Configure plugin automatically

Open kalwar opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Would it be possible to configure plugin automatically without providing "server URL" and other indexes etc. manually?

I think it would be useful improvements to have.

Not sure what you mean in this case. By default the server url should be the url where you loaded the plugin from. What indexes should I configure? That is up to the user.

Thanks for asking more info.

I thought if it would be possible to autodetect the server URL and the indexes without the user input. It might be a great addition since there is no need to configure the plugin then.

But the server URL should be configured automatically, it uses localhost on your local machine. It uses localhost if you take the hosted version on gridshore.nl, and it should take the name of the server where you installed the plugin into. As for the indexes, not sure what you need to configure? In which screen do you need to configure an index? You mean the title and description? They are only auto configured if you have these fields in the index under test. Which is hard if you have multiple indices.

SO I am sorry, but I still do not understand where you would like to have more automation. If the server host and port do not work, than I have somehow introduced a bug, so I will test it myself as well.

Sorry for the late response. In the picture below, would it be possible to somehow detect the localhost elasticsearch instance without asking users to input the server url?

So for example in place of "Server url" detect that the elasticsearch is running on port 9200 automatically and only include the indexes or exclude the indexes.
