The shards preference on a search request enables specifying a list of
shards to hit, and then a secondary preference (e.g., "_primary") can be
added. Today, the separator between the shards list and the secondary
preference is ';'. Unfortunately, this is also a valid separtor for URL
query parameters. This means that a preference like "_shards:0;_primary"
will be parsed into two URL parameters: "_shards:0" and "_primary". With
the recent change to strict URL parsing, the second parameter will be
rejected, "_primary" is not a valid URL parameter on a search
request. This means that this feature has never worked (unless the ';'
is escaped, but no one does that because our docs do not that, and there
was no indication from Elasticsearch that this did not work). This
commit changes the separator to '|'.

This causes the snippets to be tested during the build and gives
helpful links to the reader to open the docs in console or copy them
as curl commands.

Surprise! You can use sliced scroll to easily parallelize reindex
and friend. They support it because they use the same infrastructure
as a regular search to parse the search request. While we would like
to make an "automatic" option for parallelizing reindex, this manual
option works right now and is pretty convenient!
We can now run templates using `explain` and/or `profile` parameters.
Which is interesting when you have defined a complicated profile but want to debug it in an easier way than running the full query again.
You can use `explain` parameter when running a template:
```js
GET /_search/template
{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]
},
"explain": true
}
```
You can use `profile` parameter when running a template:
```js
GET /_search/template
{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]
},
"profile": true
}
```
`profile.asciidoc` now runs all of its command but it doesn't validate
all of the results. Writing the validation is time consuming so I only
did some of it.
* Update rescoring docs in respect to sort
If sort is present in a query the rescore query is not executed. As long as this feature is neither implemented (see discussion in #6788) nor the combination of sort and rescoring raises an error, we should warn the user in the documentation about this.
* Missed a dot
With the cut over to LatLonPoint the geohash, geohash_precision, lat_lon, and geohash_prefix parameters have been removed. This commit fixes the doc build by removing the remaining dangling references to these removed parameters.
This change replaces the fields parameter with stored_fields when it makes sense.
This is dictated by the renaming we made in #18943 for the search API.
The following list of endpoint has been changed to use `stored_fields` instead of `fields`:
* get
* mget
* explain
The documentation and the rest API spec has been updated to cope with the changes for the following APIs:
* delete_by_query
* get
* mget
* explain
The `fields` parameter has been deprecated for the following APIs (it is replaced by _source filtering):
* update: the fields are extracted from the _source directly.
* bulk: the fields parameter is used but fields are extracted from the source directly so it is allowed to have non-stored fields.
Some APIs still have the `fields` parameter for various reasons:
* cat.fielddata: the fields paramaters relates to the fielddata fields that should be printed.
* indices.clear_cache: used to indicate which fielddata fields should be cleared.
* indices.get_field_mapping: used to filter fields in the mapping.
* indices.stats: get stats on fields (stored or not stored).
* termvectors: fields are retrieved from the stored fields if possible and extracted from the _source otherwise.
* mtermvectors:
* nodes.stats: the fields parameter is used to concatenate completion_fields and fielddata_fields so it's not related to stored_fields at all.

Add docs to template support for _msearch

and be much more stingy about what we consider a console candidate.
* Add `// CONSOLE` to check-running
* Fix version in some snippets
* Mark groovy snippets as groovy
* Fix versions in plugins
* Fix language marker errors
* Fix language parsing in snippets
This adds support for snippets who's language is written like
`[source, txt]` and `["source","js",subs="attributes,callouts"]`.
This also makes language required for snippets which is nice because
then we can be sure we can grep for snippets in a particular language.
This change adds a special field named _none_ that allows to disable the retrieval of the stored fields in a search request or in a TopHitsAggregation.
To completely disable stored fields retrieval (including disabling metadata fields retrieval such as _id or _type) use _none_ like this:
````
POST _search
{
"stored_fields": "_none_"
}
````
Currently both `PUT` and `POST` can be used to create indices. This commit
removes support for `POST index_name` so that we can use it to index documents
with auto-generated ids once types are removed.
Relates #15613
The payload option was introduced with the new completion
suggester implementation in v5, as a stop gap solution
to return additional metadata with suggestions.
Now we can return associated documents with suggestions
(#19536) through fetch phase using stored field (_source).
The additional fetch phase ensures that we only fetch
the _source for the global top-N suggestions instead of
fetching _source of top results for each shard.
This commit enables completion suggester to return documents
associated with suggestions. Now the document source is returned
with every suggestion, which respects source filtering options.
In case of suggest queries spanning more than one shard, the
suggest is executed in two phases, where the last phase fetches
the relevant documents from shards, implying executing suggest
requests against a single shard is more performant due to the
document fetch overhead when the suggest spans multiple shards.
Adds `warnings` syntax to the yaml test that allows you to expect
a `Warning` header that looks like:
```
- do:
warnings:
- '[index] is deprecated'
- quotes are not required because yaml
- but this argument is always a list, never a single string
- no matter how many warnings you expect
get:
index: test
type: test
id: 1
```
These are accessible from the docs with:
```
// TEST[warning:some warning]
```
This should help to force you to update the docs if you deprecate
something. You *must* add the warnings marker to the docs or the build
will fail. While you are there you *should* update the docs to add
deprecation warnings visible in the rendered results.
Invocation counts can be used to help judge the selectivity of individual query components in the context of the entire query. E.g. a query may not look selective when run by itself (matches most of the index), but when run in context of a full search request, is evaluated only rarely due to execution order
Since this is modifying the base timing class, it'll enrich both query and agg profiles (as well as future profile results)
Rename `fields` to `stored_fields` and add `docvalue_fields`
`stored_fields` parameter will no longer try to retrieve fields from the _source but will only return stored fields.
`fields` will throw an exception if the user uses it.
Add `docvalue_fields` as an adjunct to `fielddata_fields` which is deprecated. `docvalue_fields` will try to load the value from the docvalue and fallback to fielddata cache if docvalues are not enabled on that field.
Closes#18943
This pull request adds two util functions to the Mustache templating engine:
- {{#toJson}}my_map{{/toJson}} to render a Map parameter as a JSON string
- {{#join}}my_iterable{{/join}} to render any iterable (including arrays) as a comma separated list of values like `1, 2, 3`. It's also possible de change the default delimiter (comma) to something else.
