How to install a plugin

This repo contains a few ElasticSearch plugins. Each folder in the root is another plugin. To install:

First you need to locate the bin folder in your ES installation (henceforth $ES_BIN). This can be in one of two places:

1. If you installed ES as a service: /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin
2. If you downloaded the source: $SRC_ROOT/bin

Let's say you're trying to install a plugin in folder $PLUGIN_ROOT:

1. Start ElasticSearch
   • If ElasticSearch is a service, run service start elasticsearch
   • If you downloaded the source, run $ES_BIN/elasticsearch
2. (OPTIONAL) If you're reinsalling a plugin, first unistall it
   • Locate the name of the plugin. This should be in $PLUGIN_ROOT/plugin-descriptor.properties under the name variable. Let's call it $PLUGIN_NAME
   • $ES_BIN/plugin remove $PLUGIN_NAME
3. Install plugin
   • $ES_BIN/plugin install file://$PLUGIN_ROOT/out/artifacts/elasticsearch_analysis_sefaria_jar.zip (NOTE: this path needs to be absolute)
