The get request allows us to retrieve a document from an index by id. The format is simple.
val resp = client.execute {
get id 8 from "beer/lager"
}Which would return the document with id 8 from the beer index with type lager.
Like the other requests we can use a tuple to specifiy the index/type eg.
val resp = client.execute {
get id 8 from "beer" -> "lager"
}You can specify a version, which means the GET will only succeed if the version matches.
val resp = client.execute {
get id 8 from "beer" -> "lager" version 12
}If the document exists with version 12 then this will return a result, otherwise it will return no results.
Other options are realtime, routing, preference, versionType, fetchSourceContext. For more details on what these do, consult the official elasticsearch documents here.
