Connecting to an Elasticsearch cluster

Elasticsearch is a well known full text search engine and NoSQL datastore.

In this guide, we will see how you can get your REST services to interact with an Elasticsearch cluster.

Quarkus provides two ways of accessing Elasticsearch:

The lower level REST Client
The Elasticsearch Java client

A third Quarkus extension for the "high level REST Client" used to exist, but was removed as this client has been deprecated by Elastic and has some licensing issues.

Requisitos previos

To complete this guide, you need:

Roughly 15 minutes
An IDE
JDK 17+ installed with JAVA_HOME configured appropriately
Apache Maven 3.9.9
Optionally the Quarkus CLI if you want to use it
Optionally Mandrel or GraalVM installed and configured appropriately if you want to build a native executable (or Docker if you use a native container build)
Elasticsearch installed or Docker installed

Arquitectura

The application built in this guide is quite simple: the user can add elements in a list using a form and the list is updated.

All the information between the browser and the server is formatted as JSON.

The elements are stored in Elasticsearch.

Creación del proyecto Maven

En primer lugar, necesitamos un nuevo proyecto. Cree un nuevo proyecto con el siguiente comando:

CLI

quarkus create app org.acme:elasticsearch-quickstart \
    --extension='rest-jackson,elasticsearch-rest-client' \
    --no-code
cd elasticsearch-quickstart

To create a Gradle project, add the --gradle or --gradle-kotlin-dsl option.

For more information about how to install and use the Quarkus CLI, see the Quarkus CLI guide.

Maven

mvn io.quarkus.platform:quarkus-maven-plugin:3.17.4:create \
    -DprojectGroupId=org.acme \
    -DprojectArtifactId=elasticsearch-quickstart \
    -Dextensions='rest-jackson,elasticsearch-rest-client' \
    -DnoCode
cd elasticsearch-quickstart

To create a Gradle project, add the -DbuildTool=gradle or -DbuildTool=gradle-kotlin-dsl option.

For Windows users:

If using cmd, (don’t use backward slash \ and put everything on the same line)
If using Powershell, wrap -D parameters in double quotes e.g. "-DprojectArtifactId=elasticsearch-quickstart"

This command generates a Maven structure importing the Quarkus REST (formerly RESTEasy Reactive), Jackson, and Elasticsearch low level REST client extensions.

The Elasticsearch low level REST client comes with the quarkus-elasticsearch-rest-client extension that has been added to your build file.

If you want to use the Elasticsearch Java client instead, replace the quarkus-elasticsearch-rest-client extension by the quarkus-elasticsearch-java-client extension.

We use the rest-jackson extension here and not the JSON-B variant because we will use the Vert.x JsonObject helper to serialize/deserialize our objects to/from Elasticsearch and it uses Jackson under the hood.

To add the extensions to an existing project, follow the instructions below.

For the Elasticsearch low level REST client, add the following dependency to your build file:

pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
    <artifactId>quarkus-elasticsearch-rest-client</artifactId>
</dependency>

build.gradle

implementation("io.quarkus:quarkus-elasticsearch-rest-client")

For the Elasticsearch Java client, add the following dependency to your build file:

pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
    <artifactId>quarkus-elasticsearch-java-client</artifactId>
</dependency>

build.gradle

implementation("io.quarkus:quarkus-elasticsearch-java-client")

Creating your first JSON REST service

In this example, we will create an application to manage a list of fruits.

First, let’s create the Fruit bean as follows:

package org.acme.elasticsearch;

public class Fruit {
    public String id;
    public String name;
    public String color;
}

Nothing fancy. One important thing to note is that having a default constructor is required by the JSON serialization layer.

