The cat nodes API performs a `ClusterStateAction` then a `NodesInfoAction`.
Today it accepts the `?local` parameter and passes this to the
`ClusterStateAction` but this parameter has no effect on the `NodesInfoAction`.
This is surprising, because `GET _cat/nodes?local` looks like it might be a
completely local call but in fact it still depends on every node in the
cluster.
This commit deprecates the `?local` parameter on this API so that it can be
removed in 8.0.
Relates #50088
For 7.x and earlier branches, `_cat/repositories` API requests require a
repository name.
This removes an erroneous request example without a repository name
added with a8e0275.
Removes a reference to shadow replicas from the cat shards API docs
and a comment in cluster/routing/UnassignedInfo.java.
Shadow replicas were removed with #23906.
* [DOCS] Added the voting node.role value
With the elasticsearch.yml option "node.voting_only: true", if you perform a "_cat/nodes" there is a new option for `v` that will display if the node is a voting node.
* [DOCS] Added the voting node.role value
Updated "voting node" to read "voting-only node"
* Add is_write_index column to cat.aliases (#44772)
Aliases have had the option to set `is_write_index` since 6.4,
but the cat.aliases action was never updated.
* correct version bounds to 7.4
Sometimes the recovery in this docs test takes long enough that it is expressed
in `s` rather than `ms`. This commit relaxes the assertion to account for this.
Several files in the REST APIs nav section are included using
:leveloffset: tags. This increments headings (h2 -> h3, h3 -> h4, etc.)
in those files and removes the :leveloffset: tags.
Other supporting changes:
* Alphabetizes top-level REST API nav items.
* Change 'indices APIs' heading to 'index APIs.'
* Changes 'Snapshot lifecycle management' heading to sentence case.
The "include_type_name" parameter was temporarily introduced in #37285 to facilitate
moving the default parameter setting to "false" in many places in the documentation
code snippets. Most of the places can simply be reverted without causing errors.
In this change I looked for asciidoc files that contained the
"include_type_name=true" addition when creating new indices but didn't look
likey they made use of the "_doc" type for mappings. This is mostly the case
e.g. in the analysis docs where index creating often only contains settings. I
manually corrected the use of types in some places where the docs still used an
explicit type name and not the dummy "_doc" type.
* Default include_type_name to false for get and put mappings.
* Default include_type_name to false for get field mappings.
* Add a constant for the default include_type_name value.
* Default include_type_name to false for get and put index templates.
* Default include_type_name to false for create index.
* Update create index calls in REST documentation to use include_type_name=true.
* Some minor clean-ups around the get index API.
* In REST tests, use include_type_name=true by default for index creation.
* Make sure to use 'expression == false'.
* Clarify the different IndexTemplateMetaData toXContent methods.
* Fix FullClusterRestartIT#testSnapshotRestore.
* Fix the ml_anomalies_default_mappings test.
* Fix GetFieldMappingsResponseTests and GetIndexTemplateResponseTests.
We make sure to specify include_type_name=true during xContent parsing,
so we continue to test the legacy typed responses. XContent generation
for the typeless responses is currently only covered by REST tests,
but we will be adding unit test coverage for these as we implement
each typeless API in the Java HLRC.
This commit also refactors GetMappingsResponse to follow the same appraoch
as the other mappings-related responses, where we read include_type_name
out of the xContent params, instead of creating a second toXContent method.
This gives better consistency in the response parsing code.
* Fix more REST tests.
* Improve some wording in the create index documentation.
* Add a note about types removal in the create index docs.
* Fix SmokeTestMonitoringWithSecurityIT#testHTTPExporterWithSSL.
* Make sure to mention include_type_name in the REST docs for affected APIs.
* Make sure to use 'expression == false' in FullClusterRestartIT.
* Mention include_type_name in the REST templates docs.
