通过Python脚本删除elasticsearch索引时的TransportError

Question

我已经在我的elasticsearch2.1.1计算机中安装了windows，我有一个弹性搜索索引，它本地托管在我的计算机上，因为我试图更好地理解它。索引的名称是library。下面是它的样子。

我正在尝试使用python库elasticsearch删除现有索引，以下是执行此操作的代码。

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
es = Elasticsearch('localhost:9200')
if es.indices.exists(index='library'):
    es.delete('library')

当我执行此代码时，我最终得到以下错误。

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TransportError                            Traceback (most recent call last)

      1 from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
      2 es = Elasticsearch('localhost:9200')
----> 3 if es.indices.exists(index='library'):
      4     es.delete('library')

    223         return self.transport.perform_request('HEAD', _make_path(index),

编辑：我按照Slam的建议尝试并使用下面的代码

a = elasticsearch.client.IndicesClient('localhost:9200')
a.delete(index = 'library')

但是，我现在收到如下新错误

Elasticsearch.delete用于删除文档，而不是索引。

要对idex进行操作，您需要IndicesClient.delete。 Indices客户端是在基本ES客户端之上工作的抽象，具有相同的传输。调用可以是

>>> es = Elasticsearch('localhost:9200')
>>> es.indices.delete(index='test')
{'acknowledged': True}
