Elasticsearch clients

All Elasticsearch operations are executed using a Client object and asynchronous in nature. There are two categories of clients.
a.   Node client
b.   Transport client

Node client
public static Client getNodeClient() {
 Node node = nodeBuilder().node();
 Client client = node.client();
 return client;
}
Above snippet is used to create client node.

When you start a node, it joins Elasticsearch cluster. You can define cluster.name in the /src/main/resources/elasticsearch.yml file in your project. As long as elasticsearch.yml is present in the classpath, it will be used when you start your node.

You can also create a node for a given cluster using following snippet.

public static Client getNodeClient(String clusterName) {
 Node node = nodeBuilder().clusterName(clusterName).node();
 Client client = node.client();
 return client;
}


A node can hold data (or) can just used for processing requests. Following snippet is used to create a client, which is used to processing requests (Do not store any data).

public static Client getPassiveNode() {
 Node node = nodeBuilder().settings(Settings.settingsBuilder().put("http.enabled", false)).client(true).node();
 Client client = node.client();
 return client;
}

You can create passive node to a given cluster using following snippet.    

/* Used to return passive node (Don't store any data in it) */
public static Client getPassiveNode(String clusterName) {
 Node node = nodeBuilder().clusterName(clusterName).settings(Settings.settingsBuilder().put("http.enabled", false)).client(true).node();
 Client client = node.client();
 return client;
}


You can close client by calling node.close method.

Note
1.   Frequently starting and stopping one or more node clients creates unnecessary noise across the cluster.
2.   Embedded node client will respond to outside requests, just like any other client. So it is better to disable HTTP for an embedded node client.

Simple ClientUtil class given below.

 }

 public static Client getClient() {
  if (localNode == null) {
   localNode = nodeBuilder()
     .settings(
       ImmutableSettings.settingsBuilder().put(

  return null;

   return client;
  }

  return activeNodes.get(clusterName).client();
 }

 /* Used to return passive node (Don't store any data in it) */
 public static Client getPassiveClientForCluster(String clusterName) {

   passiveNodes.put(clusterName, node);
   return client;
