Dump all documents of Elasticsearch

Is there any way to create a dump file that contains all the data of an index among with its settings and mappings?

A Similar way as mongoDB does with mongodump
or as in Solr its data folder is copied to a backup location.

Cheers!

Solution 1:

Here's a new tool we've been working on for exactly this purpose https://github.com/taskrabbit/elasticsearch-dump. You can export indices into/out of JSON files, or from one cluster to another.

Solution 2:

Elasticsearch supports a snapshot function out of the box:

Solution 3:

For your case Elasticdump is the perfect answer.
First, you need to download the mapping and then the index

# Install the elasticdump 
npm install elasticdump -g

# Dump the mapping 
elasticdump --input=http://<your_es_server_ip>:9200/index --output=es_mapping.json --type=mapping

# Dump the data
elasticdump --input=http://<your_es_server_ip>:9200/index --output=es_index.json --type=data    

If you want to dump the data on any server I advise you to install esdump through docker. You can get more info from this website Blog Link
