Is there a way to have a native java script accessible in integration tests? In my integration tests I am creating a test node in the /tmp folder. I've tried copying the script to /tmp/plugins/scripts but that was quite hopeful and unfortunately does not work. Desperate for help.

I might be wrong but I think that scripts should be located in config/scripts, right? -- David Pilato | Technical Advocate | [Elasticsearch.com](http://Elasticsearch.com) @dadoonet | @elasticsearchfr Le 30 juillet 2014 à 11:31:10, Nick T ([nttodo22@gmail.com](mailto:nttodo22@gmail.com)) a écrit: Is there a way to have a native java script accessible in integration tests?

Hi, I have tried the same approach and it worked for me, meaning to copy the script I want to perform an integration test and run my IT. I do the following steps 1. Setup the required paths for elasticsearch final Settings settings = settingsBuilder() .put("http.enabled", "true") .put("path.conf", confDir) .put("path.data", dataDir) .put("path.work", workDir) .put("path.logs", logsDir) .... 1. copy your scripts to the appropriate location 2. fire up a local node node = nodeBuilder().local(true).settings(settings).clusterName(nodeName).node(); node.start(); Maybe you first start the node and then add the script, this might not work because i think es does a per minute scan for new scripts and the IT test does not allow this to happen, hence you should first copy your script and then start the node Hope it helps Thomas On Wednesday, 30 July 2014 12:31:06 UTC+3, Nick T wrote: > Is there a way to have a native java script accessible in integration > tests?

I have noticed that you mention native java script so you have implemented it as a plugin? if so try the following in your settings: final Settings settings = settingsBuilder() ... ``` .put("plugin.types", YourPlugin.class.getName()) ``` Thomas On Wednesday, 30 July 2014 12:31:06 UTC+3, Nick T wrote: > Is there a way to have a native java script accessible in integration > tests?

Thanks for the help. My working solution is: 1. Create the plugins/scripts directory created in /tmp for each test node 2. copy my script jar into it 3. Register script in settings: .put("script.native.NAME.type", "NAME OF SCRIPT") I am super grateful for all your help. Btw, I wasn't creating it as a plugin.
