NAME

Search::Elasticsearch::Plugin::XPack::6_0::Security - Plugin providing Security API for Search::Elasticsearch 6.x

VERSION

version 6.00

SYNOPSIS

    use Search::Elasticsearch();

    my $es = Search::Elasticsearch->new(
        nodes    => \@nodes,
        plugins  => ['XPack'],
        userinfo => "username:password"
    );

    my $response = $es->xpack->security->authenticate();

DESCRIPTION

This class extends the Search::Elasticsearch client with a security namespace, to support the Security APIs. In other words, it can be used as follows:

    use Search::Elasticsearch();
    my $es = Search::Elasticsearch->new(
        nodes    => \@nodes,
        plugins  => ['XPack'],
        userinfo => "username:password"
    );

    my $response = $es->xpack->security->authenticate(...);

The full documentation for the Security feature is available here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/xpack-security.html
