Adds support for triple quoted strings to the documentation test
generator. Kibana's CONSOLE tool has supported them for a year but we
were unable to use them in Elasticsearch's docs because the process that
converts example snippets into tests couldn't handle this. This change
adds code to convert them into standard JSON so we can pass them to
Elasticsearch.
I have seen this question a couple times already, most recently at
https://twitter.com/dimosr7/status/973872744965332993
I tried to keep the explanation as simple as I could, which is not always easy
as this is a matter of trade-offs.
By the time the master branch is released the deprecated url
parameters in the `/_cache/clear` API will have been deprecated
for a couple of minor releases. Since master will be the next
major release we are fine with removing these parameters.
Currently we have a fairly complicated logic in the engine constructor logic to deal with all the
various ways we want to mutate the lucene index and translog we're opening.
We can:
1) Create an empty index
2) Use the lucene but create a new translog
3) Use both
4) Force a new history uuid in all cases.
This leads complicated code flows which makes it harder and harder to make sure we cover all the
corner cases. This PR tries to take another approach. Constructing an InternalEngine always opens
things as they are and all needed modifications are done by static methods directly on the
directory, one at a time.
* Add a REST integration test that documents date_range support
Add a test case that exercises date_range aggregations using the missing
option.
Addresses #17597
* Test cleanup and correction
Adding a document with a null date to exercise `missing` option, update
test name to something reasonable.
* Update documentation to explain how the "missing" parameter works for
date_range aggregations.
* Wrap lines at 80 chars in docs.
* Change format of test to YAML for readability.
The current docs on [Indices APIs: PUT Mapping](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-put-mapping.html) suggests that a having number of different mapping types per index is still possible in elasticsearch versions > 6.0.0 although they have been [removed](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/removal-of-types.html). The console code has already been updated accordingly but notes (2) and (3) on the console code still name the `user` mapping type.
This PR updates the list with notes after the console code, as well as the first sentence of the docs
to avoid confusion. Also, I have removed the second command from the console code as it no
longer holds any value if the docs are solely on the `_doc` mapping.
The original example resulted in a 400 error due to the example being `-` separated instead of the default `.` separation.

* Clarifies how the query_string splits textual part to build a query
Whitespaces are not considered as operators anymore in 6x but the documentation is not clear about it.

Values for the network.host setting can often contain a colon which is a
character that is considered special by YAML (these arise in IPv6
addresses and some of the special tags like ":ipv4"). As such, these
values need to be quoted or a YAML parser will be unhappy with
them. This commit adds a note to the docs regarding this.

Similarly to what has been done for s3 and azure, this commit removes
the repository settings `application_name` and `connect/read_timeout`
in favor of client settings. It introduce a GoogleCloudStorageClientSettings
class (similar to S3ClientSettings) and a bunch of unit tests for that,
it aligns the documentation to be more coherent with the S3 one, it
documents the connect/read timeouts that were not documented at all and
also adds a new client setting that allows to define a custom endpoint.
We previously specified the -server flag to force the JVM to use the
server JVM. This is the default on all the systems that we support when
using a 64-bit JVM (and we no longer support 32-bit JVMs). There was
some trouble with this flag for the Windows service since procrun did
not understand what to do with it; as such, we had to filter this flag
out in the service. When we migrated to parsing JVM options in Java (via
the JVM options parser) we simplified this situation and removed
specifying the -server flag. This commit removes a leftover statement
that we are forcing the server JVM.

The node stats API enables filtlering the top-level stats for only
desired top-level stats. Yet, this was never enabled for adaptive
replica selection stats. This commit enables this. We also add setting
these stats on the request builder, and fix an inconsistent name in a
setter.

The Windows service will use a private temporary directory under the
user that is performing the installation. In cases when the service will
run as a different user, operators need a method to set this temporary
directory elsewhere. We have such a mechanism, so this commit merely
adds a note to the documentation on how to utilize it.

Elasticsearch 6.x indices do not allow multiple types index. Instead, they use "_doc" as default if created internally (Elasticsearch), or "doc" default if sent by Logstash.
Currently the Translog constructor is capable both of opening an existing translog and creating a
new one (deleting existing files). This PR separates these two into separate code paths. The
constructors opens files and a dedicated static methods creates an empty translog.
* Search option terminate_after does not handle post_filters and aggregations correctly
This change fixes the handling of the `terminate_after` option when post_filters (or min_score) are used.
`post_filter` should be applied before `terminate_after` in order to terminate the query when enough document are accepted
by the post_filters.
This commit also changes the type of exception thrown by `terminate_after` in order to ensure that multi collectors (aggregations)
do not try to continue the collection when enough documents have been collected.
Closes#28411
We do want to keep this functionality in the future and we provide support for it.
This change is a first step towards replacing the `synonym` token filter with `synonym_graph`.
Currently the callouts for this section are below all the examples, making it
harder to relate them to the snippets. Instead they should be moved closer
to the examples.
Adds allow_partial_search_results flag to search requests with default setting = true.
When false, will error if search either timeouts, has partial errors or has missing shards rather

The `terms` query is really designed for filtering and highlighting it might

This change adds support for the new ranking evaluation API to the High Level Rest Client.
This mostly means adding support for parsing the various response objects back from the
REST representation. It includes one change to the response syntax where previously we didn't
print the type of the metric details section but we now need it to pick the right parser to
parse this section back.
Closes#28198
This adds the ability to index term prefixes into a hidden subfield, enabling prefix queries to be run without multitermquery rewrites. The subfield reuses the analysis chain of its parent text field, appending an EdgeNGramTokenFilter. It can be configured with minimum and maximum ngram lengths. Query terms with lengths outside this min-max range fall back to using prefix queries against the parent text field.
The mapping looks like this:
"my_text_field" : {
"type" : "text",
"analyzer" : "english",
"index_prefix" : { "min_chars" : 1, "max_chars" : 10 }
}

Cluster settings shouldn't leak into the next test.
I played with failing the test if it left over any settings but that
felt like it added more ceremony then it was worth. The advantage is
that any test that intentionally wants to leave settings in place after
the test would fail and require looking at but, so far as I can tell, we
don't have any such tests.
Clear the disk watermark after the snippet showing users how to set it.

