Submitting user feedback data to Elasticsearch

Question

I'm trying to use this angular bootstrap feedback form to collect user feedback data and index the information to Elasticsearch (to make it searchable).

So in my searchService for Elasticsearch, I simply did:

this.userSearchFeedback = function (userFeedbackForm) {
    esClient.index({
      index: 'searchfeedback-index1',
      type: 'general',
      opType: 'index',
      refresh: true,
      body: {
        fields: ['comments', 'email']
      }
    }).then(function(es_return) {
      console.log('success');
    }, function(error) {
      console.log('error');
    });
  };

userFeedbackForm is the name of the form, which looks like this:

    <div class="row">
    <div class="col-xs-12">
      <div class="alert alert-info" role="alert">
        We would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on what we get right and wrong - it helps us improve our services to you. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us get better!
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-lg-6">
      <!-- DESCRIPTION -->
      <div class="form-group">
        <pre>Model: {{comments | json}}</pre>
        <label for="description_field" class="control-label">Comment:</label>
        <textarea class="form-control" placeholder="Please describe your issue or share your feedback!" name="comments" ng-model="comments" style="min-height: 165px;"></textarea>
      </div>
      <!-- /DESCRIPTION -->
      <!-- EMAIL -->
      <div class="form-group">
        <pre>Model: {{email | json}}</pre>
        <label for="email_field" class="control-label">Email:</label>
        <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Email" name="email" ng-model="email" />
      </div>
      <!-- /EMAIL -->
    </div>

I've added ng-models for both inputs and added those in my controller

//initialize feedback form
$scope.feedback = {
  comments: '',
  email: ''
};

The module already comes with a function that is called from ng-click on the form template...

function submitButtonPressed(form) {
console.log("Submit button pressed");
console.log(form);
console.log($scope.feedback.comments);//added
console.log($scope.feedback.email);//added

and that is where I'm stuck.

What else do I need to do with the function in order for it to call the userSearchFeedback() in my searchService so that the form data can be indexed to ES?

Answer 1

After just trial and error with the above posted. I decided to look to see if there was something else available. There is and its amazingly simple to implement. Just add the url to submit to and your done! Had it up and running in just a few minutes (once I realized I had to supply a url).

HTH anyone.
