NAME
Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::LWP - A Cxn implementation which uses LWP
VERSION
version 1.17
DESCRIPTION
Provides an HTTP Cxn class and based on LWP. The LWP backend uses pure Perl and persistent connections.
This class does Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn::HTTP, whose documentation provides more information, Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn and Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Is_Sync.

SSL/TLS
Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::LWP uses IO::Socket::SSL to support HTTPS. By default, no validation of the remote host is performed.
This behaviour can be changed by passing the ssl_options parameter with any options accepted by IO::Socket::SSL. For instance, to check that the remote host has a trusted certificate, and to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks, you could do the following:
use Search::Elasticsearch;
use IO::Socket::SSL;
my $es = Search::Elasticsearch->new(
cxn => 'LWP',
nodes => [
"https://node1.mydomain.com:9200",
"https://node2.mydomain.com:9200",
],
ssl_options => {
SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_PEER,
SSL_ca_file => '/path/to/cacert.pem',
SSL_verifycn_scheme => 'http',
}
);If you want your client to present its own certificate to the remote server, then use:
use Search::Elasticsearch;
use IO::Socket::SSL;
my $es = Search::Elasticsearch->new(
cxn => 'LWP',
nodes => [
"https://node1.mydomain.com:9200",
"https://node2.mydomain.com:9200",
],
ssl_options => {
SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_PEER,
SSL_ca_file => '/path/to/cacert.pem',
SSL_verifycn_scheme => 'http',
SSL_cert_file => '/path/to/client.pem',
SSL_key_file => '/path/to/client.pem',
}
);METHODS
perform_request()
($status,$body) = $self->perform_request({
# required
method => 'GET|HEAD|POST|PUT|DELETE',
path => '/path/of/request',
qs => \%query_string_params,
# optional
data => $body_as_string,
mime_type => 'application/json',
timeout => $timeout
});Sends the request to the associated Elasticsearch node and returns a $status code and the decoded response $body, or throws an error if the request failed.
