Kibaba Plugin - how to insert data into elasticsearch

[Hoai_Le]

let say I have a plugin with route:

router.post(
    {
      path: '/api/dashboard_real_time/create',
      validate: {
        body: schema.object({
          fullName: schema.string(),
          age: schema.number(),
          status: schema.number()
        })
      },
    },
    async (context, request, response) => {
      // then i wanna insert some data into elasticsearch here
      return response.ok({
        body: {
          time: new Date().toISOString(),
        },
      });
    }
  );

I am confused to use the kibana elastic search service or data plugin or elasticsearchjs (which i have to config authentication manually).
Please give me some sample code. Thank alot!

Hello,

Here is our official elasticsearch node JS client - GitHub - elastic/elasticsearch-js: Official Elasticsearch client library for Node.js

I suspect that is what you need to use. Let me know if the docs are not enough.

Thanks,