Now create a org.acme.elasticsearch.FruitService that will be the business layer of our application and will store/load the fruits from the Elasticsearch instance. Here we use the low level REST client, if you want to use the Java API client instead, follow the instructions in the Using the Elasticsearch Java Client paragraph instead.

package org.acme.elasticsearch;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

import io.vertx.core.json.JsonObject;

@ApplicationScoped
public class FruitService {
    @Inject
    RestClient restClient; (1)

    public void index(Fruit fruit) throws IOException {
        Request request = new Request(
                "PUT",
                "/fruits/_doc/" + fruit.id); (2)
        request.setJsonEntity(JsonObject.mapFrom(fruit).toString()); (3)
        restClient.performRequest(request); (4)
    }

    public void index(List<Fruit> list) throws IOException {

        var entityList = new ArrayList<JsonObject>();

        for (var fruit : list) {

            entityList.add(new JsonObject().put("index", new JsonObject()(5)
                    .put("_index", "fruits").put("_id", fruit.id)));
            entityList.add(JsonObject.mapFrom(fruit));
        }

        Request request = new Request(
                "POST", "fruits/_bulk?pretty");
        request.setEntity(new StringEntity(
                toNdJsonString(entityList),(6)
                ContentType.create("application/x-ndjson")));(7)
        restClient.performRequest(request);
    }

    public void delete(List<String> identityList) throws IOException {

        var entityList = new ArrayList<JsonObject>();

        for (var id : identityList) {
            entityList.add(new JsonObject().put("delete",
                    new JsonObject().put("_index", "fruits").put("_id", id)));(8)
        }

        Request request = new Request(
                "POST", "fruits/_bulk?pretty");
        request.setEntity(new StringEntity(
                toNdJsonString(entityList),
                ContentType.create("application/x-ndjson")));
        restClient.performRequest(request);
    }

    public Fruit get(String id) throws IOException {
        Request request = new Request(
                "GET",
                "/fruits/_doc/" + id);
        Response response = restClient.performRequest(request);
        String responseBody = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
        JsonObject json = new JsonObject(responseBody); (9)
        return json.getJsonObject("_source").mapTo(Fruit.class);
    }

    public List<Fruit> searchByColor(String color) throws IOException {
        return search("color", color);
    }

    public List<Fruit> searchByName(String name) throws IOException {
        return search("name", name);
    }

    private List<Fruit> search(String term, String match) throws IOException {
        Request request = new Request(
                "GET",
                "/fruits/_search");
        //construct a JSON query like {"query": {"match": {"<term>": "<match"}}
        JsonObject termJson = new JsonObject().put(term, match);
        JsonObject matchJson = new JsonObject().put("match", termJson);
        JsonObject queryJson = new JsonObject().put("query", matchJson);
        request.setJsonEntity(queryJson.encode());
        Response response = restClient.performRequest(request);
        String responseBody = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());

        JsonObject json = new JsonObject(responseBody);
        JsonArray hits = json.getJsonObject("hits").getJsonArray("hits");
        List<Fruit> results = new ArrayList<>(hits.size());
        for (int i = 0; i < hits.size(); i++) {
            JsonObject hit = hits.getJsonObject(i);
            Fruit fruit = hit.getJsonObject("_source").mapTo(Fruit.class);
            results.add(fruit);
        }
        return results;
    }

    private static String toNdJsonString(List<JsonObject> objects) {
        return objects.stream()
                .map(JsonObject::encode)
                .collect(Collectors.joining("\n", "", "\n"));
    }
}

1	We inject an Elasticsearch low level `RestClient` into our service.
2	We create an Elasticsearch request.
3	We use Vert.x `JsonObject` to serialize the object before sending it to Elasticsearch, you can use whatever you want to serialize your objects to JSON.
4	We send the request (indexing request here) to Elasticsearch.
5	As we `index` collection of objects we should use `index`, `create` or `update` action.
6	We use `toNdJsonString(entityList)` call to produce output like below `{"index", {"_index" : "fruits", "_id", "1"}} {"id": "1", "name": "apple", "color": "red"} ... ... ... ... {"create", {"_index" : "fruits", "_id", "N"}} {"id": "N", "name": "dragonfruit", "color": "pink"}`
7	Pass the content type that is expected by the search backend for bulk requests.
8	The bulk API’s delete operation JSON already contains all the required information; hence, there is no request body following this operation in the Bulk API request body. `{"delete", {"_index" : "fruits", "_id", "1"}} {"delete", {"_index" : "fruits", "_id", "2"}} ... ... ... ... {"delete", {"_index" : "fruits", "_id", "N"}}`
9	In order to deserialize the object from Elasticsearch, we again use Vert.x JsonObject.

