Currently both `PUT` and `POST` can be used to create indices. This commit
removes support for `POST index_name` so that we can use it to index documents
with auto-generated ids once types are removed.
Relates #15613
The payload option was introduced with the new completion
suggester implementation in v5, as a stop gap solution
to return additional metadata with suggestions.
Now we can return associated documents with suggestions
(#19536) through fetch phase using stored field (_source).
The additional fetch phase ensures that we only fetch
the _source for the global top-N suggestions instead of
fetching _source of top results for each shard.
This commit enables completion suggester to return documents
associated with suggestions. Now the document source is returned
with every suggestion, which respects source filtering options.
In case of suggest queries spanning more than one shard, the
suggest is executed in two phases, where the last phase fetches
the relevant documents from shards, implying executing suggest
requests against a single shard is more performant due to the
document fetch overhead when the suggest spans multiple shards.
The completion suggester provides auto-complete/search-as-you-type functionality.
This is a navigational feature to guide users to relevant results as they are typing, improving search precision.
It is not meant for spell correction or did-you-mean functionality like the term or phrase suggesters.
The completions are indexed as a weighted FST (finite state transducer) to provide fast Top N prefix-based
searches suitable for serving relevant results as a user types.

Previously, collate feature would be executed on all shards of an index using the client,
this leads to a deadlock when concurrent collate requests are run from the _search API,
due to the fact that both the external request and internal collate requests use the
same search threadpool.
As phrase suggestions are generated from the terms of the local shard, in most cases the
generated suggestion, which does not yield a hit for the collate query on the local shard
would not yield a hit for collate query on non-local shards.
Instead of using the client for collating suggestions, collate query is executed against
the ContextIndexSearcher. This PR removes the ability to specify a preference for a collate
query, as the collate query is only run on the local shard.
closes#9377
The `analyzer` setting is now the base setting, and `search_analyzer`
is simply an override of the search time analyzer. When setting
`search_analyzer`, `analyzer` must be set.
closes#9371
A new option `prune` has been added to allow users to control phrase suggestion pruning when `collate`
is set. If the new option is set, the phrase suggestion option will contain a boolean `collate_match`
indicating whether the respective result had hits in collation.
CLoses#6927
The newly added collate option will let the user provide a template query/filter which will be executed for every phrase suggestions generated to ensure that the suggestion matches at least one document for the filter/query.
The user can also add routing preference `preference` to route the collate query/filter and additional `params` to inject into the collate template.
Closes#3482
The existing Note about the shorthand suggest syntax was poorly worded and confusing. Please check whether the way I've phrased it now is still correct as to what the shorthand form actually does and doesn't do: the original wording did not provide me enough information to be sure.
Thanks!
The default precision was way too exact and could lead people to
think that geo context suggestions are not working. This patch now
requires you to set the precision in the mapping, as elasticsearch itself
can never tell exactly, what the required precision for the users
suggestions are.
