+
+== Overview
+
+Elasticsearch.pm is the official Perl API for Elasticsearch. The full
+documentation is available on https://metacpan.org/module/Elasticsearch.
+
+It can be installed with:
+
+[source,sh]
+------------------------------------
+cpanm Elasticsearch
+------------------------------------
+
+=== Features
+
+This client provides:
+
+* Full support for all Elasticsearch APIs
+
+* HTTP backend (currently synchronous only - Any::Event support will be added later)
+
+* Robust networking support which handles load balancing, failure detection and failover
+
+* Good defaults
+
+* Helper utilities for more complex operations, such as bulk indexing, scrolled searches and reindexing.
+
+* Logging support via Log::Any
+
+* Compatibility with the official clients for Python, Ruby, PHP and Javascript
+
+* Easy extensibility
+
+== Synopsis

+use Elasticsearch;
+
+# Connect to localhost:9200:
+my $e = Elasticsearch->new();
+
+# Round-robin between two nodes:
+my $e = Elasticsearch->new(
+ nodes => [
+ 'search1:9200',
+ 'search2:9200'
+ ]
+);
+
+# Connect to cluster at search1:9200, sniff all nodes and round-robin between them:
+my $e = Elasticsearch->new(
+ nodes => 'search1:9200',
+ cxn_pool => 'Sniff'
+);
+
+# Index a document:
+$e->index(
+ index => 'my_app',
+ type => 'blog_post',
+ id => 1,
+ body => {
+ title => 'Elasticsearch clients',
+ content => 'Interesting content...',
+ date => '2013-09-24'

+
+# Get the document:
+my $doc = $e->get(
+ index => 'my_app',
+ type => 'blog_post',
+ id => 1
+);
+
+# Search:
+my $results = $e->search(
+ index => 'my_app',
