An easy way to use the official Elastic Search client in your Laravel 5 or Lumen applications.
Install the cviebrock/laravel-elasticsearch
package via composer:
composer require cviebrock/laravel-elasticsearch
Add the service provider and facade to config/app.php
:
'providers' => [
...
Cviebrock\LaravelElasticsearch\ServiceProvider::class,
]
'aliases' => [
...
'Elasticsearch' => Cviebrock\LaravelElasticsearch\Facade::class,
]
Publish the configuration file:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Cviebrock\LaravelElasticsearch\ServiceProvider"
After you publish the configuration file as suggested above, you may configure Elastic Search
by adding the following to laravel .env
file
ELASTICSEARCH_HOST=localhost
ELASTICSEARCH_PORT=9200
ELASTICSEARCH_SCHEME=http
ELASTICSEARCH_USER=
ELASTICSEARCH_PASS=
If you work with Lumen, please register the LumenServiceProvider in bootstrap/app.php
:
$app->register(Cviebrock\LaravelElasticsearch\LumenServiceProvider::class);
And manually copy the configuration file to your application.
Note: don't forget to register your elasticsearch.php config in bootstrap/app.php
$app->configure('elasticsearch');
The Elasticsearch
facade is just an entry point into the ES client,
so previously you might have used:
$data = [
'body' => [
'testField' => 'abc'
],
'index' => 'my_index',
'type' => 'my_type',
'id' => 'my_id',
];
$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
$return = $client->index($data);
You can now replace those last two lines with simply:
$return = Elasticsearch::index($data);
That will run the command on the default connection. You can run a command on
any connection (see the defaultConnection
setting and connections
array in
the configuration file).
$return = Elasticsearch::connection('connectionName')->index($data);
Lumen users who aren't using facades will need to use dependency injection or the application container in order to get the ES service object:
$elasticSearch = $this->app('elasticsearch');
(Of course, DI and the application container work for Laravel as well.)
