asStream
Instead of getting the parsed body back, you will get the raw Node.js stream of data.
'use strict'
const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
const client = new Client({
cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
})
async function run () {
const bulkResponse = await client.bulk({
refresh: true,
operations: [
// operation to perform
{ index: { _index: 'game-of-thrones' } },
// the document to index
{
character: 'Ned Stark',
quote: 'Winter is coming.'
},
{ index: { _index: 'game-of-thrones' } },
{
character: 'Daenerys Targaryen',
quote: 'I am the blood of the dragon.'
},
{ index: { _index: 'game-of-thrones' } },
{
character: 'Tyrion Lannister',
quote: 'A mind needs books like a sword needs a whetstone.'
}
]
})
if (bulkResponse.errors) {
console.log(bulkResponse)
process.exit(1)
}
// Let's search!
const result = await client.search({
index: 'game-of-thrones',
query: {
match: {
quote: 'winter'
}
}
}, {
asStream: true
})
let payload = ''
result.setEncoding('utf8')
for await (const chunk of result) {
payload += chunk
}
console.log(JSON.parse(payload))
}
run().catch(console.log)
Tip
This can be useful if you need to pipe the Elasticsearch's response to a proxy, or send it directly to another source.
