Powershell module for Elasticsearch.

You can install the module from powershell gallery with the following command:

Install-Module Elastico

The current version of the module supports the following functionalities:

• list/add/remove indices
• list/add/remove repositories (for backup)
• list/add/remove snapshots (for backup)
• get cluster health
• get cluster info
• search
• get/set index settings

Documentation is available on github pages

The module supports versions 1, 2 and 5 (currently in alpha stage) of elasticsearch. As long as the server API can change between versions, for compatibility reasons, the cmdlets are specific to the single versions of elasticsearch.

So for example, instead of having a single Get-ElasticClusterHealt cmdlet, there are 3 cmdlets, more specifically:

• Get-ElasticV1ClusterHealth
• Get-ElasticV2ClusterHealth
• Get-ElasticV5ClusterHealth.

In order to avoid compatibility issues, you will need to know in advance the version of elasticsearch that you are dealing with, and use the relevant cmdlet.

Get-ElasticV2ClusterHealth -Node "http://localhost:9200"
