ElasticSearch components for Pip.Services in Node.js / ES2017

This module is a part of the Pip.Services polyglot microservices toolkit.

The Elasticsearch module contains logging components with data storage on the Elasticsearch server.

The module contains the following packages:

  • Build - contains a factory for the construction of components
  • Log - Logging components

Quick links:

Use

Install the NPM package as

npm install pip-services-elasticsearch-nodex --save

Microservice components shall perform logging usual way using CompositeLogger component. The CompositeLogger will get ElasticSearchLogger from references and will redirect log messages there among other destinations.

import { ConfigParams } from 'pip-services3-commons-nodex'; 
import { IConfigurable } from 'pip-services3-commons-nodex'; 
import { IReferences } from 'pip-services3-commons-nodex'; 
import { IReferenceable } from 'pip-services3-commons-nodex'; 
import { CompositeLogger } from 'pip-services3-components-nodex'; 

export class MyComponent implements IConfigurable, IReferenceable {
  private _logger: CompositeLogger = new CompositeLogger();
  
  public configure(config: ConfigParams): void {
    this._logger.configure(config);
  }
  
  public setReferences(refs: IReferences): void {
    this._logger.setReferences(refs);
  }
  
  public myMethod(correlationId: string, param1: any, callback: (err: any, result: any) => void): void {
    this._logger.trace(correlationId, "Executed method mycomponent.mymethod");
    ....
  }
}

Configuration for your microservice that includes ElasticSearch logger may look the following way.

...
{{#if ELASTICSEARCH_ENABLED}}
- descriptor: pip-services:logger:elasticsearch:default:1.0
  connection:
    uri: {{{ELASTICSEARCG_SERVICE_URI}}}
    host: {{{ELASTICSEARCH_SERVICE_HOST}}}{{#unless ELASTICSEARCH_SERVICE_HOST}}localhost{{/unless}}
    port: {{ELASTICSEARCG_SERVICE_PORT}}{{#unless ELASTICSEARCH_SERVICE_PORT}}9200{{/unless}}\ 
{{/if}}
...

Develop

For development you shall install the following prerequisites:

  • Node.js 8+
  • Visual Studio Code or another IDE of your choice
  • Docker
  • Typescript

Install dependencies:

npm install

Compile the code:

tsc

Run automated tests:

npm test

Generate API documentation:

./docgen.ps1

Before committing changes run dockerized build and test as:

./build.ps1
./test.ps1
./clear.ps1

Configure the vm.max_map_count

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

fixes:
max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]

Typed vs Type-less indexes

ES version 7 stopped supporting "types" and encouraged a separation of disperate data into different indexes. By default, this version of pip-services3-elasticsearch-nodex will support 7.x type-less indexes. You can support to the 6.x "typed" approach by setting the include_type_name option to true. This allows it to work with either 6.x or 7.x ElasticSearch servers.

You can read more about how this is accomplished here
