salt.modules.elasticsearch

Elasticsearch - A distributed RESTful search and analytics server

Module to provide Elasticsearch compatibility to Salt (compatible with Elasticsearch version 1.5.2+)

New in version 2015.8.0.

depends:

elasticsearch-py

configuration:

This module accepts connection configuration details either as parameters or as configuration settings in /etc/salt/minion on the relevant minions:

elasticsearch:
  host: '10.10.10.100:9200'

elasticsearch-cluster:
  hosts:
    - '10.10.10.100:9200'
    - '10.10.10.101:9200'
    - '10.10.10.102:9200'

elasticsearch-extra:
  hosts:
    - '10.10.10.100:9200'
  use_ssl: True
  verify_certs: True
  ca_certs: /path/to/custom_ca_bundle.pem
  number_of_shards: 1
  number_of_replicas: 0
  functions_blacklist:
    - 'saltutil.find_job'
    - 'pillar.items'
    - 'grains.items'
  proxies:
    - http: http://proxy:3128
    - https: http://proxy:1080

When specifying proxies the requests backend will be used and the 'proxies' data structure is passed as-is to that module.

This data can also be passed into pillar. Options passed into opts will overwrite options passed into pillar.

Some functionality might be limited by elasticsearch-py and Elasticsearch server versions.
