Hi.
I am currently using ROR Enterprise Kibana plugin. This has been very useful as we can apply settings changes without a restart on the Elasticsearch node. On the other hand, we have an automation process to deploy the ROR changes. However, we still need a human to access Kibana and click on Reload from file and Save. Is there an authenticated API Rest that could be used for that action?
Thanks in advance.
Ola Gustavo!
Great suggestion, we should expose “Reload from file” functionality to our new API as well. @Dzuming should be easy, let’s add it to Jira!
From file? I don’t think it’s a good idea.
@gustavo.yoshizaki do you really use an “in-file” configuration?
Maybe the current ReadonlyREST API is enough for your needs?
Yeah IDK exactly the use case of @gustavo.yoshizaki and why they have to step through file updating and then reloading from file. As he described it, it does look like a peculiar choice.
The idea of having the API equipotent with the GUI makes sense though.
ok, maybe I didn’t understand the use case.
We can bootstrap ROR node using reasonlyrest.yml file. In the Enterprise version of ROR, you can use in-index settings to have one source of truth for the settings and auto-reloading.
I guess @gustavo.yoshizaki uses it and by writing “Realod from file” he meant “Save in-index settings”.
And in ROR 1.50.0 we introduced Readonlyrest API in ROR Kibana. It has two endpoints for uploading new ROR settings to all nodes (in-index mode is used). The two endpoints differ slightly - one requires passing ROR settings in the body as yaml and the other uses file upload.
I think we have all @gustavo.yoshizaki needs.
Hi team.
Correct, I want to implement an automation based on the same mechanism that the UI provides. The ability to update the settings saved on an ES Index.
Great, I will wait for the 1.50.0 version.
Thanks!
It’s already out, go get it till it’s hot!
