django-elasticsearch-dsl with AWS elasticsearch

Question

I'm trying to use AWS ElasticBeanStalk to deploy a Django app using django-elasticsearch-dsl and I need to run ./manage.py search_index --rebuild the first time I load it. So within my container commands I've got:

03_elasticsearch:
  command: "source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && ./src/manage.py search_index --rebuild"

The problem is it is waiting for a n/Y to the question Are you sure you want to delete the 'hjsm-local' indexes? [n/Y]:

How do I rebuild my indecies?

UPDATE

When I use

03_elasticsearch:   
    command: "source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && ./src/manage.py search_index --rebuild -f"

I get this error

Traceback (most recent call last):

As per the source code, include the -f parameter in your command to force the acceptance of the prompt.

I've tried that but I get the attached error when I do that

Chathan Driehuys Over a year ago

@HenryM are you able to delete and then rebuild the indices? If so, that would indicate there's an error in the way the app rebuilds indices.

HenryM Over a year ago

I don't know elasticsearch and I'm just trying to set it up. When I run locally using a local elasticsearch it works so I think the issue is with how I'm connecting to AWS elasticsearch or how I've set up the aws elasticsearch

Chathan Driehuys Over a year ago

@HenryM I mean what happens if you add another command before the one that's failing where you run manage.py search_index --delete -f before you do the rebuild one.

I don't run --delete because it does that as part of rebuild. other commands work fine (for example manage.py migrate). It is crashing when trying to create the index
