Read timeout error while using elastic search python package

Question

I have installed elasticsearch python package and I have created a elastic clustere. I am using below python code to send data to elastic cloud:

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch, RequestsHttpConnection
import time
import datetime

es = Elasticsearch(['70.19.172.110:9200'],http_auth=('<username>','<password>'))

for x in range(0,5):
    es.index(index='test', doc_type='json', id=x, body={
    'data1':"Hello World',
    'value':325,
    'time': datetime.datetime.now()

    })

    print("Data sent {} ".format(x))
    time.sleep(60)

So as you can see in the code I am sending the data with the interval of 1min time.sleep(60). This works fine and all the 5 data's are in the elasticsearch. Then I changed the time.sleep(60) to time.sleep(300) and it gave me below error:

elasticsearch.exceptions.ConnectionTimeout: ConnectionTimeout caused by - ReadTimeoutError(HTTPConnectionPool(host='70.19.172.110', port=9200): Read timed out. (read timeout=10))

Is there anything which I am doing wrong. Is there any way I can keep connected to the elasticsearch so that I dont't through these types of errors.

Thanks.

because the default timeout of Elasticsearch is 10 Second, Your Connection dont Reasch the host , you have 10 second for connect to the host Before Elasticsearch close the connection for Timeout — Skiller Dz

@SkillerDz Thanks, so you mean to say I have to do es = Elasticsearch(['70.19.172.110:9200'],http_auth=('<username>','<password>')) each time I am sending the data. But then how did it worked when I used 60sec.? — S Andrew

es.index(index='test', doc_type='json', id=x, body={ 'data1':"Hello World', 'value':325, 'time': datetime.datetime.now() 'timeout':30 # The time of the Time Out }) — Skiller Dz

@SkillerDz I didnt get it. So you mean to say, for 5 min timeout, I have to add 300 as timeout value. Can you answer the question with explaination, so that I can also accept it — S Andrew

try to Up the timeout of es.index , because Elasticsearch are limited to 10 secondes of timeout , if on 30 Secondes it will not respond that mean your Host arn't connected or dont respond to the request

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch, RequestsHttpConnection
import time
import datetime
timenow = datetime.datetime.now()

es = Elasticsearch(['70.19.172.110:9200'],http_auth=('<username>','<password>'))

for x in range(0,5):
   es.index(index='test', doc_type='json', id=x, body={
   'data1':"Hello World",
   'value':325,
   'time':timenow,
   'timeout':30, # The Time Of timeout you want

    })

print("Data sent {} ".format(x))
time.sleep(60)

I tryed The Script With the Ip My Routeur 192.168.1.1:80 with port 80 and the script worked fine with me , i think the probleme are on the host who you are tryng to reach , mabe the port 9200 are closed try another port
