Customers occasionally discover a known behavior in Elasticsearch's pagination that does not appear to be documented. This warning is intended to educate customers of this behavior while still highlighting alternative solutions.
* [DOCS] Add template docs to scripts. Reorder template examples.
* Adds a 'Search template' section to the 'How to use scripts' chapter.
This links to the 'Search template' chapter for detailed info and
examples.
* Reorders and retitles several examples in the 'Search template'
chapter. This is primarily to make examples for storing, deleting, and
using search templates more prominent.
* Change <templatename> to <templateid>
Several files in the REST APIs nav section are included using
:leveloffset: tags. This increments headings (h2 -> h3, h3 -> h4, etc.)
in those files and removes the :leveloffset: tags.
Other supporting changes:
* Alphabetizes top-level REST API nav items.
* Change 'indices APIs' heading to 'index APIs.'
* Changes 'Snapshot lifecycle management' heading to sentence case.
Moves the following API sections under the REST APIs navigations:
- API Conventions
- Document APIs
- Search APIs
- Index APIs (previously named Indices APIs)
- cat APIs
- Cluster APIs
Other supporting changes:
- Removes the previous index APIs page under REST APIs. Adds a redirect for the removed page.
- Removes several [partintro] macros so the docs build correctly.
- Changes anchors for pages that become sections of a parent page.
- Adds several redirects for existing pages that become sections of a parent page.
This commit re-applies changes from #44238. Changes from that PR were reverted due to broken links in several repos. This commit adds redirects for those broken links.
the geo-bounding-box and phrase-suggest docs were susceptible to
failing due to other indices in the cluster. This change restricts
the queries to the index that is set up for the test.
relates to #43271.
Adding notes to the existing docs about how using `preference` might increase
request cache utilization but also add warning about the downsides.
Closes#24278
This PR updates the docs for `docvalue_fields` and `stored_fields` to clarify
that nested fields must be accessed through `inner_hits`. It also tweaks the
nested fields documentation to make this point more visible.
Addresses #23766.
Today the `_field_caps` API returns the list of indices where a field
is present only if this field has different types within the requested indices.
However if the request is an index pattern (or an alias, or both...) there
is no way to infer the indices if the response contains only fields that have
the same type in all indices. This commit changes the response to always return
the list of indices in the response. It also adds a way to retrieve unmapped field
in a specific section per field called `unmapped`. This section is created for each field
that is present in some indices but not all if the parameter `include_unmapped` is set to
true in the request (defaults to false).
Currently enabling profiling disables top-hits optimizations, which is
unfortunate: it would be nice to be able to notice the difference in method
counts and timings depending on whether total hit counts are requested.
The explanation given in the completion suggester documentation why we use the
"simple" analyzer as the default is no longer valid. Since we still use "simple"
as the default, we should just delete the explanation that doesn't fit anymore.
Closes#36715
Adds the search_as_you_type field type that acts like a text field optimized
for as-you-type search completion. It creates a couple subfields that analyze
the indexed terms as shingles, against which full terms are queried, and a
prefix subfield that analyze terms as the largest shingle size used and
edge-ngrams, against which partial terms are queried
Adds a match_bool_prefix query type that creates a boolean clause of a term
query for each term except the last, for which a boolean clause with a prefix
query is created.
The match_bool_prefix query is the recommended way of querying a search as you
type field, which will boil down to term queries for each shingle of the input
text on the appropriate shingle field, and the final (possibly partial) term
as a term query on the prefix field. This field type also supports phrase and
phrase prefix queries however
This change adds an option to convert a `date` field to nanoseconds resolution
and a `date_nanos` field to millisecond resolution when sorting.
The resolution of the sort can be set using the `numeric_type` option of the
field sort builder. The conversion is done at the shard level and is restricted
to dates from 1970 to 2262 for the nanoseconds resolution in order to avoid
numeric overflow.
This change adds an option to the `FieldSortBuilder` that allows to transform the type
of a numeric field into another. Possible values for this option are `long` that transforms
the source field into an integer and `double` that transforms the source field into a floating point.
This new option is useful for cross-index search when the sort field is mapped differently on some
indices. For instance if a field is mapped as a floating point in one index and as an integer in another
it is possible to align the type for both indices using the `numeric_type` option:
```
{
"sort": {
"field": "my_field",
"numeric_type": "double" <1>
}
}
```
<1> Ensure that values for this field are transformed to a floating point if needed.
