本来用源码安装，首先要安装git,python,jdk，还要配环境特别繁琐，好不容易安装好后运行报如下错误，在官网和github搜不到解决方案，无奈之下只能用docker安装。
[ERROR] Cannot race. Error in load generator [0]Cannot run task [create-index]: Request returned an error. Error type: transport, Description: class_cast_exception ({'error': {'root_cause': [{'type': 'class_cast_exception', 'reason': 'java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.util.Map'}], 'type': 'class_cast_exception', 'reason': 'java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.util.Map'}, 'status': 500})
下面是我从知乎上搜到的安装教程改良后的步骤(原来的步骤不完全，也有很多问题，自行修改后总结):
esrally用docker安装教程
参考：docker安装esrally
1.安装docker–随便搜都有，也可参考上方链接，此文只阐述安装esrally
2.下载镜像
链接：https://pan.baidu.com/s/1FNs7dLbtE3aDZFbMlI_INQ提取码：o2gh
3.加载镜像
docker load -i tensorflow_image.docker
4.创建相关目录
mkdir -p /home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/rally-tutorial/
mkdir -p /home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/single/
5.建立相关文件
1）在/home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/single/下新建一个index.json文件
{"settings": {"index.number_of_replicas": 0},"mappings": {"docs": {"dynamic": "strict","properties": {"geonameid": {"type": "long"},"name": {"type": "text"},"latitude": {"type": "double"},"longitude": {"type": "double"},"country_code": {"type": "text"},"population": {"type": "long"}}}}
}
2）同样目录下建立track.json文件–(注：这里原文文件有问题运行报错，建议用我这里的文件)
{"version": 2,"description": "Tutorial benchmark for Rally","data-url": "http://benchmarks.elasticsearch.org.s3.amazonaws.com/corpora/geonames","indices": [{"name": "geonames","body": "index.json","types": [ "docs" ]}],"corpora": [{"name": "rally-tutorial","base-url": "https://rally-tracks.elastic.co/geonames", "documents": [{"source-file": "documents-2.json.bz2","document-count": 11396503,"compressed-bytes": 265208777,"uncompressed-bytes": 3547613828}]}],"schedule": [{"operation": {"operation-type": "delete-index"}},{"operation": {"operation-type": "create-index"}},{"operation": {"operation-type": "cluster-health","request-params": {"wait_for_status": "green"},"retry-until-success": true}},{"operation": {"operation-type": "bulk","bulk-size": 5000},"warmup-time-period": 120,"clients": 8},{"operation": {"operation-type": "force-merge"}},{"operation": {"name": "query-match-all","operation-type": "search","body": {"query": {"match_all": {}}}},"clients": 8,"warmup-iterations": 1000,"iterations": 1000,"target-throughput": 100}]
}6.下载数据集
cd /home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/single/
curl -o documents-2.json.bz2 http://benchmarks.elasticsearch.org.s3.amazonaws.com/corpora/geonames/documents-2.json.bz2
(直接访问http这个网址下载了再传到linux也可以)
7.测试运行
chmod -R 777 /home/test/rally/
(必须授权不然docker运行会报错，后续还需要授权一次)
docker run -v /home/test/rally/:/rally/.rally/ elastic/rally list tracks --track-path=/rally/.rally/benchmarks/data/single
正常情况下运行出来如图
8.正式运行
cp /home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/single/* /home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/rally-tutorial/
(这一步应该是将测试和真实数据分开，重新拷贝一份)
docker run --privileged -v /home/test/rally/:/rally/.rally/ elastic/rally race --pipeline=benchmark-only --target-hosts=ip:9200 --track-path=/rally/.rally/benchmarks/data/rally-tutorial --client-options="basic_auth_user:'**',basic_auth_password:'**'" --offline
这一步会通过documents-2.json.bz2生成documents-2.json和documents-2.json.offset文件，这两个文件运行是没有权限的，所以可能会报错需要重新授权，如果报错继续执行
chmod -R 777 /home/test/rally/benchmarks/data/rally-tutorial/
再次执行docker正式运行命令，没问题能够启动
它这个测试集有点少所以测试项很少，正在研究更多测试项中。。。
