This PR adds deprecation warnings when accessing System Indices via the REST layer. At this time, these warnings are only enabled for Snapshot builds by default, to allow projects external to Elasticsearch additional time to adjust their access patterns.
Deprecation warnings will be triggered by all REST requests which access registered System Indices, except for purpose-specific APIs which access System Indices as an implementation detail a few specific APIs which will continue to allow access to system indices by default:
- `GET _cluster/health`
- `GET {index}/_recovery`
- `GET _cluster/allocation/explain`
- `GET _cluster/state`
- `POST _cluster/reroute`
- `GET {index}/_stats`
- `GET {index}/_segments`
- `GET {index}/_shard_stores`
- `GET _cat/[indices,aliases,health,recovery,shards,segments]`
Deprecation warnings for accessing system indices take the form:
```
this request accesses system indices: [.some_system_index], but in a future major version, direct access to system indices will be prevented by default
```
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.
Use 'includeSegmentFileSizes' as the flag name to report disk usage.
Added test that verifies reported segment disk usage is growing accordingly after adding a document.
Documentation: Reference the new parameter as part of indices stats.
In order to be more consistent with what they do, the query cache has been
renamed to request cache and the filter cache has been renamed to query
cache.
A known issue is that package/logger names do no longer match settings names,
please speak up if you think this is an issue.
Here are the settings for which I kept backward compatibility. Note that they
are a bit different from what was discussed on #11569 but putting `cache` before
the name of what is cached has the benefit of making these settings consistent
with the fielddata cache whose size is configured by
`indices.fielddata.cache.size`:
* index.cache.query.enable -> index.requests.cache.enable
* indices.cache.query.size -> indices.requests.cache.size
* indices.cache.filter.size -> indices.queries.cache.size
Close#11569
Note: This breaks backward compatibility
* Removed clear/all parameters, now all stats are returned by default
* Made the metrics part of the URL
* Removed a lot of handlers
* Added shards/indices/cluster level paremeter to change response serialization
* Returning translog statistics in IndicesStats
* Added TranslogStats class
* Added IndexShard.translogStats() method to get the stats from concrete implementation
* Updated documentation
Closes#4054
Stats can be retrieved on a per-feature / per-component basis including the fields
they apply to. This commit add support for a 'completion' flag to include statistics
for the complition feature as well as 'completion_fields' to only
include certain fields into the returned statistics.
To disambiguate between 'fielddata' and 'completion' fields this commit
uses 'fields' as the default inclusion filter for stats fields only used
if not dedicated '[completion|fielddata]_fields' paramter is provided.
