Elasticsearch Python bulk index API example

gistfile1.py

>>> import itertools
>>> import string
>>> from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch,helpers
es = Elasticsearch()
>>> # k is a generator expression that produces
... # a series of dictionaries containing test data.
... # The test data are just letter permutations
... # created with itertools.permutations.
... #
... # We then reference k as the iterator that's
... # consumed by the elasticsearch.helpers.bulk method.
>>> k = ({'_type':'foo', '_index':'test','letters':''.join(letters)}
...      for letters in itertools.permutations(string.letters,2))

>>> # calling k.next() shows examples
... # (while consuming the generator, of course)
>>> # each dict contains a doc type, index, and data (at minimum)
>>> k.next()
{'_type': 'foo', 'letters': 'ab', '_index': 'test'}
>>> k.next()
{'_type': 'foo', 'letters': 'ac', '_index': 'test'}
>>> # create our test index
>>> es.indices.create('test')
{u'acknowledged': True}
>>> helpers.bulk(es,k)
(2650, [])
>>> # check to make sure we got what we expected...
>>> es.count(index='test')
{u'count': 2650, u'_shards': {u'successful': 1, u'failed': 0, u'total': 1}}

I have a use case where I am updating/adding documents using the bulk API call and just after I fire the bulk call I check the ES count using the count API. Problem is there is some delay that happens after firing the bulk call which results in a delay in reflecting the correct count. How do I make sure the correct count reflects after I fire the bulk call?

@tusharkale197 ElasticSearch is near real time database not exact real time database and hence once you index a document changes will be reflected within index.refresh_interval time period default value of which is 1s you can change it accordingly and also if you want you can manually refresh index using refresh api
