Creating type in ES

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello ,
I am new to Elasticsearch. I have created index.
And Now adding type and document.
But getting error.
{"error":"no handler found for uri [/my_first_index/message] and method [POST]"}
Entering this command
curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9200/my_first_index/message" -d'{"text":"Hello World!"}'

Please share any configuration setting if needed.
Please help.

Thank you

Hi @smitak Welcome to the community.

First you should read this Removal of Types in detail.

Summary : there is no more setting the field _type to anything other than _doc if you want to indicate a type for a document then you would simply add your own type field

example

POST /my_first_index/_doc
{
  "type" : "message",
  "text": "Hello World!"
}

curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9200/my_first_index/_doc" -d'{"type":"message","text":"Hello World!"}'

Something like that:

GET /indexname/_search
{
   "query": {
     "match": {
       "content": "text you are searching for"
     }
   }
}

But if you are looking to a complete User Interface for end users, I'd recommend using Workplace Search (Workplace Search settings — FSCrawler 2.10-SNAPSHOT documentation). It comes with a full UI.

I did a demo of this recently at: https://speaker.pilato.fr/64HZzX/indexing-your-office-documents-with-elastic-stack-and-fscrawler

17

Yes sir I have done it.
Thanks a lot.

18

yes sir . I will look into it.
I want to add boolean query for search keywords now.

Thank you So much.
