Aborting a requestedit
When using the callback style API, the function will also return an object that allows you to abort the API request.
// calback API
const request = client.search({
index: 'my-index',
body: {
query: {
match: { hello: 'world' }
}
}
}, {
ignore: [404],
maxRetries: 3
}, (err, { body }) => {
if (err) console.log(err)
})
request.abort()
Aborting a request with the promise style API is not supported, but you can easily achieve that with convenience wrapper.
function abortableRequest (params, options) {
var request = null
const promise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
request = client.search(params, options, (err, result) => {
err ? reject(err) : resolve(res)
})
})
return {
promise,
abort: () => request.abort()
}
}
const request = abortableRequest({
index: 'my-index',
body: {
query: {
match: { hello: 'world' }
}
}
}, {
ignore: [404],
maxRetries: 3
})
request.abort()
// access the promise with `request.promise.[method]`
