Originally I put the X-Pack info object into the top level rest client
object. I did that because we thought we'd like to squash `xpack` from
the name of the X-Pack APIs now that it is part of the default
distribution. We still kind of want to do that, but at least for now we
feel like it is better to keep the high level rest client aligned with
the other language clients like C# and Python. This shifts the X-Pack
info API to align with its json spec file.
Relates to #31870
This is the first x-pack API we're adding to the high level REST client
so there is a lot to talk about here!
= Open source
The *client* for these APIs is open source. We're taking the previously
Elastic licensed files used for the `Request` and `Response` objects and
relicensing them under the Apache 2 license.
The implementation of these features is staying under the Elastic
license. This lines up with how the rest of the Elasticsearch language
clients work.
= Location of the new files
We're moving all of the `Request` and `Response` objects that we're
relicensing to the `x-pack/protocol` directory. We're adding a copy of
the Apache 2 license to the root fo the `x-pack/protocol` directory to
line up with the language in the root `LICENSE.txt` file. All files in
this directory will have the Apache 2 license header as well. We don't
want there to be any confusion. Even though the files are under the
`x-pack` directory, they are Apache 2 licensed.
We chose this particular directory layout because it keeps the X-Pack
stuff together and easier to think about.
= Location of the API in the REST client
We've been following the layout of the rest-api-spec files for other
APIs and we plan to do this for the X-Pack APIs with one exception:
we're dropping the `xpack` from the name of most of the APIs. So
`xpack.graph.explore` will become `graph().explore()` and
`xpack.license.get` will become `license().get()`.
`xpack.info` and `xpack.usage` are special here though because they
don't belong to any proper category. For now I'm just calling
`xpack.info` `xPackInfo()` and intend to call usage `xPackUsage` though
I'm not convinced that this is the final name for them. But it does get
us started.
= Jars, jars everywhere!
This change makes the `xpack:protocol` project a `compile` scoped
dependency of the `x-pack:plugin:core` and `client:rest-high-level`
projects. I intend to keep it a compile scoped dependency of
`x-pack:plugin:core` but I intend to bundle the contents of the protocol
jar into the `client:rest-high-level` jar in a follow up. This change
has grown large enough at this point.
In that followup I'll address javadoc issues as well.
= Breaking-Java
This breaks that transport client by a few classes around. We've
traditionally been ok with doing this to the transport client.
This is a followup to #31537. It makes a number of changes requested by
a review that came after the PR was merged. These are mostly cleanups
and doc improvements.
This PR does the server side work for adding the Get Index API to the REST
high-level-client, namely moving resolving default settings to the
transport action. A follow up would be the client side changes.
The test could sometimes generate an empty array of random stored fields
to fetch which would cause the test to fail. It is fine not to allow
empty here because we already randomize whether or not to generate the
stored fields param anyway.
Added support to the high-level rest client for the create snapshot API call. This required
several changes to toXContent which may need to be cleaned up in a later PR. Also
added several parsers for fromXContent to be able to retrieve appropriate responses
along with tests.
While the other two ranking evaluation metrics (precicion and reciprocal rank)
already provide a more detailed output for how their score is calculated, the
discounted cumulative gain metric (dcg) and its normalized variant are lacking
this until now. Its not really clear which level of detail might be useful for
debugging and understanding the final metric calculation, but this change adds a
`metric_details` section to REST output that contains some information about the
evaluation details.
With #29331 we added support for the cluster health API to the
high-level REST client. The transport client does not support the level
parameter, and it always returns all the info needed for shards level
rendering. We have maintained that behaviour when adding support for
cluster health to the high-level REST client, to ease migration, but the
correct thing to do is to default the high-level REST client to
`cluster` level, which is the same default as when going through the
Elasticsearch REST layer.
The default wait_for_active_shards is NONE for cluster health, which
differs from all the other API in master, hence we need to make sure to
set the parameter whenever it differs from NONE (0). The test around
this also had a bug, which is why this was not originally uncovered.

