Extending an existing Connection Classedit
Like many other components, you can completely replace the Connection object with your own. The easiest way to do this is to over-ride one of the existing connection classes:
namespace MyProject;
class MyConnection extends \Elasticsearch\Connections\GuzzleConnection {
/**
* Perform an HTTP request on the cluster
*
* @param string $method HTTP method to use for request
* @param string $uri HTTP URI to use for request
* @param null|string $params Optional URI parameters
* @param null|string $body Optional request body
* @param array $options
*
* @return array
*/
public function performRequest($method, $uri, $params = null, $body = null, $options = array())
{
// do pre-request stuff
$response = parent::performRequest($method, $uri, $params, $body, $options);
// do post-request stuff
return $response;
}
}
This allows you to leverage the existing boilerplate and just over-ride the methods that you wish to tinker with. You can then use your new class by specifying it at instantiation.
$params['connectionClass'] = '\MyProject\MyConnection'; $client = new Elasticsearch\Client($params);
