James Rodewig 9b05f6a668 [DOCS] Add admonition for app using cat APIs (#52727)
Adds an explicit "important" admonition discouraging apps from using
cat APIs.

cat APIs are intended for human consumption via the command line or
Kibana console only. They are not intended for consumption by
applications.

James Rodewig f028ab08d1 [DOCS] Use `s` parameter in cat API overview example (#50616)
Updates a snippet to use the `s` query string parameter rather than
piping the output to a separate `sort` command.

This ensures the snippet is tested and available in clients other than
curl (Kibana console, etc.).

Issue was originally raised by @hackaholic in #40926.

James Rodewig a63f60b776 [DOCS] Remove heading offsets for REST APIs (#44568)
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.

James Rodewig 34725e20fb [DOCS] Move Elasticsearch APIs to REST APIs section. (#44238) (#44372)
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.

Jason Tedor c12c2a6cc9 Rename the bulk thread pool to write thread pool (#29593)
This commit renames the bulk thread pool to the write thread pool. This
is to better reflect the fact that the underlying thread pool is used to
execute any document write request (single-document index/delete/update
requests, and bulk requests).

With this change, we add support for fallback settings
thread_pool.bulk.* which will be supported until 7.0.0.

We also add a system property so that the display name of the thread
pool remains as "bulk" if needed to avoid breaking users.

olcbean 658ca5e10b Add a note to the docs that _cat api `help` option cannot be used if an optional url param is used (#28686) 2018-02-15 15:56:01 +01:00
Nik Everett 6d2c40e546 Enforce that responses in docs are valid json (#26249)
All of the snippets in our docs marked with `// TESTRESPONSE` are
checked against the response from Elasticsearch but, due to the
way they are implemented they are actually parsed as YAML instead
of JSON. Luckilly, all valid JSON is valid YAML! Unfurtunately
that means that invalid JSON has snuck into the exmples!

This adds a step during the build to parse them as JSON and fail
the build if they don't parse.

But no! It isn't quite that simple. The displayed text of some of
these responses looks like:
```
{
    ...
    "aggregations": {
        "range": {
            "buckets": [
                {
                    "to": 1.4436576E12,
                    "to_as_string": "10-2015",
                    "doc_count": 7,
                    "key": "*-10-2015"
                },
                {
                    "from": 1.4436576E12,
                    "from_as_string": "10-2015",
                    "doc_count": 0,
                    "key": "10-2015-*"
                }
            ]
        }
    }
}
```

Note the `...` which isn't valid json but we like it anyway and want
it in the output. We use substitution rules to convert the `...`
into the response we expect. That yields a response that looks like:
```
{
    "took": $body.took,"timed_out": false,"_shards": $body._shards,"hits": $body.hits,
    "aggregations": {
        "range": {
            "buckets": [
                {
                    "to": 1.4436576E12,
                    "to_as_string": "10-2015",
                    "doc_count": 7,
                    "key": "*-10-2015"
                },
                {
                    "from": 1.4436576E12,
                    "from_as_string": "10-2015",
                    "doc_count": 0,
                    "key": "10-2015-*"
                }
            ]
        }
    }
}
```

That is what the tests consume but it isn't valid JSON! Oh no! We don't
want to go update all the substitution rules because that'd be huge and,
ultimately, wouldn't buy much. So we quote the `$body.took` bits before
parsing the JSON.

Note the responses that we use for the `_cat` APIs are all converted into
regexes and there is no expectation that they are valid JSON.

Alexander Lin d31a8e6558 Provides a cat api endpoint for templates. (#20545)
Adds a cat api endpoint: /_cat/templates and its more specific version, /_cat/templates/{name}.

It looks something like:

$ curl "localhost:9200/_cat/templates?v"
name                  template     order version
sushi_california_roll *avocado*    1     1
pizza_hawaiian        *pineapples* 1
pizza_pepperoni       *pepperoni*  1

The specified version (only allows * globs) looks like:

$ curl "localhost:9200/_cat/templates/pizza*"
name            template     order version
pizza_hawaiian  *pineapples* 1
pizza_pepperoni *pepperoni*  1

Partially specified columns:

$ curl "localhost:9200/_cat/templates/pizza*?v=true&h=name,template"
name            template
pizza_hawaiian  *pineapples*
pizza_pepperoni *pepperoni*

The help text:

$ curl "localhost:9200/_cat/templates/pizza*?help"
name     | n | template name
template | t | template pattern string
order    | o | template application order number
version  | v | version

David Pilato 5e1f26c22a Add support for documented byte/size units and for micros as a time unit in _cat API
We advertise in our documentation that byte units are like `kb`, `mb`... But we actually only support the simple notation `k` or `m`.
This commit adds support for the documented form and keeps the non documented options to avoid any breaking change.

It also adds support for `micros`, `nanos` and `d` as a time unit in `_cat` API.

Remove the support for `b` as a SizeValue unit. Actually, for numbers, when using raw numbers without unit, there is no text to add/parse after the number. For example, you don't write `10` as `10b`. We support option like `size=` in `_cat` API which means that we want to display raw data without unit (singles).

Documentation updated accordingly.

Add test for the empty size option.

Andrej Kazakov 7f2b369dfd Use Accept header field in cat API
The cat API previously used the Content-Type header field for
determining the media type of the response. This is in opposition to the
HTTP spec which specifies the Accept header field for this purpose. This
commit replaces the use of the Content-Type header field with the Accept
header field in the cat API.