Now, create the org.acme.elasticsearch.FruitResource class as follows:

package org.acme.elasticsearch;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URI;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.UUID;

import jakarta.inject.Inject;
import jakarta.ws.rs.GET;
import jakarta.ws.rs.POST;
import jakarta.ws.rs.DELETE;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Path;
import jakarta.ws.rs.PathParam;
import jakarta.ws.rs.QueryParam;
import jakarta.ws.rs.core.Response;
import jakarta.ws.rs.BadRequestException;

@Path("/fruits")
public class FruitResource {

    @Inject
    FruitService fruitService;

    @POST
    public Response index(Fruit fruit) throws IOException {
        if (fruit.id == null) {
            fruit.id = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
        }
        fruitService.index(fruit);
        return Response.created(URI.create("/fruits/" + fruit.id)).build();
    }

    @Path("bulk")
    @DELETE
    public Response delete(List<String> identityList) throws IOException {
        fruitService.delete(identityList);
        return Response.ok().build();
    }

    @Path("bulk")
    @POST
    public Response index(List<Fruit> list) throws IOException {
        fruitService.index(list);
        return Response.ok().build();
    }

    @GET
    @Path("/{id}")
    public Fruit get(String id) throws IOException {
        return fruitService.get(id);
    }

    @GET
    @Path("/search")
    public List<Fruit> search(@RestQuery String name, @RestQuery String color) throws IOException {
        if (name != null) {
            return fruitService.searchByName(name);
        } else if (color != null) {
            return fruitService.searchByColor(color);
        } else {
            throw new BadRequestException("Should provide name or color query parameter");
        }
    }
}

The implementation is pretty straightforward and you just need to define your endpoints using the Jakarta REST annotations and use the FruitService to list/add new fruits.

Configuring Elasticsearch

The main property to configure is the URL to connect to the Elasticsearch cluster.

For a typical clustered Elasticsearch service, a sample configuration would look like the following:

# configure the Elasticsearch client for a cluster of two nodes
quarkus.elasticsearch.hosts = elasticsearch1:9200,elasticsearch2:9200

In our case, we are using a single instance running on localhost:

# configure the Elasticsearch client for a single instance on localhost
quarkus.elasticsearch.hosts = localhost:9200

If you need a more advanced configuration, you can find the comprehensive list of supported configuration properties at the end of this guide.

Servicios de desarrollo

Quarkus supports a feature called Dev Services that allows you to start various containers without any config. In the case of Elasticsearch, this support extends to the default Elasticsearch connection. What that means practically is that, if you have not configured quarkus.elasticsearch.hosts, Quarkus will automatically start an Elasticsearch container when running tests or dev mode, and automatically configure the connection.

When running the production version of the application, the Elasticsearch connection needs to be configured as usual, so if you want to include a production database config in your application.properties and continue to use Dev Services we recommend that you use the %prod. profile to define your Elasticsearch settings.

For more information you can read the Dev Services for Elasticsearch guide.

Programmatically Configuring Elasticsearch

On top of the parametric configuration, you can also programmatically apply additional configuration to the client by implementing a RestClientBuilder.HttpClientConfigCallback and annotating it with ElasticsearchClientConfig. You may provide multiple implementations and configuration provided by each implementation will be applied in a randomly ordered cascading manner.

