Exist requests are supposed to never throw an exception, but rather return true or false depending on whether some resource exists or not. Indices exists does that for indices and accepts wildcard expressions too. The way the api works internally is by resolving indices and catching IndexNotFoundException: if an exception is thrown the index does not exist hence it returns false, otherwise it returns true. That works ok only if ignore_unavailable and allow_no_indices indices options are both set to false, meaning that they are strict and any missing index or wildcard expressions that resolves to no indices will lead to an exception that can be thrown and cause false to be returned.
Unfortunately the indices options have been configurable up until now for this request, meaning that one can set ignore_unavailable or allow_no_indices to true and have the indices exist request return true for indices that really don't exist, which makes very little sense in the context of this api.
This commit removes the indicesOptions setter from the IndicesExistsRequest and makes settable only expandWildcardsOpen and expandWildcardsClosed, hence a subset of the available indices options. This way we can guarantee more consistent behaviour of the indices exists api. We can then remove the ignore_unavailable and allow_no_indices option from indices exists api spec
Moves the `_flush` in the `_cat/indices` snippets testing framework
to the very first test. We need to flush super early because index
size is cached for a few seconds so we really need to read a
consistent size on the first read so we can sort by it properly.
Closes#21062
This commit introduces a new execution mode for the query_string query, which
is intended down the road to be a replacement for the current _all field.
It now does auto-field-expansion and auto-leniency when the following criteria
are ALL met:
The _all field is disabled
No default_field has been set in the index settings
No default_field has been set in the request
No fields are specified in the request
Additionally, a user can force the "all-like" execution by setting the
all_fields parameter to true.
When executing in all field mode, the query_string query will look at all the
fields in the mapping that are not metafields and can be searched, and
automatically expand the list of fields that are going to be queried.

Plugins: Remove pluggability of ZenPing
ZenPing is the part of zen discovery which knows how to ping nodes.
There is only one alternative implementation, which is just for testing.
This change removes the ability to add custom zen pings, and instead
hooks in the MockZenPing for tests through an overridden method in
MockNode. This also folds in the ZenPingService (which was really just a
single method) into ZenDiscovery, and removes the idea of having
multiple ZenPing instances. Finally, this was the last usage of the
ExtensionPoint classes, so that is also removed here.
Currently the default S3 buffer size is 100MB, which can be a lot for small
heaps. This pull request updates the default to be 100MB for heaps that are
greater than 2GB and 5% of the heap size otherwise.
The important settings docs previously referred to a section regarding
the node.max_local_storage_nodes setting. This section was removed, but
the link was not. This commit removes that link.
Previously node.max_local_storage_nodes defaulted to fifty, and this
permitted users to start multiple instances of Elasticsearch sharing the
same data folder. This can be dangerous, and usually it does not make
sense to run more than one instance of Elasticsearch on a single
server. Because of this, we had a note in the important settings docs
advising users to set this setting to one. However, we have since
changed the default value of this setting to one so this advise is no
longer needed.

Lucene 6.2 introduces the new `Analyzer.normalize` API, which allows to apply
only character-level normalization such as lowercasing or accent folding, which
is exactly what is needed to process queries that operate on partial terms such
as `prefix`, `wildcard` or `fuzzy` queries. As a consequence, the
`lowercase_expanded_terms` option is not necessary anymore. Furthermore, the
`locale` option was only needed in order to know how to perform the lowercasing,
so this one can be removed as well.
Closes#9978
This change adds an option called `split_on_whitespace` which prevents the query parser to split free text part on whitespace prior to analysis. Instead the queryparser would parse around only real 'operators'. Default to true.
For instance the query `"foo bar"` would let the analyzer of the targeted field decide how the tokens should be splitted.
Some options are missing in this change but I'd like to add them in a follow up PR in order to be able to simplify the backport in 5.x. The missing options (changes) are:
* A `type` option which similarly to the `multi_match` query defines how the free text should be parsed when multi fields are defined.
* Simple range query with additional tokens like ">100 50" are broken when `split_on_whitespace` is set to false. It should be possible to preserve this syntax and make the parser aware of this special syntax even when `split_on_whitespace` is set to false.
* Since all this options would make the `query_string_query` very similar to a match (multi_match) query we should be able to share the code that produce the final Lucene query.
* Add docs with up to date instructions on updating default similarity
The default similarity can no longer be set in the configuration file
(you will get an error on startup). Update the docs with the method
that works.
* Add instructions for changing similarity on index creation
It was 10mb and that was causing trouble when folks reindex-from-remoted
with large documents.
We also improve the error reporting so it tells folks to use a smaller
batch size if they hit a buffer size exception. Finally, adds some docs
to reindex-from-remote mentioning the buffer and giving an example of
lowering the size.
Closes#21185
Refactored ScriptType to clean up some of the variable and method names. Added more documentation. Deprecated the 'in' ParseField in favor of 'stored' to match the indexed scripts being replaced by stored scripts.
Adds support for indexing into lists and arrays with negative
indexes meaning "counting from the back". So for if
`x = ["cat", "dog", "chicken"]` then `x[-1] == "chicken"`.
This adds an extra branch to every array and list access but
some performance testing makes it look like the branch predictor
successfully predicts the branch every time so there isn't a
in execution time for this feature when the index is positive.
When the index is negative performance testing showed the runtime
is the same as writing `x[x.length - 1]`, again, presumably thanks
to the branch predictor.
Those performance metrics were calculated for lists and arrays but
`def`s get roughly the same treatment though instead of inlining
the test they need to make a invoke dynamic so we don't screw up
maps.
Closes#20870
Lucene 6.3 is expected to be released in the next weeks so it'd be good to give
it some integration testing. I had to upgrade randomized-testing too so that
both Lucene and Elasticsearch are on the same version.
Converts docs for `_cat/segments`, `_cat/plugins` and `_cat/repositories`
from `curl` to `// CONSOLE` so they are tested as part of the build and
are cleaner to use in Console. They should work fine with `curl` with
the `COPY AS CURL` link.
Also swaps the `source` type of the response from `js` to `txt` because
that is more correct. The syntax highlighter doesn't care. It looks at
the text to figure out the language. So it looks a little funny for `_cat`
responses regardless.

