Below is example to get Cluster Detail in Java Object by using Elasticsearch REST Java client. Here client will call endpoint  “/_cluster/health” to retrieve all detail of index list. It is same as we use GET by CURL

GET http://elasticsearchHost:9200/_cluster/health

Pre-requisite

• Minimum requirement for Java 7 version required.
• Add below dependency for Elasticsearch REST and JSON Mapping in your pom.xml or add in your class path.

Dependency

<!--Elasticsearch REST jar-->
<dependency>
			<groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
			<artifactId>rest</artifactId>
			<version>5.1.2</version>
</dependency>
<!--Jackson jar for mapping json to Java -->
<dependency>
			<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
			<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
			<version>2.8.5</version>
</dependency>

				// in Http Entity
				HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
				ObjectMapper jacksonObjectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
				// Map json response to Java object in ClusterInfo
				// Cluster Info

				System.out.println(clusterHealth);
			}

		} catch (Exception ex) {
			System.out.println("Exception found while getting cluster detail");
			ex.printStackTrace();
		} finally {
			closeConnnection(client);
		}

	}

	// Get Rest client connection
	private static RestClient openConnection() {
		RestClient client = null;
		try {
			final CredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
			credentialsProvider.setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY, new UsernamePasswordCredentials("userId", "password"));
			client = RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("elasticHost", Integer.parseInt("9200")))
					.setHttpClientConfigCallback(new RestClientBuilder.HttpClientConfigCallback() {
						// Customize connection as per requirement
						public HttpAsyncClientBuilder customizeHttpClient(HttpAsyncClientBuilder httpClientBuilder) {
							return httpClientBuilder
									// Credentials
									.setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credentialsProvider)
									// Proxy
									.setProxy(new HttpHost("ProxyServer", 8080));

						}
					}).setMaxRetryTimeoutMillis(60000).build();

		} catch (Exception ex) {
			ex.printStackTrace();
		}
		return client;
	}

	// Close Open connection
	private static void closeConnnection(RestClient client) {
		if (client != null) {
			try {
				client.close();
			} catch (IOException ex) {
				ex.printStackTrace();
			}
		}
	}

}