For example, when accessing an Elasticsearch cluster that is set up for TLS on the HTTP layer, the client needs to trust the certificate that Elasticsearch is using. The following is an example of setting up the client to trust the CA that has signed the certificate that Elasticsearch is using, when that CA certificate is available in a PKCS#12 keystore.

import io.quarkus.elasticsearch.restclient.lowlevel.ElasticsearchClientConfig;
import org.apache.http.impl.nio.client.HttpAsyncClientBuilder;
import org.apache.http.ssl.SSLContextBuilder;
import org.apache.http.ssl.SSLContexts;
import org.elasticsearch.client.RestClientBuilder;

import jakarta.enterprise.context.Dependent;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLContext;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
import java.security.KeyStore;

@ElasticsearchClientConfig
public class SSLContextConfigurator implements RestClientBuilder.HttpClientConfigCallback {
    @Override
    public HttpAsyncClientBuilder customizeHttpClient(HttpAsyncClientBuilder httpClientBuilder) {
        try {
            String keyStorePass = "password-for-keystore";
            Path trustStorePath = Paths.get("/path/to/truststore.p12");
            KeyStore truststore = KeyStore.getInstance("pkcs12");
            try (InputStream is = Files.newInputStream(trustStorePath)) {
                truststore.load(is, keyStorePass.toCharArray());
            }
            SSLContextBuilder sslBuilder = SSLContexts.custom()
                    .loadTrustMaterial(truststore, null);
            SSLContext sslContext = sslBuilder.build();
            httpClientBuilder.setSSLContext(sslContext);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }

        return httpClientBuilder;
    }
}

See Elasticsearch documentation for more details on this particular example.

Classes marked with @ElasticsearchClientConfig are made application scoped CDI beans by default. You can override the scope at the class level if you prefer a different scope.

Running an Elasticsearch cluster

As by default, the Elasticsearch client is configured to access a local Elasticsearch cluster on port 9200 (the default Elasticsearch port), if you have a local running instance on this port, there is nothing more to do before being able to test it!

If you want to use Docker to run an Elasticsearch instance, you can use the following command to launch one:

docker run --name elasticsearch  -e "discovery.type=single-node" -e "ES_JAVA_OPTS=-Xms512m -Xmx512m"\
       -e "cluster.routing.allocation.disk.threshold_enabled=false" -e "xpack.security.enabled=false"\
       --rm -p 9200:9200 docker.io/elastic/elasticsearch:8.15.0

Ejecución de la aplicación

Let’s start our application in dev mode:

CLI

quarkus dev

Maven

./mvnw quarkus:dev

Gradle

./gradlew --console=plain quarkusDev

You can add new fruits to the list via the following curl command:

curl localhost:8080/fruits -d '{"name": "bananas", "color": "yellow"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"

And search for fruits by name or color via the following curl command:

curl localhost:8080/fruits/search?color=yellow

Using the Elasticsearch Java Client

Here is a version of the FruitService using the Elasticsearch Java Client instead of the low level one:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.StringReader;

        IndexRequest<Fruit> request = IndexRequest.of(  (2)
            b -> b.index("fruits")
                .id(fruit.id)
                .document(fruit)); (3)

                    .index(idx -> idx.index("fruits").id(fruit.id).document(fruit)));
        }

        BulkResponse result = client.bulk(br.build());

        if (result.errors()) {
            throw new RuntimeException("The indexing operation encountered errors.");
        }
    }

    public void delete(List<String> list) throws IOException {

        BulkRequest.Builder br = new BulkRequest.Builder();

        for (var id : list) {
            br.operations(op -> op.delete(idx -> idx.index("fruits").id(id)));
        }

        BulkResponse result = client.bulk(br.build());

        if (result.errors()) {
            throw new RuntimeException("The indexing operation encountered errors.");
        }
    }

    public Fruit get(String id) throws IOException {
        GetRequest getRequest = GetRequest.of(
            b -> b.index("fruits")
                .id(id));
        GetResponse<Fruit> getResponse = client.get(getRequest, Fruit.class);
        if (getResponse.found()) {
            return getResponse.source();
        }
        return null;
    }

    public List<Fruit> searchByColor(String color) throws IOException {
        return search("color", color);
    }

    public List<Fruit> searchByName(String name) throws IOException {
        return search("name", name);
    }

    private List<Fruit> search(String term, String match) throws IOException {
        SearchRequest searchRequest = SearchRequest.of(
            b -> b.index("fruits")
                .query(QueryBuilders.match().field(term).query(FieldValue.of(match)).build()._toQuery()));

        SearchResponse<Fruit> searchResponse = client.search(searchRequest, Fruit.class);
        HitsMetadata<Fruit> hits = searchResponse.hits();
        return hits.hits().stream().map(hit -> hit.source()).collect(Collectors.toList());
    }
}

1	We inject an `ElasticsearchClient` inside the service.
2	We create an Elasticsearch index request using a builder.
3	We directly pass the object to the request as the Java API client has a serialization layer.
4	We send the request to Elasticsearch.

