Compatibility

The current version of OpenSearch Client has been tested with the following configuration:

• PHP 7.4-8.x
• Opensearch 2.x

Installation

The library can be installed via Composer:

composer require friendsofcat/opensearch-client

Configuration

To change the client settings you need to publish the configuration file first:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="OpenSearch\Laravel\Client\ServiceProvider"

In the newly created config/opensearch.client.php file you can define the default connection name.

return [
    'default' => env('OPENSEARCH_CONNECTION', 'default'),
    'connections' => [
        'default' => [
            'hosts' => [
                env('OPENSEARCH_HOST', 'localhost:9200'),
            ],
            // you can also set HTTP client options (which is Guzzle by default) as follows
            'httpClientOptions' => [
                'timeout' => 2,
            ],
        ],
    ],
];

If you need more control over the client creation, you can create your own client builder:

// see OpenSearch\Laravel\Client\ClientBuilder for the reference
class MyClientBuilder implements OpenSearch\Laravel\Client\ClientBuilderInterface
{
    public function default(): Client
    {
        // should return a client instance for the default connection 
    }
    
    public function connection(string $name): Client
    {
        // should return a client instance for the connection with the given name 
    }
}

Do not forget to register the builder in your application service provider:

class MyAppServiceProvider extends Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider
{
    public function register()
    {
        $this->app->singleton(ClientBuilderInterface::class, MyClientBuilder::class);
    }
}

Usage

Use OpenSearch\Laravel\Client\ClientBuilderInterface to get access to the client instance:

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use OpenSearch\Client;
use OpenSearch\Laravel\Client\ClientBuilderInterface;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;

class CreateIndex extends Command
{
    protected $signature = 'create:index {name}';

    protected $description = 'Creates an index';

    public function handle(ClientBuilderInterface $clientBuilder)
    {
        // get a client for the default connection
        $client = $clientBuilder->default();
        // get a client for the connection with name "write"
        $client = $clientBuilder->connection('write');
    
        $client->indices()->create([
            'index' => $this->argument('name')
        ]);
    }
}
