Addedit
Fluent Syntaxedit
client.Alias(a => a
.Add(add => add
.Index("myindex")
.Alias("myalias")
)
);
Object Initializer Syntaxedit
var request = new AliasRequest
{
Actions = new IAliasAction[]
{
new AliasAddAction
{
Add = new AliasAddOperation { Index = "myindex", Alias = "myalias" }
}
}
};
client.Alias(request);
Removeedit
Fluent Syntaxedit
client.Alias(a => a
.Remove(remove => remove
.Index("myindex")
.Alias("myalias")
)
);
Object Initializer Syntaxedit
var request = new AliasRequest
{
Actions = new IAliasAction[]
{
new AliasRemoveAction
{
Remove = new AliasRemoveOperation { Index = "myindex", Alias = "myalias" }
}
}
};
client.Alias(request);
Renameedit
To rename an alias, just do an Add and a Remove in the same operation. Elasticsearch will then atomically rename your alias:
Fluent Syntaxedit
client.Alias(a => a
.Add(add => add
.Index("myindex")
.Alias("newalias")
)
.Remove(remove => remove
.Index("myindex")
.Alias("oldalias")
)
);
Object Initializer Syntaxedit
var request = new AliasRequest
{
Actions = new IAliasAction[]
{
new AliasAddAction
{
Add = new AliasAddOperation { Index = "myindex", Alias = "myalias" }
},
new AliasRemoveAction
{
Remove = new AliasRemoveOperation { Index = "myindex", Alias = "myalias" }
}
}
};
client.Alias(request);
