Funny node names have been removed in #19456 and replaced by UUID. This commit removes these obsolete node names and replace them by real UUIDs in the documentation.
closes#20065
This adds a get task API that supports GET /_tasks/${taskId} and
removes that responsibility from the list tasks API. The get task
API supports wait_for_complation just as the list tasks API does
but doesn't support any of the list task API's filters. In exchange,
it supports falling back to the .results index when the task isn't
running any more. Like any good GET API it 404s when it doesn't
find the task.
Then we change reindex, update-by-query, and delete-by-query to
persist the task result when wait_for_completion=false. The leads
to the neat behavior that, once you start a reindex with
wait_for_completion=false, you can fetch the result of the task by
using the get task API and see the result when it has finished.
Also rename the .results index to .tasks.
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.
By default, tasks are grouped by node. However, task execution in elasticsearch can be quite complex and an individual task that runs on a coordinating node can have many subtasks running on other nodes in the cluster. This commit makes it possible to list task grouped by common parents instead of by node. When this option is enabled all subtask are grouped under the coordinating node task that started all subtasks in the group. To group tasks by common parents, use the following syntax:
GET /tasks?group_by=parents
