This commit clarifies the interaction between settings specified in a
create index request, and those that would come from any templates that
apply to the create index request.
Relates #26994
* Allows for an array of index template patterns to be provided to an
index template, and rename the field from 'template' to 'index_pattern'.
Closes#20690
Adds infrastructure so `gradle :docs:check` will extract tests from
snippets in the documentation and execute the tests. This is included
in `gradle check` so it should happen on CI and during a normal build.
By default each `// AUTOSENSE` snippet creates a unique REST test. These
tests are executed in a random order and the cluster is wiped between
each one. If multiple snippets chain together into a test you can annotate
all snippets after the first with `// TEST[continued]` to have the
generated tests for both snippets joined.
Snippets marked as `// TESTRESPONSE` are checked against the response
of the last action.
See docs/README.asciidoc for lots more.
Closes#12583. That issue is about catching bugs in the docs during build.
This catches *some* bugs in the docs during build which is a good start.
Closes#17513
The current example in the documentation for Index Templates lacks any properties values. This is helpful to many devs that aren't sure how to take a regular Index Mapping and convert it to a template.
As a follow up to #10870, this removes support for
index templates on disk. It also removes a missed
place still allowing disk based mappings.
closes#11052
I've been attempting to programatically verify that adding index templates via the `{path.conf}/templates/` directory works fine although I was never able to validate this via an API call to the `/_template/`. It seems that these templates do not appear in that API call, which I discovered in the following mail thread:
http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Loading-of-index-settings-template-from-file-in-config-templates-td4024923.html#d1366317284000-912
My question is why wouldn't the `/_template/*` method return these templates? This tends to complicate things for those that want to perform automated tests to verify that they are in fact being recognized and used by Elasticsearch.
The possibility of filtering for index templates in the cluster state API
had been introduced before there was a dedicated index templates API. This
commit removes this support from the cluster state API, as it was not really
clean, requiring you to specify the metadata and the index templates.
Closes#4954
/_template shows: No handler found for uri [/_template] and method [GET]
It would make sense to list the templates as they are listed in the /_cluster/state call.
Closes#2532.
