Hello everyone!,

I am working on my final project work and I have to use ElasticSearch but I  
am new so I don`t have enough idea, and I am running out of time...

I have installed the river twitter for elasticsearch and I collect  
information from there depending on some search terms. What I want to know  
is how I can dump the collected information to a file. For example .txt, to  
process it later.

What I have done is to colect all information from the river (with the code  
attached putting it on a. Sh) and save the information in a fime using \>\>  
file.txt

The code that I use to get the information is this:

-XPOST curl -d '  
{

"query":

{

"query\_string":

{

query ":" \* "/ / To catch all the tweets

}

}

} '

The output is the set of tweets with a lot of information like post id,  
name, text, language...all mixed.

I wonder if you could tell me another option easier or with the output  
clearer.

Regards, and thank you very much!

You should use scan and scroll API because the query will just return by default the 10 more relevant docs, not the whole resultset.  
Though it won't format your result. You need to parse JSON on your client and render it as you need.

Thank you David,

I will try it now, but I'm worried because I don't have to much idea about  
using this program, but I will try tu use that API, and I keep you informed.

Than you!!! 🙂
