Using Python/Elasticsearch package to clone a index

Question

So there is instruction on clone ES index: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-clone-index.html.

But I can't find it how to do it using the Python/elasticsearch package. Can someone show example please?

Answer 1

It seems you are one API call way, as per the doc

This should look like:

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch

client = Elasticsearch(....)

index="index-1"
target="index-1-cloned"

client.indices.clone(index, target)
