# Connection handler for Amazon ES [<img title="Version" src="https://img.shields.io/npm/v/http-aws-es.svg?style=flat-square" />](https://www.npmjs.org/package/http-aws-es)

Makes [elasticsearch-js](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-js) compatible with Amazon ES. It uses the aws-sdk to make signed requests to an Amazon ES endpoint.

Forked from https://github.com/TheDeveloper/http-aws-es which breaks when used with the latest elasticsearch library v16.7.2. This original repo seems to have\n
been abandoned with no PR in a long time.

## Installation

```bash
# Install the connector, elasticsearch client and aws-sdk
npm install --save @jwhance/http-aws-es aws-sdk elasticsearch
```

# package.json

```
Something like this:

  "dependencies": {
    "@jwhance/http-aws-es": "6.1.2",
    "aws-sdk": "2.831.0",
    "elasticsearch": "16.7.2",

```

## Usage

```javascript
// create an elasticsearch client for your Amazon ES
let es = require("elasticsearch").Client({
  hosts: ["https://amazon-es-host.us-east-1.es.amazonaws.com"],
  connectionClass: require("@jwhance/http-aws-es"),
});
```

## Region + Credentials

The connector uses aws-sdk's default behaviour to obtain region + credentials from your environment. If you would like to set these manually, you can set them on aws-sdk:

```javascript
let AWS = require("aws-sdk");
AWS.config.update({
  credentials: new AWS.Credentials(accessKeyId, secretAccessKey),
  region: "us-east-1",
});
```

## Options

```javascript
let options = {
  hosts: [], // array of amazon es hosts (required)
  connectionClass: require("http-aws-es"), // use this connector (required)
  awsConfig: new AWS.Config({ region }), // set an aws config e.g. for multiple clients to different regions
  httpOptions: {}, // set httpOptions on aws-sdk's request. default to aws-sdk's config.httpOptions
};
let es = require("elasticsearch").Client(options);
```

## Test

```bash
npm test
# test against a real endpoint
AWS_PROFILE=your-profile npm run integration-test -- --endpoint https://amazon-es-host.us-east-1.es.amazonaws.com --region us-east-1
```
