I'm using Spring Boot 2.0.3 Release and i have problem while instantiating org.elasticsearch.client.Client. My code:

Client client = new PreBuiltTransportClient(Settings.builder()
                .put("cluster.name", clustername)
                .build())
                .addTransportAddress(
new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName(host), port)
);

This code give me the error:

Not all dependencies are satisfied by only adding spring-boot-starter-data-elasticsearch.

It's necessary to explicitly define all remaining dependencies:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
        <artifactId>transport</artifactId>
        <version>${elasticsearch.version}</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.elasticsearch.plugin</groupId>
        <artifactId>transport-netty4-client</artifactId>
        <version>${elasticsearch.version}</version>
    </dependency>

If you've declared a parent, most likely <version> tag can be omitted.
