Accessing an Elasticsearch Cluster Using Spring Boot

Updated on 2024-09-14 GMT+08:00

You can access a CSS cluster using Spring Boot. Spring Boot can connect to a cluster in any of the following ways:

NOTE:

For details about how to use Spring Boot, see the official document: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/htmlsingle/

Precautions

  • You are advised to use the Elasticsearch Rest High Level Client version that matches the Elasticsearch version. For example, use Rest High Level Client 7.10.2 to access an Elasticsearch 7.10.2 cluster.
  • This section uses Spring Boot 2.5.5 as an example to describe how to connect Spring Boot to a cluster. The corresponding Spring Data Elasticsearch version is 4.2.x.

Prerequisites

  • The CSS cluster is available.
  • Ensure that the server running Java can communicate with the CSS cluster.
  • Depending on the network configuration method used, obtain the cluster access address. For details, see Network Configuration.
  • Install JDK 1.8 on the server. You can download JDK 1.8 from: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
  • Create a Spring Boot project.
  • Declare Java dependencies.

    7.10.2 indicates the version of the Elasticsearch Java client.

    • Maven mode:
      <parent>
          <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
          <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
          <version>2.5.5</version>
      </parent>
      <dependencies>
          <dependency>
              <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
              <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
          </dependency>
          <dependency>
              <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
              <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-elasticsearch</artifactId>
          </dependency>
          <dependency>
              <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
              <artifactId>elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client</artifactId>
              <version>7.10.2</version>
          </dependency>
      </dependencies>

Using Spring Boot to Access an HTTPS Cluster (Using a Security Certificate)

You can use a security certificate to connect to a cluster in security mode + HTTPS.

  1. Obtain the security certificate CloudSearchService.cer.
    1. Log in to the CSS management console.
    2. In the navigation pane, choose Clusters. The cluster list is displayed.
    3. Click the name of a cluster to go to the cluster details page.
    4. On the Configuration page, click Download Certificate next to HTTPS Access.
      Figure 1 Downloading a certificate
  2. Convert the security certificate CloudSearchService.cer. Upload the downloaded security certificate to the client and use keytool to convert the .cer certificate into a .jks certificate that can be read by Java.
    • In Linux, run the following command to convert the certificate:
      keytool -import -alias newname -keystore ./truststore.jks -file ./CloudSearchService.cer 
    • In Windows, run the following command to convert the certificate:
      keytool -import -alias newname -keystore .\truststore.jks -file .\CloudSearchService.cer

    In the preceding command, newname indicates the user-defined certificate name.

    After this command is executed, you will be prompted to set the certificate password and confirm the password. Securely store the password. It will be used for accessing the cluster.

  3. application.properties configuration file:

    elasticsearch.url=host1:9200,host2:9200
    elasticsearch.username=username
    elasticsearch.password=password
    
    Table 3 Parameter description

    Parameter

    Description

    host

    IP address for accessing the Elasticsearch cluster.

    username

    Username for accessing the cluster.

    password

    Password of the user.

  4. Code:
    NOTE:
    • com.xxx indicates the project directory, for example, com.company.project.
    • com.xxx.repository is the repository directory, which is defined by extends org.springframework.data.elasticsearch.repository.ElasticsearchRepository.