This commit removes all the API methods that accept a `Header` varargs
argument, in favour of the newly introduced API methods that accept a
`RequestOptions` argument.
Relates to #31069
The response currently implements ToXContentFragment although the only time it's used
it is supposed to print out a complete object rather than a fragment. Note that this
is the client version of the response, used only in the high-level client.
Given the weirdness of the response returned by the get alias API, we went for a client specific response, which allows us to hold the error message, exception and status returned as part of the response together with aliases. See #30536 .

* Initial commit of rest high level exposure of cancel task
* fix javadocs
* address some code review comments
* update branch to use tasks namespace instead of cluster
* High-level client: list tasks failure to not lose nodeId
This commit reworks testing for `ListTasksResponse` so that random
fields insertion can be tested and xcontent equivalence can be checked
too. Proper exclusions need to be configured, and failures need to be
tested separately. This helped finding a little problem, whenever there
is a node failure returned, the nodeId was lost as it was never printed
out as part of the exception toXContent.
* added comment
* merge from master
* re-work CancelTasksResponseTests to separate XContent failure cases from non-failure cases
* remove duplication of logic in parser creation
* code review changes
* refactor TasksClient to support RequestOptions
* add tests for parent task id
* address final PR review comments, mostly formatting and such
With #30490 we have introduced a new way to provide request options
whenever sending a request using the high-level REST client. Before you
could provide headers as the last argument varargs of each API method,
now you can provide `RequestOptions` that in the future will allow to
provide more options which can be specified per request.
This commit deprecates all of the client methods that accept a `Header`
varargs argument in favour of new methods that accept `RequestOptions`
instead. For some API we don't even go through deprecation given that
they were not released since they were added, hence in that case we can
just move them to the new method.
This modifies the high level rest client to allow calling code to
customize per request options for the bulk API. You do the actual
customization by passing a `RequestOptions` object to the API call
which is set on the `Request` that is generated by the high level
client. It also makes the `RequestOptions` a thing in the low level
rest client. For now that just means you use it to customize the
headers and the `httpAsyncResponseConsumerFactory` and we'll add
node selectors and per request timeouts in a follow up.
I only implemented this on the bulk API because it is the first one
in the list alphabetically and I wanted to keep the change small
enough to review. I'll convert the remaining APIs in a followup.
This commit adds Verify Repository, the associated docs and tests for
the high level REST API client. A few small changes to the Verify
Repository Response went into the commit as well.

Our API spec define the tasks API as e.g. tasks.list, meaning that they belong to their own namespace. This commit moves them from the cluster namespace to their own namespace.
Relates to #29546
Adding headers rather than setting them all at once seems more
user-friendly and we already do it in a similar way for parameters
(see Request#addParameter).
This commit adds Delete Repository, the associated docs and tests for
the high level REST API client. It also cleans up a seemingly innocuous
line in the RestDeleteRepositoryAction and some naming in SnapshotIT.
Relates #27205
This change adds a `listTasks` method to the high level java
ClusterClient which allows listing running tasks through the
task management API.
Related to #27205
This commit adds Create Repository, the associated docs and tests
for the high level REST API client. A few small changes to the
PutRepository Request and Response went into the commit as well.
This commit changes the default out-of-the-box configuration for the
number of shards from five to one. We think this will help address a
common problem of oversharding. For users with time-based indices that
need a different default, this can be managed with index templates. For
users with non-time-based indices that find they need to re-shard with
the split API in place they no longer need to resort only to
reindexing.
Since this has the impact of changing the default number of shards used
in REST tests, we want to ensure that we still have coverage for issues
that could arise from multiple shards. As such, we randomize (rarely)
the default number of shards in REST tests to two. This is managed via a
global index template. However, some tests check the templates that are
in the cluster state during the test. Since this template is randomly
there, we need a way for tests to skip adding the template used to set
the number of shards to two. For this we add the default_shards feature
skip. To avoid having to write our docs in a complicated way because
sometimes they might be behind one shard, and sometimes they might be
behind two shards we apply the default_shards feature skip to all docs
tests. That is, these tests will always run with the default number of
shards (one).
The High Level REST Client's documentation suggested that users should
use the Low Level REST Client for index management activities. This
change removes that suggestion because the high level REST client
supports those APIs now.
This also changes the examples in the migration docs to that still use
the Low Level REST Client to use the non-deprecated varieats of
`performRequest`.
