elastic search client using R packages

I am using elastic search as data store. In my project i need to analyze the elastic search data using R. In java i did these operations using es client. But i couldn't find any packages in R that support elastic search operations. I have tried using RCurl packages like this: 

count <- fromJSON(getURL("http://localhost:9200/myindex/mytype/_count"))

But this is not i want. Is there any packages in CRAN or other repositories that perform elastic search operations?

Thanks

Solution

  • I've been working on an elasticsearch R client here https://github.com/ropensci/elastic

    There's a bunch of examples here https://github.com/ropensci/elastic#quick-start

    It is alpha software though, so expect changes. I'll try to get alot of work done on it next month.

    Would love pull requests.
