Create index in Elastic Search by Java API

Question

I used following code for creating index in Elastic Search, Default JAVA API:

Settings settings = ImmutableSettings.settingsBuilder().put("cluster.name", "myClusterName").put("client.transport.sniff", true).build();
Client client = new TransportClient(settings).addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress("localhost", 9200));
CreateIndexRequestBuilder createIndexRequestBuilder = client.admin().indices().prepareCreate("test1");
CreateIndexResponse response = createIndexRequestBuilder.execute().actionGet();
System.out.println(response.isAcknowledged());  

REST Service:

HttpURLConnection con = null;
try
{
    String url = "http://localhost:9200/test2";

    URL resturl = new URL(url);
    con = (HttpURLConnection) resturl.openConnection();

    con.setDoOutput(true);
    con.setRequestMethod("PUT");
    BufferedReader in = null;
    try
    {
        if (con.getInputStream() != null)
        {
            in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
        }
    }
    catch (IOException e)
    {
        if (con.getErrorStream() != null)
        {
            in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getErrorStream()));
        }
    }
    if (in == null)
    {
        throw new Exception("Unable to read response from server");
    }
    StringBuffer decodedString = new StringBuffer();
    String line;
    while ((line = in.readLine()) != null)
    {
        decodedString.append(line);
    }
    in.close();
    System.out.println("4");
    Integer responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
    System.out.println(responseCode);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    ex.printStackTrace();
}
finally
{
    if (con != null)
    {
        con.disconnect();
    }
}

By using REST API, I am able to create index. By default JAVA API, I am getting the following Exception.

org.elasticsearch.client.transport.NoNodeAvailableException: No node available
at org.elasticsearch.client.transport.TransportClientNodesService.execute(TransportClientNodesService.java:202)

at ElasticSearch.createIndex(ElasticSearch.java:121)

Please guide me where I made mistake. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

The port for TransportClient(via java API) is different than Http By default, transportClient port is 9300

Answer 2

With replicas and shards settings:

Settings indexSettings = ImmutableSettings.settingsBuilder()
                 .put("number_of_shards", 1)
                 .put("number_of_replicas", 1)
                 .build();
CreateIndexRequest indexRequest = new CreateIndexRequest(index, indexSettings);
client.admin().indices().create(indexRequest).actionGet();
