I am completely new to web development and I want to set up a database search client on a website I am making because I do not want to write my own inefficient MySQL query strings. My plan is to use Elastic Search for this and my main question is:
Once my site is on a dedicated server somewhere, how do I install Elastic Search to the server, and/or what should I look for in a server so that I will be able to use Elastic Search?
You'll need a JRE, that's about it as far just getting started.
See http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/setup/installation.html for more details.
You'll probably want to run it as a service, If your using Windows you can download installers here. https://github.com/rgl/elasticsearch-setup/downloads
Hit me up if you need any help.

In my app, I'd like to use "Elastic App Search" functionality, especially facets. I except it work like this: https://github.com/elastic/search-ui
At this point, I have installed Elastic Search & Kibana (using brew) and populated it with data. I am able to run it locally and make queries.
To install the App Search (which is included in Elastic Enterprise Search), I use the following instructions: https://www.elastic.co/downloads/enterprise-search.
I have done everything up to point 3.
In point 4:
I can't locate the elastic user password in the logs, I haven't set any security/passwords so far, so I guess there's no password at this moment.
I haven't seen or used any Kibana token so far. I tried to generate it, as it showed here, but it does not work for me. It seems like the default path for elasticsearch should be /usr/local/etc/elasticsearch, but I don't even have etc directory in my /usr/local. Instead, elasticsearch is inside the homebrew directory.
I can't find http_ca.crt file anywhere in my homebrew, should I enable security in elasticsearch first to generate this file?
Unlike Elastic Search and Kibana, the Elastic Enterprise Search file I downloaded in step 1 is not an application, but a regular directory. Where should I put it?
Does my approach even make sense? Is it possible to run this service locally just like I'm running ES/Kibana? Most of the examples on the Internet show how to run this service on Docker only.
I was trying to find an opensource plugin to use LDAP/AD authentication for Elasticsearch/Kibana. I found Open Distro which is currently based on Elasticsearch 7.10.2, and I wanted to use the security plugin in my existing regular ES stack which works with 7.11.2, but it complains that it can't work with newer versions of ES. The problem is that I cant downgrade anyway without losing my data.
Is there another way (opensource) to integrate LDAP whether using Open Disto or another plugin?
You need to "downgrade" in that case if you want to stick with the latest version of this plugin I think.
You could start a new cluster with 7.10.2 and use reindex from remote to reindex your data in the "new" cluster. So read from 7.11 and write to 7.10.
I have Kibana plugin installed in each ES node. Kibana is behind nginx reverse proxy because it's served from /kibana/ route. Elastic is protected with SearchGuard plugin.
Question: History for dev tools/console is reset with each login (after each login, history is empty). Now, I'm not sure if I'm missing something or that's expected behaviour when SearchGuard is in use? I remember that worked well before installing SearchGuard. Not sure if it's coincidence or it's indeed related. It's saving properly during one session.
Elastic version: 6.1.3
Thank you!
It's stored in local storage under sense:editor_state in Chrome.
If it's wiped out daily or the cache is cleared, so will your searches be.
use ?load_from= in your url and save your queries in a json file... be aware of CORS if you use a web app of your own.
I have an app in android, ios and windows which works in offline mode. That is, content is stored in the local database. Now I am trying to implement elasticsearch on this app. Is it possible to search the data from local database when I am offline. Or, is there a way to access Elasticsearch without HTTP.
Please help me on this.
Answer is no, Since elasticsearch will be installed outside of your phone.
But one of the options could be FTS3. Its not as powerful as ES but could be solution.
I am upgrading an install of SonarQube from 4.5.1 to 5.2. I wasn't part of the original install and when looking at the sonar.properties file to see what needs to be update in the new one, I see properties for "sonar.search".
What is Sonar Search? Why would I need to uncomment/update these properties?
I haven't been able to find any good documentation on the SonarQube website on what it is and "sonar" and "search" internet searches bring up way too many unrelated results to sift through.
It is an Elasticsearch instance used for indexing some database tables. It allows for example powerful search requests on issues. See the sidebar of page "Issues". It supports multi-criteria searches and displays valuable facets.
Default settings in sonar.properties are good enough for most of environments. JVM settings of this dedicated process could be overridden if dozens of millions of issues are stored in database.
