A Node.js binding for Amazon's Elasticsearch service which requires Amazon's Signature Version 4.
AWS-ES is a Node.js binding for Amazon's Elasticsearch service which requires Amazon's Signature Version 4.
The binding is almost identical to the 'elasticsearch' package to guarantee minimal changes in the code when moving from your Elasticsearch server to Amazon's Elasticsearch service. Currently, it supports the basic functionalities but they can probably get your app up and running in no-time.
This package was initially created to be used by Notify.ly and Crowd Analyzer. But you can use it as you like, under the Apache 2.0 license.
First, install the aws-es package.
npm install aws-es --save
Require the package:
var Elasticsearch = require('aws-es');

elasticsearch = new Elasticsearch({
accessKeyId: yourAccessKeyId,

service: 'es',

host: yourServiceHost
});

console.log('json reply received');
});
elasticsearch.index({

console.log('json reply received');
