Elasticsearch 'onReady'

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I am using foreman to start numerous subsystems such as mongodb,
elasticsearch, redis and node. With node, I am using the Elasticsearch.js
client.
I would like to be able to verify that elasticsearch is ready for use.
Should I be doing something like a cluster health call like this?

        esClient.cluster.health({waitForStatus:'green'}, function(err){
            callback(err)
        })

what is the best way to verify that elasticsearch is ready for use and its
indexes can be accessed?

thanks

Wait for green works. Its a really really common idiom.
