This document is to help you connect an Elasticsearch server, or service, to your Circulation Manager so user's can search the library's collection.

Required Information

To create a Search integration, you need to know the URL (IP address or hostname and any port number) required to connect to the search server. If you are following our guide to creating a test Circulation Manager instance, the URL will typically be a local one: http://172.17.0.2:9200. For an AWS deployment, where the you are using the AWS ES service, the URL will have the form: .

 

Configure the Search Integration

Configure the Elasticsearch service integration for the Circulation Manager:

  1. Click the Search sidebar item.
  2. Click the Create a new search service item.
  3. Enter a descriptive name for the service, such as Elasticsearch indexing server
  4. Currently only the Elasticsearch server is supported, so the default Protocol item is appropriate.
  5. Enter the URL to your Elasticsearch service:
    1. for testing Virtualbox and Linode (single-server) implementations, enter the internal container IP-based URL: <search URL from above>
    2. for testing AWS implementations using the AWS ES service, enter the URL to the Elasticsearch server as shown in your ES service console
    3. otherwise, use the appropriate URL to your Elasticsearch server instance
  6. Unless there is a local reason to change it, leave the default Elasticsearch index name as circulation-works.
  7. Click the Submit button.
