== Overview
An official Go client for Elasticsearch.
Full documentation is hosted at https://github.com/elastic/go-elasticsearch[GitHub]
and https://godoc.org/github.com/elastic/go-elasticsearch[GoDoc]
-- this page provides only an overview.
=== Elasticsearch Version Compatibility
The client major versions correspond to the Elasticsearch major versions:
to connect to Elasticsearch `6.x`, use a `6.x` version of the client,
to connect to Elasticsearch `7.x`, use a `7.x` version of the client, and so on.
The `master` branch of the client is compatible with the `master` branch of Elasticsearch.
=== Installation
Add the package to your `go.mod` file:
[source,text]
------------------------------------
require github.com/elastic/go-elasticsearch/v7 7.x
------------------------------------
=== Usage
[source,go]
------------------------------------
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/elastic/go-elasticsearch/v7"
)
func main() {
es, _ := elasticsearch.NewDefaultClient()
log.Println(es.Info())
}
------------------------------------
