RabbitMQ River Plugin for Elasticsearch
The RabbitMQ River plugin allows index bulk format messages into elasticsearch. RabbitMQ River allows to automatically index a RabbitMQ queue. The format of the messages follows the bulk api format:
{ "index" : { "_index" : "twitter", "_type" : "tweet", "_id" : "1" } }
{ "tweet" : { "text" : "this is a tweet" } }
{ "delete" : { "_index" : "twitter", "_type" : "tweet", "_id" : "2" } }
{ "create" : { "_index" : "twitter", "_type" : "tweet", "_id" : "1" } }
{ "tweet" : { "text" : "another tweet" } }
Rivers are deprecated and will be removed in the future. Have a look at logstash rabbitmq input.
In order to install the plugin, run:
bin/plugin install elasticsearch/elasticsearch-river-rabbitmq/2.6.0
You need to install a version matching your Elasticsearch version:
| Elasticsearch | RabbitMQ River | Docs |
|---|---|---|
| master | Build from source | See below |
| es-1.x | Build from source | 2.7.0-SNAPSHOT |
| es-1.6 | 2.6.0 | 2.6.0 |
| es-1.5 | 2.5.0 | 2.5.0 |
| es-1.4 | 2.4.1 | 2.4.1 |
| es-1.3 | 2.3.0 | 2.3.0 |
| es-1.2 | 2.2.0 | 2.2.0 |
| es-1.1 | 2.0.0 | 2.0.0 |
| es-1.0 | 2.0.0 | 2.0.0 |
| es-0.90 | 1.6.0 | 1.6.0 |
To build a SNAPSHOT version, you need to build it with Maven:
mvn clean install
plugin --install river-rabbitmq \
--url file:target/releases/elasticsearch-river-rabbitmq-X.X.X-SNAPSHOT.zip
Create river
Creating the rabbitmq river is as simple as (all configuration parameters are provided, with default values):
curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/_river/my_river/_meta' -d '{
"type" : "rabbitmq",
"rabbitmq" : {
"host" : "localhost",
"port" : 5672,
"user" : "guest",
"pass" : "guest",
"vhost" : "/",
"queue" : "elasticsearch",
"exchange" : "elasticsearch",
"routing_key" : "elasticsearch",
"exchange_declare" : true,
"exchange_type" : "direct",
"exchange_durable" : true,
"queue_declare" : true,
"queue_bind" : true,
"queue_durable" : true,
"queue_auto_delete" : false,
"heartbeat" : "30m",
"qos_prefetch_size" : 0,
"qos_prefetch_count" : 10,
"nack_errors" : true
},
"index" : {
"bulk_size" : 100,
"bulk_timeout" : "10ms",
"ordered" : false,
"replication" : "default"
}
}'
You can disable exchange or queue declaration by setting exchange_declare or queue_declare to false (true by default). You can disable queue binding by setting queue_bind to false (true by default).
Addresses(host-port pairs) also available. it is useful to taking advantage rabbitmq HA(active/active) without any rabbitmq load balancer. (http://www.rabbitmq.com/ha.html)
...
"rabbitmq" : {
"addresses" : [
{
"host" : "rabbitmq-host1",
"port" : 5672
},
{
"host" : "rabbitmq-host2",
"port" : 5672
}
],
"user" : "guest",
"pass" : "guest",
"vhost" : "/",
...
}
...
The river is automatically bulking queue messages if the queue is overloaded, allowing for faster catchup with the messages streamed into the queue. The ordered flag allows to make sure that the messages will be indexed in the same order as they arrive in the query by blocking on the bulk request before picking up the next data to be indexed. It can also be used as a simple way to throttle indexing.
You can set heartbeat option to define heartbeat to RabbitMQ river even if no more messages are intended to be consumed (default to 30m).
Replication mode is set to node default value. You can change it by forcing replication to async or sync.
By default, when exception happens while executing bulk, failing messages are marked as rejected. You can ignore errors and ack messages in any case setting nack_errors to false.
Setting qos_prefetch_size will define maximum amount of content (measured in octets) that the server will deliver (0 if unlimited - default).
Setting qos_prefetch_count will define maximum number of messages that the server will deliver (0 if unlimited). Default to bulk_size*2.
Scripting
RabbitMQ river can call scripts to modify or filter messages.
Full bulk scripting
To enable bulk scripting use the following configuration options:
curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/_river/my_river/_meta' -d '{
"type" : "rabbitmq",
"rabbitmq" : {
...
},
"index" : {
...
},
"bulk_script_filter" : {
"script" : "myscript",
"script_lang" : "native",
"script_params" : {
"param1" : "val1",
"param2" : "val2"
...
}
}
}'
scriptis optional and is the name of the registered script inelasticsearch.yml. Basically, add the following property:script.native.myscript.type: sample.MyNativeScriptFactoryand provide this class to elasticsearch classloader.script_langis by defaultnative.script_paramsare optional configuration arguments for the script.
The script will receive a variable called body which contains a String representation of RabbitMQ's message body. That body can be modified by the script, and it must return the new body as a String as well. If the returned body is null, that message will be skipped from the indexing flow.
For more information see Scripting module
Doc per doc scripting
You may also want to apply scripts document per document. It will only works for index or create operations.
To enable scripting use the following configuration options:
curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/_river/my_river/_meta' -d '{
"type" : "rabbitmq",
"rabbitmq" : {
...
},
"index" : {
...
},
"script_filter" : {
"script" : "ctx.type1.field1 += param1",
"script_lang" : "mvel",
"script_params" : {
"param1" : 1
}
}
}'
scriptis your javascript code if you usemvelscripts.script_langis by defaultmvel.script_paramsare optional configuration arguments for the script.
The script will receive a variable called ctx which contains a String representation of the current document meant to be indexed or created.
For more information see Scripting module
Tests
Integrations tests in this plugin require working RabbitMQ service and therefore disabled by default. You need to launch locally rabbitmq-server before starting integration tests.
To run test:
mvn clean test -Dtests.rabbitmq=true
