First, download the Search-UI’s starter app from github by
curl https://codeload.github.com/elastic/app-search-reference-ui-react/tar.gz/master | tar -xz
and should appear as a folder called app-search-reference-ui-react-main.
Navigate to the root to the folder and install the dependencies using the following command:
yarn
Within the folder, we can now install the @elastic/search-ui-elasticsearch-connector library with Yarn.
yarn add @elastic/search-ui-elasticsearch-connector
Make sure to check and update Search UI dependencies to the latest version. You can find the latest version by going to NPM’s page for @elastic/search-ui.
Open the project within your favorite editor.
Within src/App.js, change line 3 to import the Elasticsearch connector. You no longer need the app-search connector.
import ElasticsearchAPIConnector from "@elastic/search-ui-elasticsearch-connector";
and then update the options to the connector
const connector = new ElasticsearchAPIConnector({
cloud: {
id: "<my-elastic-cloud-id>"
},
apiKey: "<api-key>",
index: "my-example-movies"
});
If you’re using Elastic Cloud, you can find your cloud id within your deployment’s details.
alternatively, if you’re using an on-premise Elasticsearch instance, you can connect via specifying the host.
const connector = new ElasticsearchAPIConnector({
host: "http://localhost:9200",
index: "my-example-movies"
});
