Action Classes

It is important to note that each action has a do_action() method, which accepts no arguments. This is the means by which all actions are executed.

Alias

class curator.actions.Alias(name=None, extra_settings={}, **kwargs)

Define the Alias object.

Parameters:
actions = None

The list of actions to perform. Populated by curator.actions.Alias.add and curator.actions.Alias.remove

add(ilo, warn_if_no_indices=False)

Create add statements for each index in ilo for alias, then append them to actions. Add any extras that may be there.

Parameters:ilo – A curator.indexlist.IndexList object
body()

Return a body string suitable for use with the update_aliases API call.

client = None

Instance variable. The Elasticsearch Client object derived from ilo

do_action()

Run the API call update_aliases with the results of body()

do_dry_run()

Log what the output would be, but take no action.

extra_settings = None

Instance variable. Any extra things to add to the alias, like filters, or routing.

name = None

Instance variable The strftime parsed version of name.

remove(ilo, warn_if_no_indices=False)

Create remove statements for each index in ilo for alias, then append them to actions.

Parameters:ilo – A curator.indexlist.IndexList object

Allocation

class curator.actions.Allocation(ilo, key=None, value=None, allocation_type='require', wait_for_completion=False, timeout=30)
Parameters:
  • ilo – A curator.indexlist.IndexList object

  • value – An arbitrary metadata attribute value. Must correspond to values associated with key assigned to at least some of your nodes to have any effect.
  • allocation_type – Type of allocation to apply. Default is require
  • wait_for_completion (bool) – Wait (or not) for the operation to complete before returning. (default: False)
  • timeout – Number of seconds to wait_for_completion
bkey = None

ClusterRouting

class curator.actions.ClusterRouting(client, routing_type=None, setting=None, value=None, wait_for_completion=False, timeout=30)

Parameters:
  • client – An elasticsearch.Elasticsearch client object
  • routing_type – Type of routing to apply. Either allocation or rebalance
  • setting – Currently, the only acceptable value for setting is enable. This is here in case that changes.