This pull request replaces the jvm-example plugin (from the jvm/site plugins era) by two new plugins: a custom-settings that shows how to register and use custom settings (including secured settings) in a plugin, and rest-handler plugin that shows how to register a rest handler.
The two plugins now reside in the plugins/examples project. They can serve as sample plugins for users, a special attention has been put on documentation. The packaging tests have been adapted to use the custom-settings plugin.
The implementation maintains the order of the original requests yet this
functionality is not documented. This commit adds a note to the docs
regarding the ordering of responses to an multi-get request.

This PR removes previously deprecated `isShardsAcked()` method in
favour of `isShardsAcknowledged()` on `CreateIndexResponse`, `CreateIndexClusterStateUpdateResponse` and `RolloverResponse`
Related to #27784
Follow-up of #27819
This change adds the `after_key` of a composite aggregation directly in the response.
It is redundant when all buckets are not filtered/removed by a pipeline aggregation since in this case the `after_key` is always the last bucket
in the response. Though when using a pipeline aggregation to filter composite buckets, the `after_key` can be lost if the last bucket is filtered.
This commit fixes this situation by always returning the `after_key` in a dedicated section.
This change adds a note in the `terms` aggregation that explains how to retrieve **all**
terms (or all combinations of terms in a nested agg) using the `composite` aggregation.
This commit adds the ability to specify a date format on the `date_histogram` composite source.
If the format is defined, the key for the source is returned as a formatted date.
Closes#27923
The use of the phrase "translog" vs "transaction log" was inconsistent, and
it was apparently unclear that the translog was stored on every shard copy.
Since #25826 we reject infinite values for float, double and half_float
datatypes. This change adds this restriction to the documentation for the
supported datatypes.
Closes#27653
* Only bind loopback addresses when binding to local
Today when binding to local (the default) we bind to any address that is
a loopback address, or any address on an interface that declares itself
as a loopback interface. Yet, not all addresses on loopback interfaces
are loopback addresses. This arises on macOS where there is a link-local
address assigned to the loopback interface (fe80::1%lo0) and in Docker
services where virtual IPs of the service are assigned to the loopback
interface (docker/libnetwork#1877). These situations cause problems:
- because we do not handle the scope ID of a link-local address, we end
up bound to an address for which publishing of that address does not
allow that address to be reached (since we drop the scope)
- the virtual IPs in the Docker situation are not loopback addresses,
they are not link-local addresses, so we end up bound to interfaces
that cause the bootstrap checks to be enforced even though the
instance is only bound to local
We address this by only binding to actual loopback addresses, and skip
binding to any address on a loopback interface that is not a loopback
address. This lets us simplify some code where in the bootstrap checks
we were skipping link-local addresses, and in writing the ports file
where we had to skip link-local addresses because again the formatting
of them does not allow them to be connected to by another node (to be
clear, they could be connected to via the scope-qualified address, but
that information is not written out).

#27409 deprecated the incorrectly-spelled `levenstein` in favour of `levenshtein`.
#27526 deprecated the inconsistent `jarowinkler` in favour of `jaro_winkler`.
These changes were merged into 6.2, and this change removes them entirely in 7.0.
JDK 9 has removed JVM options that were valid in JDK 8 (e.g., GC logging
flags) and replaced them with new flags that are not available in JDK
8. This means that a single JVM options file can no longer apply to JDK
8 and JDK 9, complicating development, complicating our packaging story,
and complicating operations. This commit extends the JVM options syntax
to specify the range of versions the option applies to. If the running
JVM matches the range of versions, the flag will be used to start the
JVM otherwise the flag will be ignored.
We implement this parser in Java for simplicity, and with this we start
our first step towards a Java launcher.

This commit adds a new dynamic cluster setting named `search.max_buckets` that can be used to limit the number of buckets created per shard or by the reduce phase. Each multi bucket aggregator can consume buckets during the final build of the aggregation at the shard level or during the reduce phase (final or not) in the coordinating node. When an aggregator consumes a bucket, a global count for the request is incremented and if this number is greater than the limit an exception is thrown (TooManyBuckets exception).
This change adds the ability for multi bucket aggregator to "consume" buckets in the global limit, the default is 10,000. It's an opt-in consumer so each multi-bucket aggregator must explicitly call the consumer when a bucket is added in the response.

* Add accounting circuit breaker and track segment memory usage
This commit adds a new circuit breaker "accounting" that is used for tracking
the memory usage of non-request-tied memory users. It also adds tracking for the
amount of Lucene segment memory used by a shard as a user of the new circuit
breaker.
The Lucene segment memory is updated when the shard refreshes, and removed when
the shard relocates away from a node or is deleted. It should also be noted that
all tracking for segment memory uses `addWithoutBreaking` so as not to fail the
shard if a limit is reached.
The `accounting` breaker has a default limit of 100% and will contribute to the
parent breaker limit.
