Mac uninstall elasticsearch

gistfile1.txt

#!/usr/bin/env sh

# checks to see if running 
launchctl list | grep elasticsearch
 
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.elasticsearch.plist
launchctl remove homebrew.mxcl.elasticsearch

pkill -f elasticsearch

rm -f ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.elasticsearch.plist

brew uninstall elasticsearch

# double check existence
ls -al /usr/local/bin/elasticsearch*
ls -al ~/Library/LaunchAgents

Note to self: I followed this in order to cleanly upgrade from 090 to 2.x and since I had incompatible index mappings I needed to delete all the data before I was able to cleanly start the newer version.

Same things Here.
To find your data just brew info elasticsearch and check where the data folder is stored.

Thanks ... nice commands.
All worked well but in my case i installed ES 2.2 and then downgraded to 1.7 and when i do

mukesh@ in ~/Office/intl on master [?$]$ ls -al ~/Library/LaunchAgents  (still shows 2.x ref , how can i remove this ref )

Just wanted to add one more thing after uninstall elasticsearch/logstash/kibana with above commands, please remove those directories from /usr/local/etc and then try to install them from scratch again. Above commands work well to uninstall but without removing ELK directories it will not allow user to reinstall ELK stack properly.

I had to remove data, logs, plugins and config for brew elasticsearch to work properly

rm -rf /usr/local/var/lib/elasticsearch/
rm -rf /usr/local/var/log/elasticsearch/elasticsearch_account.log
rm -rf /usr/local/var/elasticsearch/plugins/
rm -rf /usr/local/etc/elasticsearch/

thanks
