Sounds like you're trying to use perl to interact with Elasticsearch and you're missing the Search::Elasticsearch module in your `@INC` paths. If you have `cpanm` on your system, you can install via `cpanm Search::Elasticsearch`. You may be interested in the Elasticsearch perl overview at [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/perl-api/current/index.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/perl-api/current/index.html) and the full documentation at [https://metacpan.org/pod/Search::Elasticsearch](https://metacpan.org/pod/Search::Elasticsearch)
