Maven Repository

Here is how you can configure the dependency using maven as a dependency manager. Add the following to your pom.xml file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client</artifactId>
    <version>6.5.4</version>
</dependency>

Here is how you can configure the dependency using gradle as a dependency manager. Add the following to your build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    compile 'org.elasticsearch.client:elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client:6.5.4'
}

The very first releases of any major version (like a beta), might have been built on top of a Lucene Snapshot version. In such a case you will be unable to resolve the Lucene dependencies of the client.

For example, if you want to use the 6.0.0-beta1 version which depends on Lucene 7.0.0-snapshot-00142c9, you must define the following repository.

For Maven:

<repository>
    <id>elastic-lucene-snapshots</id>
    <name>Elastic Lucene Snapshots</name>
    <url>http://s3.amazonaws.com/download.elasticsearch.org/lucenesnapshots/00142c9</url>
    <releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
    <snapshots><enabled>false</enabled></snapshots>
</repository>

For Gradle:

maven {
    url 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/download.elasticsearch.org/lucenesnapshots/00142c9'
}
