Elasticsearch

Hi all. I try to understand how elasticsearch works and implement it in my Laravel project.

I install Elasticsearch on Homestead with the help of this tutorial : https://bosnadev.com/2014/09/12/install-elasticsearch-on-laravel-homestead/ And on Forge I used this recipe : http://forgerecipes.com/recipes/36

In the terminal when I enter : curl -X GET localhost:92000 I have the answer of the Elasticsearch server. But when I access to this url : http://localhost:9200 I receve an error (page not accessible)

How can I do to interact with Elasticsearch within Laravel, and make some tests in the url ?

I would love to know this also. Will you be using Elasticsearch to visualize big data? What made you choose Elasticsearch?

@6ber6ou u can interact with Elasticsearch within Laravel using curl

@6ber6ou your Elasticsearch server might not be running u can check the status by

sudo /etc/init.d/elasticsearch status .

you need to start ur server by sudo /etc/init.d/elasticsearch restart

now if u type curl -X GET localhost:9200 on terminal or browser it should response some what similar to below

{ "status" : 200, "name" : "Desmond Pitt", "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch", "version" : { "number" : "1.4.2", "build_hash" : "927caff6f05403e936c20bf4529f144f0c89fd8c", "build_timestamp" : "2014-12-16T14:11:12Z", "build_snapshot" : false, "lucene_version" : "4.10.2" }, "tagline" : "You Know, for Search" }

@csuarez you can used Elasticsearch to visualize big data by using elk stack

@6ber6ou might be a type but you have 2 zeros in in your curl i.e 92000. Also if you running MAMP as example your port will be 8888 so make sure your port is configured e.g. in my case it curl -X GET localhost:8888. Other than that shoudl work fine as per @sanjay1688 steps.

Another way to check is to run curl 'http://localhost:9200/?pretty'