This change adds a TypesQuery that checks if the disjunction of types should be rewritten to a MatchAllDocs query. The check is done only if the number of terms is below a threshold (16 by default and configurable via max_boolean_clause).
This allows you to whitelist `localhost:*` or `127.0.10.*:9200`.
It explicitly checks for patterns like `*` in the whitelist and
refuses to start if the whitelist would match everything. Beyond
that the user is on their own designing a secure whitelist.

- clarifies that these settings are per index

Removes a non-existant file from the non-`// CONSOLE` list. If you
remove all the non-`// CONSOLE` snippets from a file it must be
removed from the whitelist for the build to pass. Removing the file
entirely counts as removing the snippets.

The shards preference on a search request enables specifying a list of
shards to hit, and then a secondary preference (e.g., "_primary") can be
added. Today, the separator between the shards list and the secondary
preference is ';'. Unfortunately, this is also a valid separtor for URL
query parameters. This means that a preference like "_shards:0;_primary"
will be parsed into two URL parameters: "_shards:0" and "_primary". With
the recent change to strict URL parsing, the second parameter will be
rejected, "_primary" is not a valid URL parameter on a search
request. This means that this feature has never worked (unless the ';'
is escaped, but no one does that because our docs do not that, and there
was no indication from Elasticsearch that this did not work). This
commit changes the separator to '|'.

This change proposes the removal of all non-tcp transport implementations. The
mock transport can be used by default to run tests instead of local transport that has
roughly the same performance compared to TCP or at least not noticeably slower.
This is a master only change, deprecation notice in 5.x will be committed as a
separate change.
Previously, this doc was using a field called "content". This is
confusing, especially when the doc starts talking about the content of
the content field. This change makes the field name "comment" which
is less ambiguous and also changes some related field names in the doc
to make a consistent example theme of editing docs around blog posts.
This causes the snippets to be tested during the build and gives
helpful links to the reader to open the docs in console or copy them
as curl commands.

Today when parsing a request, Elasticsearch silently ignores incorrect
(including parameters with typos) or unused parameters. This is bad as
it leads to requests having unintended behavior (e.g., if a user hits
the _analyze API and misspell the "tokenizer" then Elasticsearch will
just use the standard analyzer, completely against intentions).
This commit removes lenient URL parameter parsing. The strategy is
simple: when a request is handled and a parameter is touched, we mark it
as such. Before the request is actually executed, we check to ensure
that all parameters have been consumed. If there are remaining
parameters yet to be consumed, we fail the request with a list of the
unconsumed parameters. An exception has to be made for parameters that
format the response (as opposed to controlling the request); for this
case, handlers are able to provide a list of parameters that should be
excluded from tripping the unconsumed parameters check because those
parameters will be used in formatting the response.
Additionally, some inconsistencies between the parameters in the code
and in the docs are corrected.

On Windows the JDK uses `CreateFileW` which has a stupidly high

So this isn't really a problem on Windows at all.

today it's not possible to use date-math efficiently with the `_rollover`
API. This change adds support for date-math in the target index as well as
support for preserving the math logic when an existing index that was created with
a date math expression all subsequent indices are created with the same expression.
this change adds a hard limit to `index.number_of_shard` that prevents
indices from being created that have more than 1024 shards. This is still
a huge limit and can only be changed via settings a system property.

Surprise! You can use sliced scroll to easily parallelize reindex
and friend. They support it because they use the same infrastructure
as a regular search to parse the search request. While we would like
to make an "automatic" option for parallelizing reindex, this manual
option works right now and is pretty convenient!
This commit fixes the documentation for configuring the Java I/O temp
dir which incorrectly suggested using the -D flag as a parameter on the
command line; these flags have been removed and should now be specified
as arguments to the JVM using either the ES_JAVA_OPTS environment
variable or using the jvm.options configuration file.

This list is in `build.gradle` because we expect it to be fairly
temporary. In a few months we'll have converted all of the docs and won't
ned it any more.
From now on if you add now docs that contain a snippet that shows an
interaction with elasticsearch you have three choices:
1. Stick `// CONSOLE` on the interactions and `// TESTRESPONSE` on the
responses. The build (specifically (`gradle docs:check`) will test that
these interactions "work". If there isn't a `// TESTRESPONSE` snippet
then "work" just means "Elasticsearch responds with a 200-level response
code and no `WARNING` headers. This is way better than nothing.
2. Add `// NOTCONSOLE` if the snippet isn't actually interacting with
Elasticsearch. This should only be required for stuff like javascript
source code or `curl` against an external service like AWS or GCE. The
snippet will not get "OPEN IN CONSOLE" or "COPY AS CURL" buttons or be
tested.
3. Add `// TEST[skip:reason]` under the snippet. This will just skip the
snippet in the test phase. This should really be reserved for snippets
where we can't test them because they require an external service that
we don't have at testing time.
Please, please, please, please don't add more things to the list. After
all, it sais there'll be cake when we remove it entirely!

We can now run templates using `explain` and/or `profile` parameters.

GET /_search/template
{

"params": {

"explain": true
}

You can use `profile` parameter when running a template:
