NAME

Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::Hijk - A Cxn implementation which uses Hijk

VERSION

version 5.01

DESCRIPTION

Provides an HTTP Cxn class based on Hijk. The Hijk backend is pure Perl and is very fast, faster even that Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::NetCurl, but doesn't provide support for https or proxies.

This class does Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn, whose documentation provides more information, and Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Is_Sync.

CONFIGURATION

connect_timeout

Unlike most HTTP backends, Hijk accepts a separate connect_timeout parameter, which defaults to 2 seconds but can be reduced in an environment with low network latency.

Inherited configuration

From Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn

SSL/TLS

Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::Hijk does not support HTTPS.

METHODS

perform_request()

    ($status,$body) = $self->perform_request({
        # required
        method      => 'GET|HEAD|POST|PUT|DELETE',
        path        => '/path/of/request',
        qs          => \%query_string_params,

        # optional
        data        => $body_as_string,
        mime_type   => 'application/json',
        timeout     => $timeout
    });

Sends the request to the associated Elasticsearch node and returns a $status code and the decoded response $body, or throws an error if the request failed.
