elasticcurl

Attempt at enabling elasticsearch snapshot / restore using python. Inspired by elasticdump, a similar Node.js application.

Use

• Copy an index from production to staging:
  • elasticcurl.py --input http://production.es.com:9200/ --output http://staging.es.com:9200/
• Backup an index to a file:
  • elasticcurl.py --input http://production.es.com:9200/ --output es.json
• Backup ALL indices, then populate another ES cluster:
  • elasticcurl.py --input http://staging.es.com:9200/ --output es.json
  • elasticcurl.py --input es.json --output http://production.es.com:9200/

Options

• --input (required) (see above)
• --output (required) (see above)
• --limit how many objects to move per batch (default: 10000)
