client.index([params, [callback]])
Stores a typed JSON document in an index, making it searchable. When the id
param is not set, a unique id will be auto-generated. When you specify an id
either a new document will be created, or an existing document will be updated. To enforce "put-if-absent" behavior set the opType
to "create"
or use the create()
method.
Optimistic concurrency control is performed, when the version
argument is specified. By default, no version checks are performed.
By default, the document will be available for get()
actions immediately, but will only be available for searching after an index refresh (which can happen automatically or manually). See indices.refresh
.
The default method is POST
and the usual params and return values apply. See the elasticsearch docs for more about this method.
