jettro / elasticsearch-gui

An angularJS client for elasticsearch as a plugin

Hi there 👋

Welcome to my profile page. Github contains a lot of code, some repositories are bigger than others. But you get a good impression on what I have been working on.

• 🔭 I’m currently working on AWS samples
• 🌱 I’m currently learning AWS CDK
• 👯 I’m looking to collaborate on everything that is search related
• 🤔 I’m looking for help with CDK samples related to AWS elasticsearch
• 💬 Ask me about Elasticsearch, Solr, DDD, CQRS

elasticsearch-gui's Issues

Pretty print the query that is shown as a representation of the current selected values.

Implement error handling

At the moment there is no mechanism for error handling. There should be a generic mechanism for client side validation but also for errors when communicating with the server.

After changing the configuration, the dashboard shows errors

Obtaining information about nodes throws an error:

Cannot call method 'info' of undefined

Implement simple_query_string for the search page

In the search page we want to provide a richer search query:

http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-simple-query-string-query.html

Read docs about breaking changes and create new issues for them

http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/1.x/breaking-changes.html

Move all configuration into one modal

I want one configuration in a modal that is used in all screens.

Make it possible to store presets in your browser using local storage

Improve the documentation for the plugin

I want to start writing more about what the plugin is meant to do and how you can use it.

Create a timed trigger to check if the connection to the elasticsearch instance is running.

We need to create a trigger that checks if the elasticsearch connection is still available.

Upgrade libraries for angular and bootstrap

Beware, we cannot do this before the bootstrap-ui project supports bootstrap 3 and the new angular 1.2

Improve the structure of the ui

• Initial screen is the dashboard, so the dashboard will become the homescreen
• The current home screen will become the search screen
• Remove the statistics screen, it is still not used
• Add the logo's to the about screen and write something about the plugin

Replace facets with the new grouping functionality

Failed to install plugin

Hi,
This is my error:
root@couch1:/usr/share/elasticsearch# bin/plugin -v --install jettro/elasticsearch-gui
-> Installing jettro/elasticsearch-gui...
Trying https://github.com/jettro/elasticsearch-gui/zipball/master... (assuming site plugin)

Meanwhile I'm able to get it by wget.

Change behavior for selecting highlighting and explain

At the moment you have to explicitly refresh the query to see what the changes are when you select highlighting, explain or the type of query (or, and, phrase). I want to add something like a watch to change this when the value changes. Then the refresh button for the query can also be removed.

Prevent certain indexes from showing by default

Remove the logstash and marvel indexes by default. Make a config menu to store your choice in local storage.

Upgrade to new elasticsearch 1.0 RC

Make it possible to deploy the plugin on github and chose the server to connect to

Github provides a feature to host a website. Since the plugin is pure JavaScript you can make it connect to another elasticsearch server if the port is available to you.

To be able to use that we need a configuration option to provide a url to the server to connect to and make all calls to a backend to use the server url as well.

Create an easy way to drop an index

In the overview screen make it possible to drop an index

Add the option to show the versions of items

It is possible to show the version of the documents. Add this in a way simular to the explain option:
{
"version" : true,
"query" : {
...
}
}

Add save query to Query screen

We already have the option to save a query in the home screen, I want to have something simular on the query screen.

Number of shards and size of the index is not shown on the dashboard

Issue in the navbar directive

There is an issue with the current implementation of the navbar. Somehow the status check is performed twice. Seems to be a bug together with the used release of angularjs. Need to bump to released version 1.2.6 of angular and everything is fine.

Use the new snapshot and restore functionality.

I want to plugin to be able to create snapshots and even restore from a snapshot. We need an option to create the backup repository and register it with elasticsearch. Next to that we need to have a button that creates a snapshot. We also need a button with a list of snapshots that we can go back to.

Specify whether a node is client or not in the node list

You can currently see what nodes the cluster is composed of. It would be nice to be able to distinguish between nodes that are just clients or not.

The properties to look at are:

1. data: whether the node can hold data
2. master: whether the node can become master

A client node cannot do any of the above.

prevent empty search in home screen

At the moment an exception is thrown when executing a search without entering text to search for.

add pagination to the results

I want to have pagination to the results of the query functionalities:
{
"from" : 9,
"size" : 20,
"query" : {
...
}
}

Errors are not removed when switching screens

When errors occur, they are never removed. You cannot click them away. For now removing them on a switch to another tab is good enough.

Make nested fields work with facets

Add playing with analyzers and see their effect

Limit possible types when selecting an index

At the moment you can select all the types, even when one index is selected. It would be better if you can only select the types for the chosen index(es).

Show the aliases for indexes

Check if we need to replace elastic.js with the elasticsearch.js library

Elasticsearch provides it's own library for interacting with elasticsearch. This might be(come) a better choice. Need to check it out:

http://elasticsearch.github.io/elasticsearch-js/

The fields do not work when json objects are used for a field.

We want to see the properties of json objects when they are indexed

Add filters to the Queries screen

Demonstrate the effect of filters on the executed query.

Show a list with site plugins that is installed

Make every item a link, that way it becomes easy to visit the plugin.

The help popups in the query screen broke down

The help popups are now empty, must be an issue due to the upgrading of the libraries.

Show the reason why the cluster state is yellow if possible

If the amount of nodes versus the amount of primary shards and replica's does not fit, we can make the warning more explicit.

Available field list shows not all fields of my mapping

Nested fields are not shown in the available field list.

Histogram and data histogram facet select dialog has a bug

The period or interval is not passed from the dialog window to the actual query

Exclude _default_ type from shown mappings

The default type is a way to specify generic mapping definition for types that will be created in the future. It's a special type that shouldn't be shown on the UI since it doesn't hold data.

Add _suggest end point to the query possibilities

ES client connects to localhost instead of the host it is running on

Installed this plugin and can not run any query because the plugin connects to localhost instead of the host it is running on.

Make it possible to close an index, but also to open it again

To be able to open an index we need to find another mechanism to find all indexes. There are two different methods to find info about the index.

/_cluster/state => shows the closed indexes as well
/_status => shows information about sizing.

Create a new tab for obtaining items by id and show the complete document.

Implement functionality for multi_fields

Multi fields is not working for the facets in the Home screen.

Check if we can use ignore_unavailable to hide fields of closed indexes

Make use of _nodes?all=true to give more info about available nodes

http://localhost:9200/_nodes?all=true&pretty

Shows info about configuration, jvm, os, hardware and a lot more.

Do something with the new cluster stats api

A new api is now available with a lot of information about the cluster. This might be enough to combine health and nodes info.

http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cluster-stats.html

Beware, you'll need elasticsearch 0.90.8 to make this work

Make better dates in the screen where we show the facets

Create option to configure number of replicas from the dashboard

In the dashboard we show the amount of shards and replicas. We need a way to change the number of replicas.
