Script with Playground
Datashare Playground delivers a collection of Bash scripts (free of external dependencies) that streamline interaction with a Datashare instance’s Elasticsearch index and Redis queue.
From cloning or replacing whole indices and reindexing specific directories, to adjusting replica settings, monitoring or cancelling long-running tasks, and queuing files for processing, Playground implements each capability through intuitive shell scripts organized under the elasticsearch/ and redis/ directories.
To get started, set ELASTICSEARCH_URL and REDIS_URL in your environment (or add them to a .env file at the repo root). For a comprehensive guide to script options, directory layout, and example workflows, see the full documentation on Github:

This step can take some time if your index has plenty of documents.
3. Replace the old index by the new one:
4. Delete the temporary index:
