A great start is by studying and writing plugins. Elasticsearch is one of the rare masterpieces of software that allow to plug in code that you have authored to extend functionality, without forking the main code base.
There are a lot of plugins out there with small code base and easy to study, e.g. on github. A very nice side effect is that you can open source your plugins so you can give something back to the community, and also have more eyes on your code to find and fix bugs. Like Ivan already said, if you want to dive deeper into the ES API, look at the ES tests. The Java test code base is extensive and covers almost all use cases. You will find usage examples of the API all over the place. Jörg On Sun, Oct 5, 2014 at 5:44 PM, ahmed jamal maaz <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am a newbie to elasticsearch and lucene.
