Clinton Gormley 3f594089c2 Renamed all AUTOSENSE snippets to CONSOLE (#18210) 2016-05-09 15:42:23 +02:00
Nik Everett 4b1c116461 Generate and run tests from the docs
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.

Adrien Grand d84c643f58 Use the new points API to index numeric fields. #17746
This makes all numeric fields including `date`, `ip` and `token_count` use
points instead of the inverted index as a lookup structure. This is expected
to perform worse for exact queries, but faster for range queries. It also
requires less storage.

Notes about how the change works:
 - Numeric mappers have been split into a legacy version that is essentially
   the current mapper, and a new version that uses points, eg.
   LegacyDateFieldMapper and DateFieldMapper.
 - Since new and old fields have the same names, the decision about which one
   to use is made based on the index creation version.
 - If you try to force using a legacy field on a new index or a field that uses
   points on an old index, you will get an exception.
 - IP addresses now support IPv6 via Lucene's InetAddressPoint and store them
   in SORTED_SET doc values using the same encoding (fixed length of 16 bytes
   and sortable).
 - The internal MappedFieldType that is stored by the new mappers does not have
   any of the points-related properties set. Instead, it keeps setting the index
   options when parsing the `index` property of mappings and does
   `if (fieldType.indexOptions() != IndexOptions.NONE) { // add point field }`
   when parsing documents.

Known issues that won't fix:
 - You can't use numeric fields in significant terms aggregations anymore since
   this requires document frequencies, which points do not record.
 - Term queries on numeric fields will now return constant scores instead of
   giving better scores to the rare values.

Known issues that we could work around (in follow-up PRs, this one is too large
already):
 - Range queries on `ip` addresses only work if both the lower and upper bounds
   are inclusive (exclusive bounds are not exposed in Lucene). We could either
   decide to implement it, or drop range support entirely and tell users to
   query subnets using the CIDR notation instead.
 - Since IP addresses now use a different representation for doc values,
   aggregations will fail when running a terms aggregation on an ip field on a
   list of indices that contains both pre-5.0 and 5.0 indices.
 - The ip range aggregation does not work on the new ip field. We need to either
   implement range aggs for SORTED_SET doc values or drop support for ip ranges
   and tell users to use filters instead. #17700