Hibernate Search Elasticsearch

Quarkus supports Hibernate Search with Elasticsearch via the quarkus-hibernate-search-orm-elasticsearch extension.

Hibernate Search Elasticsearch allows to synchronize your Jakarta Persistence entities to an Elasticsearch cluster and offers a way to query your Elasticsearch cluster using the Hibernate Search API.

If you are interested in it, please consult the Hibernate Search with Elasticsearch guide.

Cluster Health Check

If you are using the quarkus-smallrye-health extension, both extensions will automatically add a readiness health check to validate the health of the cluster.

So when you access the /q/health/ready endpoint of your application, you will have information about the cluster status. It uses the cluster health endpoint, the check will be down if the status of the cluster is red, or the cluster is not available.

This behavior can be disabled by setting the quarkus.elasticsearch.health.enabled property to false in your application.properties.

Building a native executable

You can use both clients in a native executable.

You can build a native executable with the usual command:

CLI

quarkus build --native

Maven

./mvnw install -Dnative

Gradle

./gradlew build -Dquarkus.native.enabled=true

Running it is as simple as executing ./target/elasticsearch-low-level-client-quickstart-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-runner.

You can then point your browser to http://localhost:8080/fruits.html and use your application.

Conclusion

Accessing an Elasticsearch cluster from the low level REST client or the Elasticsearch Java client is easy with Quarkus as it provides easy configuration, CDI integration and native support for it.

The value of the quarkus-dev-service-elasticsearch label attached to the started container.

This property is used when shared is set to true. In this case, before starting a container, Dev Services for Elasticsearch looks for a container with the quarkus-dev-service-elasticsearch label set to the configured value. If found, it will use this container instead of starting a new one. Otherwise it starts a new container with the quarkus-dev-service-elasticsearch label set to the specified value.

This property is used when you need multiple shared Elasticsearch servers.

Environment variable: QUARKUS_ELASTICSEARCH_DEVSERVICES_SERVICE_NAME

string

quarkus.elasticsearch.devservices.container-env."environment-variable-name"

Environment variables that are passed to the container.

Environment variable: QUARKUS_ELASTICSEARCH_DEVSERVICES_CONTAINER_ENV__ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_NAME_

Map<String,String>

quarkus.elasticsearch.devservices.reuse

Whether to keep Dev Service containers running after a dev mode session or test suite execution to reuse them in the next dev mode session or test suite execution.

Within a dev mode session or test suite execution, Quarkus will always reuse Dev Services as long as their configuration (username, password, environment, port bindings, …) did not change. This feature is specifically about keeping containers running when Quarkus is not running to reuse them across runs.

This feature needs to be enabled explicitly in testcontainers.properties, may require changes to how you configure data initialization in dev mode and tests, and may leave containers running indefinitely, forcing you to stop and remove them manually. See this section of the documentation for more information.

This configuration property is set to true by default, so it is mostly useful to disable reuse, if you enabled it in testcontainers.properties but only want to use it for some of your Quarkus applications.

Environment variable: QUARKUS_ELASTICSEARCH_DEVSERVICES_REUSE

boolean

true

About the Duration format

To write duration values, use the standard java.time.Duration format. See the Duration#parse() Java API documentation for more information.

You can also use a simplified format, starting with a number:

If the value is only a number, it represents time in seconds.
If the value is a number followed by ms, it represents time in milliseconds.

In other cases, the simplified format is translated to the java.time.Duration format for parsing:

If the value is a number followed by h, m, or s, it is prefixed with PT.
If the value is a number followed by d, it is prefixed with P.
