Get Started

In config.js change the configs to match your Elasticsearch cluster.

/* Configs */
url: "http://localhost:9200" //Cluster http url
index_name: "twitter" //Index name or comma-separated list
type: "tweet" //Type
size: 10 //Number of results displayed at a time
search_delay: 500 //Delay between actual search request in ms

In index.html append to result. the field name you want to show from your es document. Using dot notation, you can access nested fields like such result.transactions.time.

<h2>{{result.name}}</h2>
<p>{{result.description}}</p>

Here it supports ElasticSearch version 2.x

bin/plugin install romansanchez/calaca
