Accessing an OpenSearch Cluster Using the High Level REST Client

Prerequisites

• The target OpenSearch cluster is available.
• The server that runs the Java code can communicate with the OpenSearch cluster.
• Depending on the network configuration method used, obtain the cluster access address. For details, see Network Configuration.
• Java has been installed on the server and the JDK version is 11 or later. Download JDK 11 from Java Archive Downloads.

Introducing Dependencies

Introduce the required Java dependencies on the server where you run Java code.

CSS allows you to use the Elasticsearch 7.10 Java client to connect to OpenSearch clusters. To ensure better compatibility, however, you are advised to use an OpenSearch Java client that has the same version as the target OpenSearch cluster.

If your High Level REST Client version is later than the OpenSearch cluster version and there are incompatibility issues with some requests, you can use RestHighLevelClient.getLowLevelClient() to obtain the Low Level REST Client and customize OpenSearch requests. For details, see Accessing an OpenSearch Cluster Using the Low Level REST Client.

Select a reference example based on the Java client you use.

Accessing a Cluster

The sample code varies depending on the Java client and the security mode settings of the target OpenSearch cluster. Select the right reference document based on your service scenario.

Connecting to a Non-Security Mode Cluster Using the OpenSearch High Level REST Client

Use the OpenSearch High Level REST Client to connect to an OpenSearch cluster for which the security mode is disabled, and query whether the test index exists. The sample code is as follows:

import org.apache.http.HttpHost;
import org.opensearch.client.RequestOptions;
import org.opensearch.client.RestClient;
import org.opensearch.client.RestClientBuilder;
import org.opensearch.client.RestHighLevelClient;
import org.opensearch.client.indices.GetIndexRequest;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
public class RestHighLevelClientExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
	List<String> host = Arrays.asList("{Cluster access address}");
        RestClientBuilder builder = RestClient.builder(constructHttpHosts(host, 9200, "http"));
        final RestHighLevelClient client = new RestHighLevelClient(builder);
        GetIndexRequest indexRequest = new GetIndexRequest("test");
        boolean exists = client.indices().exists(indexRequest, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
        System.out.println(exists);
        client.close();
    }
    /**
     * Use the constructHttpHosts function to convert the node IP address list of the host cluster.
     */
    public static HttpHost[] constructHttpHosts(List<String> host, int port, String protocol) {
        return host.stream().map(p -> new HttpHost(p, port, protocol)).toArray(HttpHost[]::new);
    }
}

This piece of code checks whether the test index exists in the cluster. If true or false is returned, it indicates that the cluster is connected.

Connecting to a Security-Mode Cluster Using the OpenSearch High Level REST Client (Without a Certificate)

Use the OpenSearch High Level REST Client to connect to a security-mode OpenSearch cluster (HTTP or HTTPS) without loading a security certificate, and query whether the test index exists. The sample code is as follows:

Connecting to a Security-Mode Cluster Using the Elasticsearch High Level REST Client (With a Certificate)

Use the Elasticsearch 7.10.2 High Level REST Client to connect to a security-mode OpenSearch cluster that uses HTTPS with a security certificate loaded, and query whether the test index exists. The sample code is as follows:

Table 5 Function parameters

Parameter	Description
host	IP address for accessing the cluster. If there are multiple IP addresses, separate them with commas (,).
port	Access port of the cluster. The default value is 9200.
protocol	Connection protocol. Set this parameter to https.
connectTimeout	Socket connection timeout (in ms).
connectionRequestTimeout	Socket connection request timeout (in ms).
socketTimeout	Socket request timeout (in ms).
username	Username for accessing the cluster.
password	Password of the user.
certFilePath	Path for storing the security certificate.
certPassword	Password of the security certificate.

This piece of code checks whether the test index exists in the cluster. If true or false is returned, it indicates that the cluster is connected.

Obtaining and Uploading a Security Certificate

To access a security-mode OpenSearch cluster that uses HTTPS, a security certificate must be loaded. Perform the following steps to obtain the security certificate and upload it to the client:

1. Obtain the security certificate CloudSearchService.cer.
   1. Log in to the CSS management console.
   2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Clusters > OpenSearch.
   3. In the cluster list, click the name of the target cluster. The cluster information page is displayed.
   4. Click the Overview tab. In the Configuration area, click Download Certificate next to HTTPS Access.
      Figure 1 Downloading a security 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.
