": {
                    "properties": {
                        "aProp1": {"type": "string", "index": "not_analyzed"},
                        "aProp2": {"type": "string", "index": "not_analyzed"},
                        "aProp3": {"type": "string", "index": "not_analyzed"},
                        "aProp4": {"type": "string", "index": "not_analyzed"}
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }, function (err, resp, respcode) {
        console.log(err, resp, respcode);
    });
})

Output:

    path: '/aname',
    body: { mappings: { aType: [Object] } },
