importing json file to elasticsearch

Question

I have used

curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9200/<my_index_name>" -d @<absolute_path_to_my_json_file>

Then when I tried to get the data using

curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/<my_index_name>"

its giving me data only for first line of my json file. (including other stuff also - settings, mappings,alias etc). But why is it not able to load the entire json file ? BTW, I am using ES 2.4.0. If I have to use bulk, what is the syntax ?

Instead of -d you need to use --data-binary when sending a file via curl. — Val

Tried using --data-binary. It gives {"acknowledged":true}. But when I use the get command to see the data. It gives empty in second hits. Used this command - curl -XGET "localhost:9200/<my_index_name>/_search?pretty=true" — Kalyanam Rajashree

I wanted to add one more thing here. I was able to see data when I was using ES 1.4.4. Now I changed to 2.4.0. Its not showing me data with .../_search. — Kalyanam Rajashree

Try using these curl -XPUT "http://localhost:9200/<my_index_name>" -d @<absolute_path_to_my_json_file>

GET index does not search actually.

You have also to run something like GET index/_search.
