Test data for elasticsearch-head

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi All,
I'm the main developer behind elasticseach-head, and I have a plee.

I don't have a lot of time to work on this project, but I do want to
keep moving it forward - However, I'm not a java guy, and I'm not a search
guy and I don't (anymore) work on elasticsearch day-to-day, but I am a UI
guy. What I need to enable me to add features, fix bugs and feel confident
about merging pull requests, is sample data. The ability to quickly spin up
a cluster that has percolation, or makes extensive use of the _parent
feature or has 100 indices.

So my question: does anyone have or would be willing to contribute shell
scripts (or something else) that create indices and clusters with various
elasticsearch features, field types, mappings, percolation, rivers.

For example, I would love to add support for rivers to es-head, but I don't
want to have to learn about the intricacies of each river, it will take
too much time. If there are some scripts out there already to start up a
mongodb db, and start a river, then I could probably add an interface
pretty quickly.

My existing sample directory
https://github.com/mobz/elasticsearch-head/tree/master/lib/es/test/index_generators
is, however woefully small . I would accept pull requests against this, or
perhaps there is an existing resource out there. Maybe this would be a
great resource for more people that could be a standalone project? Maybe
kimchy has a giant stash?!

Thanks for the help and support. I will share the scripts with you

This may be of some help:

https://github.com/sematext/ActionGenerator

It's not really documented and needs to be extended, but it does work.
Basically, while developing SPM for Solr/Elasticsearch/HBase/Sensei we
needed something like you - something that could populate indices or DB and
that could query it. So that is what ActionGenerator does. And the idea
is that its core is generic and extensible, so that people can plug in
action generators for their specific systems.

You or others here may want to fork, add Elasticsearch action generator,
and we'll be happy to merge all valuable contributions. We may actually
have an ES-specific action generator already, just not committed there yet.
I can check if this is something you want to use?

Anyhow, maybe this can be of help.
