Client/APIedit

Extending or replacing the API that Elasticsearch.js provides is a simple as it should be in JS. To provide an entirely new API, just add it to the Client constructor’s api property like so:

var myApi = {
  getDog: function () { ... }
};

elasticsearch.Client.apis.mine = myApi;

var client = new elasticsearch.Client({
  apiVersion: 'mine'
});

client.getDog( ... );

When the client is created, its prototype is set to the API version selected, and therefore you can access the client via the this variable within your API methods. Make requests within your methods using this.transport.request(params, cb). For more information about the transport, see Transport.
