n种elasticsearch按照日期定时批量删除索引

     使用elkstack作为日志分析工具，采集nginx访问日志，项目log日志，心跳检测日志，服务器度量日志等，每天产生大量索引(Index)，占用磁盘空间。对于过期数据需要进行删除来释放磁盘空间。

使用官网_delete_by_query进行删除

官网文档--Delete By Query API

curl -u 用户名:密码  -H'Content-Type:application/json' -d'{
    "query": {
        "range": {
            "@timestamp": {
                "lt": "now-7d",
                "format": "epoch_millis"
            }
        }
    }
}
' -XPOST "http://127.0.0.1:9200/*-*/_delete_by_query?pretty"

解释

-u是格式为userName:password，使用Basic Auth进行登录。如果elasticsearch没有使用类似x-pack进行安全登录，则不需要加-u参数

-H是指定文档类型是json格式

-XPOST是指定用POST方式请求

-d是指定body内容

{
    "query": {
        "range": { //范围
            "@timestamp": {//时间字段
                "lt": "now-7d",//lt是小于(<)，lte是小于等于(<=),gt是大于(>),gte是大于等于(>=),now-7d是当前时间减7天
                "format": "epoch_millis"
            }
        }
    }
}

定时删除

$ crontab -e

* 0 * * * /usr/bin/curl -u username:password  -H'Content-Type:application/json' -d'{"query":{"range":{"@timestamp":{"lt":"now-7d","format":"epoch_millis"}}}}' -XPOST "http://127.0.0.1:9200/*-*/_delete_by_query?pretty" > /tmp/elk_clean.txt

每天0点删除超过7天的无效索引

优点：

• 不依赖第三方插件或者代码

• 简单易理解

• 不需要指定索引名称可用*通配符删除

缺点：

• 效率低

使用sh脚本删除

在stackoverflow看到一个帖子 Removing old indices in elasticsearch#answer-39746705

#!/bin/bash
searchIndex=logstash-monitor
elastic_url=logging.core.k94.kvk.nl
elastic_port=9200

date2stamp () {
    date --utc --date "$1" +%s
}

dateDiff (){
    case $1 in
        -s)   sec=1;      shift;;
        -m)   sec=60;     shift;;
        -h)   sec=3600;   shift;;
        -d)   sec=86400;  shift;;
        *)    sec=86400;;
    esac
    dte1=$(date2stamp $1)
    dte2=$(date2stamp $2)
    diffSec=$((dte2-dte1))
    if ((diffSec < 0)); then abs=-1; else abs=1; fi
    echo $((diffSec/sec*abs))
}

for index in $(curl -s "${elastic_url}:${elastic_port}/_cat/indices?v" |     grep -E " ${searchIndex}-20[0-9][0-9]\.[0-1][0-9]\.[0-3][0-9]" | awk '{     print $3 }'); do
  date=$(echo ${index: -10} | sed 's/\./-/g')
  cond=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
  diff=$(dateDiff -d $date $cond)
  echo -n "${index} (${diff})"
  if [ $diff -gt 1 ]; then
    echo " / DELETE"
    # curl -XDELETE "${elastic_url}:${elastic_port}/${index}?pretty"
  else
    echo ""
  fi
done

使用了 _cat/indicesapi。

使用 curator

支持windowszip,msi,和linuxapt,yum

      Delete indices older than 7 days (based on index name), for logstash-
      prefixed indices. Ignore the error if the filter does not result in an
      actionable list of indices (ignore_empty_list) and exit cleanly.
    options:
      ignore_empty_list: True
      timeout_override:
      continue_if_exception: False
      disable_action: False

这里是用index-'%Y.%m.%d'进行匹配，如果是按照索引创建日期来删除，source: creation_date 参见 www.elastic.co/guide/en/el…

3.运行

curator --config /path/config_file.yml /path/action_file.yml
