ElasticSearch - Index a large file using Java API

We have a requirement wherein we have to use ElasticSearch for performing full text search. We have a Spring based application and for integration with ES we can use either Java API of Elastic Search or Spring Data for ElasticSearch.

The input will be of a file type having size around 5MB.

I went through examples for both ES Java API and SpringData, they do have tutorials available for inserting a JSON document.

But any help with regards to using File as an input to create documents/index is not available.

I am newbie with Elastic Search, any guidance/help on this will be much appreciated.

EDIT:

I could see that there is a Ingest Attachment Processor plugin available in ES (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/master/ingest-attachment.html).

Can anybody point me to a sample CURL request to use this plugin or any Java code to use this plugin

1.You may use Elasticsearch mapper attachments plugin. This plugin uses Apache Tika to ingest almost any well known type of document and make it searchable by Elasticsearch.

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/2.3/mapper-attachments.html

2.You can use Apache Tika to extract useful content from file and use elasticsearch Bulk Indexing api to index to ES

Hope that helps
