One Node Setup Exercise

• Login into your sandbox

• Update distro using terminal window:

  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https -y

• Install Java Runtime Environment using terminal window

  sudo apt-get install default-jre -y

• Download and install Public Signing Key:

  curl https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch | sudo apt-key add -

• Add repository definition:

  echo "deb https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/6.x/apt stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-6.x.list

• Install Elastic Search:

  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install elasticsearch

• Start Elastic Search service:

  sudo service elasticsearch start

• We will be using 'curl' to troubleshoot setup and to run our first queries before we install and configure Kibana

• Give it a moment to finish the initialization and verify it is running:

  curl localhost:9200

• Expected response:

  {
  "name" : "A28UK7n",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "cluster_uuid" : "6-nG7QniTiuSFtPtJOdJsg",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "6.0.0",
    "build_hash" : "8f0685b",
    "build_date" : "2017-11-10T18:41:22.859Z",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "7.0.1",
    "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
    "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
  }

• Posting first document:

  curl -XPOST 'localhost:9200/orders/orders/1?pretty=true' \
    -H 'content-type: application/json' \
    -d '{
  "id": "1", 
  "placedOn": "2016-10-17T13:03:30.830Z",
  "status": "shipped"
  }'

• Expected Response:

  {
    "_index" : "orders",
    "_type" : "orders",
    "_id" : "1",
    "_version" : 2,
    "result" : "created",
    "_shards" : {
      "total" : 2,
      "successful" : 1,
      "failed" : 0
    },
    "_seq_no" : 0,
    "_primary_term" : 1
  }

• _seq_no: unique sequence of indexing operation

• _primary_term: shard id where primary copy stored

• First query:

  curl 'localhost:9200/orders/orders/_search?pretty=true&q=id:1'

• Please review results - where are: doc id, document data, index name, type name, and search score?
