barnacles-elasticsearch

Elasticsearch interface for barnacles open source software. Stores raddec and/or dynamb and/or spatem events in Elasticsearch.

• Version 1.1 expects an Elasticsearch 8.x instance, but should be backwards-compatible with 7.x nonetheless
• Version 1.0 expects an Elasticsearch 7.x instance (see release-1.0 branch)

Installation

npm install barnacles-elasticsearch

Hello barnacles-elasticsearch

The following code will write simulated raddec data to Elasticsearch running a local server (default port 9200). The simulated data is provided by barnowl which is typically run in conjunction with barnacles. Install the barnowl, barnacles and barnacles-elasticsearch packages using npm before running the code.

const Barnowl = require('barnowl');
const Barnacles = require('barnacles');
const BarnaclesElasticsearch = require('barnacles-elasticsearch');

let barnowl = new Barnowl();
barnowl.addListener(Barnowl, {}, Barnowl.TestListener, {});

let barnacles = new Barnacles({ barnowl: barnowl });
barnacles.addInterface(BarnaclesElasticsearch, { /* See options below */ });

Options

barnacles-elasticsearch supports the following options:

| Property | Default | Description | |:--------------|:---------------------------|:-------------------------------| | node | "http://localhost:9200" | Elasticsearch node | | clientOptions | null | Object of parameters for client instantiation | | client | null | An instantiated Elasticsearch client | | printErrors | false | Print errors to the console (for debug) | | eventsToStore | { raddec: {}, dynamb: {}, spatem: {} } | See default event-specific properties below | | esVersion | 8 | Can be forced to 7 if required |

For raddec events, all raddec toFlattened() options are supported. The default is { includePackets: false }.

By default barnacles-elasticsearch will connect and write to localhost:9200.

Connecting to an Elastic Cloud instance

Connecting to the Elastic Cloud is straightforward using the clientOptions as follows:

const clientOptions = {
    cloud: { id: "copy-paste from Elastic Cloud dashboard" },
    auth: {
        username: "pareto-anywhere",
        password: "password"
    }
}
barnacles.addInterface(BarnaclesElasticsearch, { clientOptions: clientOptions });

Connecting to a self-hosted instance

See the Elasticsearch JavaScript client API documentation on connecting to select the appropriate clientOptions for your instance.
