README

This project has been created to experiment with Elasticsearch on Rails. You need to have an Elasticsearch server for Elasticsearch to work. I set up this server in a Docker container. If you don't want to use Docker, you should research how to install Elasticsearch on your operating system.

Usage

1. To run the project:

   docker build -t elastic-search-rails .
   # then
   docker compose up

2. Visit 'http://localhost:9200' and you will see something like this:
