== Namespaces
The client has a number of "namespaces", which generally expose administrative
functionality. The namespaces correspond to the various administrative endpoints
in Elasticsearch. This is a complete list of namespaces:
[width="40%",options="header",frame="topbot"]
|============================
| Namespace | Functionality
| `indices()` | Index-centric stats and info
| `nodes()` | Node-centric stats and info
| `cluster()` | Cluster-centric stats and info
| `snapshot()` | Methods to snapshot/restore your cluster and indices
| `cat()` | Access to the Cat API (which is generally used standalone from the command line
|============================
Some methods are available in several different namespaces, which give you
the same information but grouped into different contexts. To see how these
namespaces work, let's look at the `_stats` output:
[source,php]
----
$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
// Index Stats
// Corresponds to curl -XGET localhost:9200/_stats
$response = $client->indices()->stats();
// Node Stats
// Corresponds to curl -XGET localhost:9200/_nodes/stats
$response = $client->nodes()->stats();
// Cluster Stats
// Corresponds to curl -XGET localhost:9200/_cluster/stats
$response = $client->cluster()->stats();
----
{zwsp} +
As you can see, the same `stats()` call is made through three different
namespaces. Sometimes the methods require parameters. These parameters work
just like any other method in the library.
For example, we can request index stats about a specific index, or multiple
indices:
[source,php]
----
$client = ClientBuilder::create()->build();
// Corresponds to curl -XGET localhost:9200/my_index/_stats
$params['index'] = 'my_index';
$response = $client->indices()->stats($params);
// Corresponds to curl -XGET localhost:9200/my_index1,my_index2/_stats
$params['index'] = array('my_index1', 'my_index2');
$response = $client->indices()->stats($params);
----
{zwsp} +
As another example, here is how you might add an alias to an existing index:
[source,php]
----
$params['body'] = array(
'actions' => array(
array(
'add' => array(
'index' => 'myindex',
'alias' => 'myalias'
)
)
)
);
$client->indices()->updateAliases($params);
----
Notice how both the `stats` calls and the updateAlias took a variety of parameters,
each according to what the particular API requires. The `stats` API only requires
an index name(s), while the `updateAlias` requires a body of actions.
