new ElasticSearch({config})

Constructs the Elasticsearch driver instance, connected with the config [Object].

Config definition (all settings are optional):

• protocol [String]: The protocol for the elasticsearch host url, not needed if you use a full url as host.
• host [String]: Elasticsearch host URL. In case of the host url includes a protocol, it will replace the actual protocol value in the config.
• port [Number]: The port for the elasticsearch host url, not needed if you use a full url as host.
• user [String]: Elasticsearch user for the host.
• password [String]: Elasticsearch password for the host.
• limit [Number]: Default limit for getting operations.
• prefix [String]: Prefix for table name, if it's setted, any operation will use the model table name with the prefix. Ex: table.prefix.
• awsCredentials [Boolean]: Set to true if you need to use AWS credentials ENV variables for the host connection/authentication.
• requestTimeout [Number]: The max timeout for operation in miliseconds, default 4000 (4s).
• maxRetries [Number]: The max retries for operation, default 3.

Config usage:

{
	protocol: 'https://', // Default empty
	host: 'url-to-my-elasticsearch-host.com', // Default http://localhost
	port: 9200, // Default: empty
	user: 'Username', // Default empty
	password: 'password', // Default empty
	limit: 10, // Default 500
	prefix: 'products', // Default empty
	awsCredentials: true, // Default false
	requestTimeout: 2000, // Default 4000
	maxRetries: 1 // Default 3
}

async buildIndex(model)

Puts the elasticsearch mappings obtained from the model, needed for sorting operations.
This method must be used once, only when a new table (elasticsearch index) is created.
Is strongly recommended the usage of this method before any other operation.

Model example for this method:

class MyModel extends Model{

	static get table() {
		return 'table'; // The elasticsearch index
	}

	static get sortableFields() {
		return {
			id: { type: 'integer' }, // If there is no defined ID field, it will be mapped as text
			myfield: true, // Default will be mapped as text (elasticsearch string)
			myOtherField: { type: 'integer' },
			someOtherField: { type: 'long' }
		};
	}
}

Elasticsearch basic field datatypes:

• String: text, keyword
• Numeric: long, integer, short, byte, double, float, half_float, scaled_float
• Date: date
• Date nanoseconds: date_nanos
• Boolean: boolean
• Binary: binary
• Range: integer_range, float_range, long_range, double_range, date_range

Important:

• If you define the id field as non text format may cause errors if you do an insertion operation without specifing the id field due the generated id will be in text format.
• The table name from the model will be converted into snake_case due elasticsearch doesn't support camelCase in the index names.
• The sortable fields are optional, same as this method, is only required for sorting items in get operations.

async insert(model, {item})

Inserts an item into elasticsearch.
Requires a model [Model] and item [Object]
Returns the ID of the inserted item

Important:

• If your item doesn't have an id field, it will be inserted with an auto-generated id, using UUID.
• The id field is unique, it cannot be duplicated.

async multiInsert(model, [{items}])

Inserts multiple items into elasticsearch.
Requires a model [Model] and items [Object array]
Returns true if the operation was successful or false if not.

Important:

• Every item that doesn't have an id field, will be inserted with an auto-generated id using UUID.
• The id field is unique, it cannot be duplicated.

async update(model, {values}, {filter})

Updates one or multiple items from elasticsearch.
Requires a model [Model], values [Object] and filter [Object]
Returns the updated count [Number]

async get(model, {params})

Get items from the database then returns an [Object array] with the getted items.
Requires a model [Model] and params [Object]
Returns all items if you use without parameters

Parameters (all are optional):

• order [Object]: Order params for getted items, Example: { myField: 'asc', myOtherField: 'desc' }
• limit [Number]: Max amount of items per page to get. Default 500 or setted on config when constructs.
• page [Number]: Get the items of the specified page.
• filters [Object]: Search filters, leave empty for all items.

