IndexΒΆ

The index API is very similar to the Java index API. The Groovy extension to it is the ability to provide the indexed source using a closure. For example:

def indexR = client.index {
    index "test"
    type "type1"
    id "1"
    source {
        test = "value"
        complex {
            value1 = "value1"
            value2 = "value2"
        }
    }
}

In the above example, the source closure itself gets transformed into an XContent (defaults to JSON). In order to change how the source closure is serialized, a global (static) setting can be set on the GClient by changing the indexContentType field.

Note also that the source can be set using the typical Java based APIs, the Closure option is a Groovy extension.
