Create an indexedit

The index operations are all contained under a distinct namespace, separated from other methods that are on the root client object. As an example, let’s create a new index:

$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
$params = [
    'index' => 'my_index'
];

// Create the index
$response = $client->indices()->create($params);


You can specify any parameters that would normally be included in a new index creation API. All parameters that would normally go in the request body are located in the body parameter:

$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
$params = [
    'index' => 'my_index',
    'body' => [
        'settings' => [
            'number_of_shards' => 3,
            'number_of_replicas' => 2
        ],
        'mappings' => [
            'my_type' => [
                '_source' => [
                    'enabled' => true
                ],
                'properties' => [
                    'first_name' => [
                        'type' => 'keyword',
                        'analyzer' => 'standard'
                    ],
                    'age' => [
                        'type' => 'integer'
                    ]
                ]
            ]
        ]
    ]
];


// Create the index with mappings and settings now
$response = $client->indices()->create($params);
