Documentation

To make Elastica more friendly for new starters and also experience Elastica users, the documentation has to be extended. Be it the API documentation directly in the code or documentation on Elastica.io. To contribute to Elastica.io, you have to the following steps:

  • Fork the Elastica.io repository
  • Get Elastica.io locally running
  • Create and update the pages as needed
  • Open a pull request on Elastica.io

If you only want to edit a small part of a page, Github also allows to edit files directly online.

Fixing open issues

There are always lots of open issues which are waiting to get fixed or implemented. In case one of the issues is for you, please pick it up, fork the project, fix it and open a pull request (guidelines)

Review pull requests

There are always open pull requests which need reviewing, contributions, inputs and comments.

Add new features

Elasticsearch is under heavy development which means Elastica also has to evolve very fast. Not all features of elasticsearch are already supported in Elastica. To add new features, fork the project on Github, add your changes and open a pull request (guidelines). To make sure no one else is already working on the same feature, open a an issue for it.
