Elasticsearch Curator Python API
================================
The Elasticsearch Curator Python API helps you manage your indices and
snapshots.
.. note::
This documentation is for the Elasticsearch Curator Python API. Documentation
for the Elasticsearch Curator *CLI* -- which uses this API and is installed
as an entry_point as part of the package -- is available in the
`Elastic guide`_.
.. _Elastic guide: http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/curator/current/index.html
Compatibility
-------------
The Elasticsearch Curator Python API is compatible with Elasticsearch versions 2.x
through 5.0, and supports Python versions 2.6 and later.
Example Usage
-------------
::
import elasticsearch
import curator
client = elasticsearch.Elasticsearch()
ilo = curator.IndexList(client)
ilo.filter_by_regex(kind='prefix', value='logstash-')
ilo.filter_by_age(source='name', direction='older', timestring='%Y.%m.%d', unit='days', unit_count=30)
delete_indices = curator.DeleteIndices(ilo)
delete_indices.do_action()
.. TIP::
See more examples in the :doc:`Examples </examples>` page.
Features
--------
The API methods fall into the following categories:
* :doc:`Object Classes </objectclasses>` build and filter index list or snapshot list objects.
* :doc:`Action Classes </actionclasses>` act on object classes.
* :doc:`Utilities </utilities>` are helper methods.
Logging
~~~~~~~
The Elasticsearch Curator Python API uses the standard `logging library`_ from Python.
It inherits two loggers from ``elasticsearch-py``: ``elasticsearch`` and
``elasticsearch.trace``. Clients use the ``elasticsearch`` logger to log
standard activity, depending on the log level. The ``elasticsearch.trace``
logger logs requests to the server in JSON format as pretty-printed ``curl``
commands that you can execute from the command line. The ``elasticsearch.trace``
logger is not inherited from the base logger and must be activated separately.
