Elasticsearch Reindexer

Automatically reindex in elasticsearch like a charm!

Installation

npm i elasticsearch-reindexer

or 

yarn add elasticsearch-reindexer

Usage

Create a file named index.js including the following code:

const reindexer = require('elasticsearch-reindexer');
const fs = require('fs');

const indexDetailsFile = fs.readFileSync('index-details.json', 'utf-8');
const esConfigFile = fs.readFileSync('esclient-config.json', 'utf-8');

reindexer({
	newIndexName: 'test_clone',
	oriIndexName: 'test',
	indexDetailsFile: indexDetailsFile,
	esConfigFile: esConfigFile,
}).catch((error) => {
	console.log(error);
});
