Index binary files (PDF, ...)

Frifri · July 7, 2011, 12:37pm

Hey everybody,

at the moment I'm testing ES for the use as an indexing and storaging
solution. I use the following general settings with analysis-icu and
mapper-attachments plugins enabled:

curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/testindex/' -d '{
"settings" : {
"index" : {
"number_of_shards" : 2,
"number_of_replicas" : 0
}
}
}'

and the following mapping for pdf indexing:

curl -XPUT localhost:9200/testindex/testmap/_mapping -d '

    {
            "testmap": {
                    "properties" : {
                            "files" : { "type" : "attachment" }
                    }

      }
    }

'

Afterwards, i curl a merged XML-File to ES, in which the content is
created by "base64 SOURCE.pdf > TARGET"

{

"files" : [
{
"_content_type" : "application/pdf",
"_name" : " LeParfait_disclaimer_fr.pdf",
"content" : " ...base64-encoded content.."
}
]
}

Unfortunately, the content field does not contain any keyword from the
pdf (just the long string) and every search returns nothing. I think,
I misunderstood something - I'm quite new to JSON/Java and similar
technique.

Thanks in advance

Frifri

Hi,

can you double check that the attachment plugin is installed correctly?

make sure both tika and mapper attachment jar files are in <ES_HOME>/lib
folder

For example if you user 0.17.0-SNAPSHOT you should see the following two
files in lib folder:
elasticsearch-mapper-attachments-0.17.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
tika-app-0.9.jar

is attachment plugin recognized when ES startup?

You can see this in log file. Navigate to <ES_HOME>/logs and check ES
startup log records sequence. You should see something like

[2011-06-22 11:44:38,456][INFO ][node ] [Amber Hunt]
{elasticsearch/0.17.0-SNAPSHOT/2011-06-21T13:56:26}[6144]: initializing ...

Once we make sure that these two things are ok then we can look at mappings
and searching in detail

Thanks you very much for your support.

I use the precompiled ES 0.16.2 and the two files weren't there, but I
found them to be in ESHOME/plugins/mapper-attachments/ and just copied
them to lib/.
Perhaps that helps somehow?!

And both plugins seem to be properly installed:

Hi,

You can either install plugins manually by copying these files to the lib
folder or you can use bin/plugin install command as explained here:

Once you have both plugins correctly installed and ES is loading them during
startup then you should be ready to use them. Did you try it again? What was
the result now? Any exceptions in log files when indexing attachments or
when searching them?

Hey,

1.) what I meant to say was that I had both plugins already installed
with the command you cited (bin/plugin install ....) and they seem to
be loaded as I've shown above. Nevertheless, the associated jar-files
are not in the lib/-directory, only in plugins/mapper-attachments.
Do you think I have to manually move or copy them?

2.) And you are right, in the logfiles I get an error if I'm trying to
index a pdf-file:

[2011-07-07 15:53:30,296][DEBUG][action.index ] [test]

I normally do not use plugin script for installation because I directly copy
related jar files into lib folder. However, using plugin script is probably
better way and as long as you can see those plugins are loaded during node
startup then they you did good job (assuming you made sure you installed
plugins on ALL nodes in the cluster).

2.) And you are right, in the logfiles I get an error if I'm trying to
index a pdf-file:

So probably we should try to find a simple working example because from the
quick glance at your mapping file it looks fine to me. Again I assume that
you index your json document into /testindex/testmap/

Yeah, but at the moment I've really no clue. Isn't there any
possibility to verify whether the plugin is working or not? Or do you
have another idea what to try else?

Do you think I have to manually move or copy them?

I normally do not use plugin script for installation because I directly copy
related jar files into lib folder. However, using plugin script is probably
better way and as long as you can see those plugins are loaded during node
startup then they you did good job (assuming you made sure you installed
plugins on ALL nodes in the cluster).

2.) And you are right, in the logfiles I get an error if I'm trying to
index a pdf-file:

So probably we should try to find a simple working example because from the
quick glance at your mapping file it looks fine to me. Again I assume that
you index your json document into /testindex/testmap/

Hi,

make sure both tika and mapper attachment jar files are in

For example if you user 0.17.0-SNAPSHOT you should see the
following
two
files in lib folder:
elasticsearch-mapper-attachments-0.17.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
tika-app-0.9.jar

is attachment plugin recognized when ES startup?

You can see this in log file. Navigate to <ES_HOME>/logs and

Hey,

I tried your way and in general it works (means without error), but
the search returns still nothing.

So I verified row by row of your script and encountered that even
though perl is installed (sudo apt-get install perl), the row

coded=cat fn6742.pdf | perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print encode_base64($_)'

doesn't return any content stream. So I changed the row to:

coded=cat fn6742.pdf | base64 $_

and voilà, the variable "coded" contained the stream. Also the
indexing went well (according to logs) but there's still no result...

$ curl "${host}/_search?q=amplifier"
{"took":4,"timed_out":false,"_shards":{"total":3,"successful":
3,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":0,"max_score":null,"hits":}}

Perhaps the base64-command isn't compatible with the encoding needed
for ES?!

Hey,

sorry, there were some issues in the script. Fixed.

First issue was on the curl command (line 13) using "_mappings" instead of
"_mapping"
Second issue in the perl command, I was missing -n option. (line 29)
Then I added a refresh after indexing.
Finally, I enhanced mapping and the query to pull only the document title.

I normally do not use plugin script for installation because I

better way and as long as you can see those plugins are loaded

installed
plugins on ALL nodes in the cluster).

Hi,

make sure both tika and mapper attachment jar files are in

For example if you user 0.17.0-SNAPSHOT you should see the
following
two
files in lib folder:
elasticsearch-mapper-attachments-0.17.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

is attachment plugin recognized when ES startup?

You can see this in log file. Navigate to <ES_HOME>/logs and

This exception comes from Tika. Generally speaking, parsing PDF documents is
a pain for anybody, not only for Tika (or pdfbox which Tika delegates to).
So the chance is that Tika is hitting some issues with this particular
document. The question is if this is serious or not. Note that if you are
seeing this when parsing the document from my example then this PDF document
contains a lot of complex charts and tables with texts. Typically such
documents (highly technical product sheets) are generated automatically from
product data store and some level of formatting issues are probably expected
(but I am just guessing here).

Hey,

sorry, there were some issues in the script. Fixed.

First issue was on the curl command (line 13) using "_mappings" instead
of
"_mapping"
Second issue in the perl command, I was missing -n option. (line 29)
Then I added a refresh after indexing.
Finally, I enhanced mapping and the query to pull only the document

Hey,

I tried your way and in general it works (means without error), but
the search returns still nothing.

So I verified row by row of your script and encountered that even
though perl is installed (sudo apt-get install perl), the row

coded=cat fn6742.pdf | perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print encode_base64($_)'

doesn't return any content stream. So I changed the row to:

coded=cat fn6742.pdf | base64 $_

and voilà, the variable "coded" contained the stream. Also the
indexing went well (according to logs) but there's still no result...

$ curl "${host}/_search?q=amplifier"
{"took":4,"timed_out":false,"_shards":{"total":3,"successful":
3,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":0,"max_score":null,"hits":}}

Perhaps the base64-command isn't compatible with the encoding needed
for ES?!
