ElasticSearch Python Client ReadTimeout

异常和报错

ElasticSearch Python Client API，Bulk操作时，当ElasticSearch服务端的性能不足时，Client可能会超时，打印类似异常：

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

解决办法

简单的解决方法是加入timeout和重试相关参数（参考：https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25908484/how-to-fix-read-timed-out-in-elasticsearch）

Increase the default timeout Globally when you create the ES client by passing the timeout parameter. Example in Python

es = Elasticsearch(timeout=30, max_retries=10, retry_on_timeout=True)

Set the timeout per request made by the client. Taken from Elasticsearch Python docs below.

only wait for 1 second, regardless of the client's default

es.cluster.health(wait_for_status='yellow', request_timeout=1)

我设置timeout=100，max_retries=3，因为，当ElasticSearch在做大量查询的时候，会消耗掉所有的读IO，此时bluk数据，可能POST成功，但等待服务端返回确认结果timeout了，如果timeout时间设置太短，而max_retries设置太多，会导致数据重复插入max_retries次。

API参数介绍

>>> help(elasticsearch.Elasticsearch)

Help on class Elasticsearch in module elasticsearch.client:
class Elasticsearch(__builtin__.object)
| Elasticsearch low-level client. Provides a straightforward mapping from
| Python to ES REST endpoints.
| __init__(self, hosts=None, transport_class=<class 'elasticsearch.transport.Transport'>, **kwargs)
| :arg hosts: list of nodes we should connect to. Node should be a
| dictionary ({"host": "localhost", "port": 9200}), the entire dictionary
| will be passed to the :class:`~elasticsearch.Connection` class as
| kwargs, or a string in the format of ``host[:port]`` which will be
| translated to a dictionary automatically. If no value is given the
| :class:`~elasticsearch.Urllib3HttpConnection` class defaults will be used.
|
| :arg transport_class: :class:`~elasticsearch.Transport` subclass to use.
|
| :arg kwargs: any additional arguments will be passed on to the
| :class:`~elasticsearch.Transport` class and, subsequently, to the
| :class:`~elasticsearch.Connection` instances.


>>> help(elasticsearch.Transport)

Help on class Transport in module elasticsearch.transport:
class Transport(__builtin__.object)
| Encapsulation of transport-related to logic. Handles instantiation of the
| individual connections as well as creating a connection pool to hold them.
|
| Main interface is the `perform_request` method.
|
| Methods defined here:
|
| __init__(self, hosts, connection_class=<class 'elasticsearch.connection.http_urllib3.Urllib3HttpConnection'>, connection_pool_class=<class 'elasticsearch.connection_pool.ConnectionPool'>, host_info_callback=<function get_host_info>, sniff_on_start=False, sniffer_timeout=None, sniff_timeout=0.1, sniff_on_connection_fail=False, serializer=<elasticsearch.serializer.JSONSerializer object>, serializers=None, default_mimetype='application/json', max_retries=3, retry_on_status=(502, 503, 504), retry_on_timeout=False, send_get_body_as='GET', **kwargs)
| :arg max_retries: maximum number of retries before an exception is propagated
| :arg retry_on_status: set of HTTP status codes on which we should retry
| on a different node. defaults to ``(502, 503, 504)``
| :arg retry_on_timeout: should timeout trigger a retry on different
| node? (default `False`)
|
| Any extra keyword arguments will be passed to the `connection_class`
| when creating and instance unless overriden by that connection's
| options provided as part of the hosts parameter.

这里显示，默认max_retries为3，retry_on_timeout为False，retry_on_status为(502, 503, 504)。

>>> help(elasticsearch.connection.http_urllib3.Urllib3HttpConnection)

Help on class Urllib3HttpConnection in module elasticsearch.connection.http_urllib3:
class Urllib3HttpConnection(elasticsearch.connection.base.Connection)
| Default connection class using the `urllib3` library and the http protocol.
|
| :arg host: hostname of the node (default: localhost)
| :arg port: port to use (integer, default: 9200)
| :arg url_prefix: optional url prefix for elasticsearch
| :arg timeout: default timeout in seconds (float, default: 10)

可以看出，这里原来默认timeout只有10秒。
