This means "literal" and is exposed for completeness sake with
the java api.
Painless: Add support for //c
c enables Java's CANON_EQ (canonical equivalence) flag which makes
unicode characters that are canonically equal match. Java's javadoc
gives "a\u030A" being equal to "\u00E5". That is that the "a" code
point followed by the "combining ring above" code point is equal to
the "a with combining ring above" code point.
Update docs and add multi-flag test
Whitelist most of the Pattern class.
Today we have a push model for registering basically anything. All our extension points
are defined on modules which we pass in to plugins. This is harder to maintain and adds
unnecessary dependencies on the modules itself. This change moves towards a pull model
where the plugin offers a getter kind of method to get the extensions. This will also
help in the future if we need to pass dependencies to the extension points which can
easily be defined on the method as arguments if a pull model is used.
Adds support for the find operator (=~) and the match operator (==~)
to painless's regexes. Also whitelists most of the Matcher class and
documents regex support in painless.
The find operator (=~) returns a boolean that is the result of building
a matcher on the lhs with the Pattern on the RHS and calling `find` on
it. Use it like this:
```
if (ctx._source.last =~ /b/)
```
The match operator (==~) returns boolean like find but instead of calling
`find` on the Matcher it calls `matches`.
```
if (ctx._source.last ==~ /[^aeiou].*[aeiou]/)
```
Finally, if you want the actual matcher you do:
```
Matcher m = /[aeiou]/.matcher(ctx._source.last)
```
Registering a script engine or native scripts still uses Guice today
and is much more complicated than needed. This change moves to a pull
based model where script plugins have to implement a dedicated interface
`ScriptPlugin` and defines simple getter returning instances rather than
classes.
In 2.0 we added plugin descriptors which require defining a name and
description for the plugin. However, we still have name() and
description() which must be overriden from the Plugin class. This still
exists for classpath plugins. But classpath plugins are mainly for
tests, and even then, referring to classpath plugins with their class is
a better idea. This change removes name() and description(), replacing
the name for classpath plugins with the full class name.
This interface used to have dedicated methods to prevent calling execute
methods. These methods are unnecessary as the checks can simply be
done inside the execute methods itself. This simplifies the interface
as well as its usage.
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.