Filter operators

• $eq: Matches values that are equal to a specified value.
• $gt: Matches values that are greater than a specified value.
• $gte: Matches values that are greater than or equal to a specified value.
• $in: Matches any of the values specified in an array.
• $lt: Matches values that are less than a specified value.
• $lte: Matches values that are less than or equal to a specified value.
• $ne: Matches all values that are not equal to a specified value.
• $nin: Matches none of the values specified in an array.

Filters example

{
	filters:{
		name: 'Edward', // Matches exactly the field, get only the items with 'Edward' in name field
		$in: {
			fullname: ['Edward', 'Sanchez'] // Similar as MongoDB, matches any of the words in the fullname field and, in this case, then gets all items that includes 'Edward' or 'Sanchez' in that field
		},
		$gt: {
			id: 10 // Similar as MongoDB, get all items which id field is greater than 10
		}
	}
}

async getTotals(model)

Get the totals from the latest get operation with pagination.
Requires a model [Model]
Returns an [Object] with the total count, page size, total pages and current page.

getTotals return example

{
	total: 1000,
	pageSize: 100, // Limit from the last get operation or default value (500)
	pages: 10,
	page: 5
}

async save(model, {item})

Insert/update an item into the elasticsearch.
Requires a model [Model] and item [Object]
Returns the ID of the upserted item

async multiSave(model, [{items}])

Insert/update multiple items into the elasticsearch.
Requires a model [Model] and items [Object array]
Returns true if the operation was successful or false if not.

async remove(model, {filters})

Removes the item or items that matches the filters from the elasticsearch.
Requires a model [Model] and filters [Object]
Returns the deleted count [Number]

async distinct(model, {params})

Requires a model [Model] and params [Object]
Returns an [String array] with the unique values of the key field from elasticsearch.

Parameters:

• key [String] (required): The key field name
• filters [Object] (optional): Search filters, leave empty for all items.

Errors

The errors are informed with a ElasticSearchError. This object has a code that can be useful for a correct error handling.

The config validation errors are informed with a ElasticSearchConfigError. This object has a code that can be useful for a correct error handling.

Usage

const ElasticSearch = require('@janiscommerce/elasticsearch');
const Model = require('myModel');

const elastic = new ElasticSearch({
	host: 'https://myelastichost.com',
	user: 'root',
	password: 'foobar'
});

const model = new Model();

(async () => {

	await elastic.buildIndex(model);

	let result;

	// insert
	result = await elastic.insert(model, { id: 1, value 'sarasa' }); // expected return: 1

	// multiInsert
	result = await elastic.multiInsert(model, [
		{ id: 1, value: 'sarasa 1' },
		{ id: 2, value: 'sarasa 2' },
		{ id: 3, value: 'sarasa 3' }
	]); // expected return: true

	// update
	result = await elastic.update(model, { value: 'foobar 1' }, { id: 1 }); // expected return: 1

	// get
	result = await elastic.get(model, {}); // expected return: all entries array [{item}, {item}...]
	result = await elastic.get(model, { filters: { id: 1 } }); // expected return: an array with the item with id 1
	result = await elastic.get(model, { limit: 10, page: 2, filters: { value: 'foo' } }); // expected return: the page 2 of the elements with value "foo" with a page size of 10.
	result = await elastic.get(model, { order: { id: 'asc' } }); // expected return: all entries array ordered ascendently by id

	// getTotals
	result = await elastic.getTotals(model);

	/* expected return:
	{
		page: 2,
		limit: 10,
		pages: 5,
		total: 50
	}
	*/

	// save
	result = await elastic.save(model, { id: 1, value: 'foobar 1' }); // example return: 1

	// multiSave
	result = await elastic.multiSave(model, [
		{ id: 1, value: 'foobar 1' },
		{ id: 2, value: 'foobar 2' },
		{ id: 3, value: 'foobar 3' }
	]); // expected return: true

	// remove
	result = await elastic.remove(model, { 
		$in: {
			value: ['foobar']
		} 
	}); // expected return: 3

	// distinct
	result = await elastic.distinct(model, {
		key: 'myField';
