在Elasticsearch-php客户端上使用https

Question

I am currently trying to connect to my elastic search cluster using the php elasticsearch client

I am having trouble using an https endpoint for this. I have my cluster behind a load balancer with a VIP in front, it is using Apache authentication and is on port 443. The trouble I am running into is that the config for the client seems to be parsing the hosts and removes https:// from the host name. this results in the client always trying to connect over port 80. I have tried adding :443 to the host name but I am then getting a curl error "empty reply from server". I know that this server has access (no firewall blocking) because i can manually make the curl call using https://myelasticsearch.com .

My question is, is there a way to specify the protocol to make the request over using this client? if not, where in the source is the parsing of the host array happening?

Answer 1

I have found a temporary solution, in src/Elasticsearch/Connections/AbstractConnection.php there is a defined transportSchema variable that is set to http . I changed this to https and also added the :443 to my host in the config and it works!

Answer 2

Just as an update to this question (in case anyone stumbles into it), this bug was fixed in Elasticsearch-PHP v1.1.0. You can specify https in the host now to use SSL:

$params = array();
$params['hosts'] = array (
    'https://localhost',        // SSL to localhost
    'https://192.168.1.3:9200'  // SSL to IP + Port
);

$client = new Elasticsearch\Client($params);
