Spring data elasticsearch unable to connect to elasticsearch instance

Question

How to understand a spring-doc? The example provided doesn't work.

I am unable to bind together the pieces to form a basic example of saving and querying elasticsearch using Spring-Data-Elastic search. Can someone, point to some resource which actually works?

All classes are in the package elasticsearch. Anyhow here is my code:

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {

    @Autowired
    private MovieRepository repository;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }

    public void run(String... args) throws Exception {

        // save a couple of movies
        repository.save(new Movie("tt1979320", "Rush", 2013, Arrays.asList("Action", "Biography", "Drama")));
        repository.save(new Movie("tt0111161", "The Shawshank Redemption", 1994, Arrays.asList("Crime", "Drama")));


    }
}

Pojo

@Document(indexName = "moviedb", type = "movie")
public class Movie {

    @Id
    private String id;

    private String name;

    private Integer year;

    private List<String> genre;

    public Movie() {
    }

    public Movie(String id, String name, Integer year, List<String> genre) {
        super();
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
        this.year = year;
        this.genre = genre;
    }

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public Integer getYear() {
        return year;
    }

    public void setYear(Integer year) {
        this.year = year;
    }

    public List<String> getGenre() {
        return genre;
    }

    public void setGenre(List<String> genre) {
        this.genre = genre;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Movie [id=" + id + ", name=" + name + ", year=" + year + ", genre=" + genre + "]";
    }

}

Spring Data repo for ElasticSearch

@Repository
public interface MovieRepository extends ElasticsearchRepository<Movie, String>{

    List<Movie> findByName(String name);
    List<Movie> findByYear(Integer year);
    List<Movie> findByGenre(List<String> genre);

}

Service class

@Service
public class MovieService{

    @Autowired
    private MovieRepository repository;

    public List<Movie> findByName(String name) {
        return repository.findByName(name);
    }

    public List<Movie> findByYear(Integer year) {
        return repository.findByYear(year);
    }

    public List<Movie> findByGenre(List<String> genre) {
        return repository.findByGenre(genre);
    }

}

Some examples have created an Elasticsearch template with this. I haven't quite understood why is the Elasticsearch template required and how to create one.

I used elasticsearch 1.7 with this and received the following error:

Running with elasticsearch 2.3, I am getting the following error:

To me it seems like the clusternames do not match. Try this parameters:

Properties in YAML Syntax:

### elastic properties
spring.data:
  elasticsearch:
    cluster-name: yourclustername
    cluster-nodes: localhost:9300
    repositories.enabled: true

youclustername has to match the clustername you gave in the elasticsearch.yml config on paramaeter "cluster.name:".

The cluster-nodes must match the "network.host" from elasticsearch.yml (+ the port which is default 9300)

Next you need to scan for the repositories like this:

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableElasticsearchRepositories(basePackages = "elasticsearch")
public class Application {
...

I have put my elasticsearch properties in application.properties. How can I specify my clustername in application.properties?

Dennis Ich Over a year ago

Just concat the propertypaths like this: spring.data.elasticsearch.cluster-name=yourclustername

Amriteya Over a year ago

Your solution is successful and I am able to register index in elasticsearch. But I see no data or mapping on http://localhost:9200/moviedb/_mappin/movie I see the following data {"moviedb_test":{"mappings":{"movie":{}}}}

Dennis Ich Over a year ago

The mappings are created when the first data comes in. So You have to index stuff first. Alternatively you can specify the mappings yourself (@Mapping(mappingPath = "/mappings/movie.json") on document Level)
