Index using Elasticsearch.py

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I want to reindex some data from other server to my new server. I want to use python script for this.
I use the elasticsearch.py plugin.

Does anyone here tried this?

I have a defficulty with regards to the body of the document.

index = es_dest.index(
 index = 'new_index',
 doc_type = log,
 id = 'asdadas',
 body = data_body
)

data_body variable is the one that i got inside the ['hits']['hits']

Hi @jogoinar10,

if your target cluster is on a somewhat recent version of Elasticsearch (5.0 or better), you can use reindex-from-remote without writing any code. Alternatively, there is the Reindex helper in the Elasticsearch Python client which should greatly simplify your task.

You can also use Elasticsearch Curator for this, or its Reindex API, which is Python.
