This adds a remote option to reindex that looks like
```
curl -POST 'localhost:9200/_reindex?pretty' -d'{
"source": {
"remote": {
"host": "http://otherhost:9200"
},
"index": "target",
"query": {
"match": {
"foo": "bar"
}
}
},
"dest": {
"index": "target"
}
}'
```
This reindex has all of the features of local reindex:
* Using queries to filter what is copied
* Retry on rejection
* Throttle/rethottle
The big advantage of this version is that it goes over the HTTP API
which can be made backwards compatible.
Some things are different:
The query field is sent directly to the other node rather than parsed
on the coordinating node. This should allow it to support constructs
that are invalid on the coordinating node but are valid on the target
node. Mostly, that means old syntax.
We weren't doing it before because we weren't starting the plugins.
Now we are.
The hardest part of this was handling the files the tests expect
to be on the filesystem. extraConfigFiles was broken.
Two of the snippets in validate weren't working properly so they are
marked as skip and linked to this:
https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/18254
We didn't properly handle empty parameter values. We were sending
them as the literal string "null". Now we do better and send them
as the empty string.
This makes it much easier to apply to other projects.
Fixes to doc tests infrastructure:
* Fix comparing lists. Was totally broken.
* Fix order of actual vs expected parameters.
* Allow multiple `// TESTRESPONSE` lines with substitutions to join
into one big list of subtitutions. This makes lets the docs look
tidier.
* Exclude build from snippet scanning
* Allow subclasses of ESRestTestCase access to the admin execution context
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.
