Create an index
editCreate an index
editThe index operations are all contained under a distinct namespace, separated from other methods that are on the root client object. As an example, let’s create a new index:
$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
$params = [
'index' => 'my_index'
];
// Create the index
$response = $client->indices()->create($params);
You can specify any parameters that would normally be included in a new index creation API. All parameters that would normally go in the request body are located in the body parameter:
$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
$params = [
'index' => 'my_index',
'body' => [
'settings' => [
'number_of_shards' => 3,
'number_of_replicas' => 2
],
'mappings' => [
'my_type' => [
'_source' => [
'enabled' => true
],
'properties' => [
'first_name' => [
'type' => 'keyword',
'analyzer' => 'standard'
],
'age' => [
'type' => 'integer'
]
]
]
]
]
];
// Create the index with mappings and settings now
$response = $client->indices()->create($params);
