Elasticsearch Curator Python API¶
The Elasticsearch Curator Python API helps you manage your indices and snapshots.
Note
This documentation is for the Elasticsearch Curator Python API. Documentation for the Elasticsearch Curator CLI – which uses this API and is installed as an entry_point as part of the package – is available in the Elastic guide.
Compatibility¶
The Elasticsearch Curator Python API is compatible with the 5.x Elasticsearch versions, and supports Python versions 2.7, and 3.5+.
Installation¶
Install the elasticsearch-curator package with pip:
pip install elasticsearch-curator
Example Usage¶
import elasticsearch
import curator
client = elasticsearch.Elasticsearch()
ilo = curator.IndexList(client)
ilo.filter_by_regex(kind='prefix', value='logstash-')
ilo.filter_by_age(source='name', direction='older', timestring='%Y.%m.%d', unit='days', unit_count=30)
delete_indices = curator.DeleteIndices(ilo)
delete_indices.do_action()
Tip
See more examples in the Examples page.
Features¶
The API methods fall into the following categories:
Object Classes build and filter index list or snapshot list objects.
Action Classes act on object classes.
Utilities are helper methods.
Logging¶
The Elasticsearch Curator Python API uses the standard logging library from Python.
It inherits two loggers from elasticsearch-py: elasticsearch and
elasticsearch.trace. Clients use the elasticsearch logger to log
standard activity, depending on the log level. The elasticsearch.trace
logger logs requests to the server in JSON format as pretty-printed curl
commands that you can execute from the command line. The elasticsearch.trace
logger is not inherited from the base logger and must be activated separately.
