How to install ICU plugin for elastic search 6.1?

Question

The command given in official documentation is not working for me. the command is:

./bin/plugin -install elasticsearch/elasticsearch-analysis-icu/$VERSION

replaced $VERSION as 2.7.0

./bin/plugin -install elasticsearch/elasticsearch-analysis-icu/2.7.0

I am running the command from the elastic search home directory.

~/elasticsearch-6.1.1$

Answer 1

You must be referring to outdated documentation.

The correct way to install the ICU analysis plugin on 6.1.1 is described here , ie run this command from our $ES_HOME folder

bin/elasticsearch-plugin install analysis-icu
