# Install/Update template Install the `task` template in elasticsearch: ``` shell INSTANCE=http://something:9200 TEMPLATE_NAME=template_swh_tasks curl -i -H'Content-Type: application/json' -d@./elastic-template.json -XPUT ${INSTANCE}/_template/${TEMPLATE_NAME} ``` # Update index settings The index setup is fixed and defined on the template settings basis. When that setup needs to change, we need to update both the template and the existing indices. To update index settings: ``` shell INDEX_NAME=swh-tasks-2017-11 curl -i -H'Content-Type: application/json' -d@./update-index-settings.json -XPUT ${INSTANCE}/${INDEX_NAME}/_settings ```
