I have installed elasticsearch with brew install elasticsearch. My plugins seem to reside in /usr/local/Cellar/elasticsearch/0.19.8/plugins. With cat $( which plugin ) I see a ES_HOME variable that contains the correct path.
Is there a way to ask elastic for ES_HOME or the plugins directory?
What I am looking for is the directory used by the plugin executable to install the plugins when I do plugin -install something. I want to use that path in a script to fire up elastic search.

Use the elasticsearch-plugin command line tool to install, list, and remove plugins. It is located in the $ES_HOME/bin directory by default but it may be in a different location depending on which Elasticsearch package you installed: Directory layout of . tar.
You can also check which plugins are installed by looking into plugins directory in elastic installation directory.
Once you locate your ElasticSearch home folder, in my case /usr/share/elasticsearch , cd down to that location. Once there, you could simply run bin/plugin -install elasticsearch/elasticsearch-analysis-phonetic/1.3. 0 and it will automatically do the rest for you. Hope this helps.
To find your elasticsearch home directory & install plugin(s) follow these steps below.
Locate your home directory ( Look for Settings -> Path -> Home for value )
$ curl "localhost:9200/_nodes/settings?pretty=true" Goto Location (Example settings.path.home value: /usr/local/Cellar/elasticsearch/1.5.0)
$ cd /usr/local/Cellar/elasticsearch/1.5.0 Install Plugin (Example plugin: mobz/elasticsearch-head)
$ bin/plugin -install mobz/elasticsearch-head I used this command:
$ curl "localhost:9200/_nodes?pretty=true&settings=true" Check next setting: nodes - settings - path - plugins and use it as your plugins directory.
