How to index MySQL from ElasticSearch

Im trying to add some full text searching to my LAMP web application. Ive come across ElasticSearch and I like what it has to offer. I have read the guides and understand how to index a single item by using curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/.

But how can I index an entire MySQL database? I cannot seem to find anywhere on the web that explains how to do this. Any ideas?

You have to mirror the parts you want searched in elastic search.. you just don't tell elastic search to index a mysql database.

Basically whatever gets put/changed/deleted in mysql also has to do the same in elastic search. You don't have to put all the info just what you want to search on and a way to link it to the mysql info.
