This example demonstrates how to use Spring Data Elasticsearch to do simple CRUD operation.

You can find the tutorial about this example at the below link:

For this example, a Book controller created that allows to do the following operations with Elasticsearch:

• Get list of all books
• Create a book
• Update a book by Id
• Delete a book by Id
• Search for a book by ISBN
• Fuzzy search for books by author and title

The first thing to do is to start Elasticsearch. For that you can use the docker-compose file in this project and run it like this:

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose up -d

It brings Elasticsearch up on a single node cluster with the cluser name elasticsearch.

Then you can run the application like below:

$ ./mvnw spring-boot:run

If your Elasticsearch URI is not localhost and/or the cluster name is different simply override one or both of the following environment variable:

• ES_URI
• ES_CLUSTER_NAME

Once everything is up and running open the browser and go to http://localhost:8080. You should see Swagger to interact with.
