Node IDs are currently randomly generated during node startup. That means they change every time the node is restarted. While this doesn't matter for ES proper, it makes it hard for external services to track nodes. Another, more minor, side effect is that indexing the output of, say, the node stats API results in creating new fields due to node ID being used as keys.
The first approach I considered was to use the node's published address as the base for the id. We already [treat nodes with the same address as the same](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/discovery/zen/NodeJoinController.java#L387) so this is a simple change (see [here](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/compare/master...bleskes:node_persistent_id_based_on_address)). While this is simple and it works for probably most cases, it is not perfect. For example, if after a node restart, the node is not able to bind to the same port (because it's not yet freed by the OS), it will cause the node to still change identity. Also in environments where the host IP can change due to a host restart, identity will not be the same.
Due to those limitation, I opted to go with a different approach where the node id will be persisted in the node's data folder. This has the upside of connecting the id to the nodes data. It also means that the host can be adapted in any way (replace network cards, attach storage to a new VM). I
It does however also have downsides - we now run the risk of two nodes having the same id, if someone copies clones a data folder from one node to another. To mitigate this I changed the semantics of the protection against multiple nodes with the same address to be stricter - it will now reject the incoming join if a node exists with the same id but a different address. Note that if the existing node doesn't respond to pings (i.e., it's not alive) it will be removed and the new node will be accepted when it tries another join.
Last, and most importantly, this change requires that *all* nodes persist data to disk. This is a change from current behavior where only data & master nodes store local files. This is the main reason for marking this PR as breaking.
Other less important notes:
- DummyTransportAddress is removed as we need a unique network address per node. Use `LocalTransportAddress.buildUnique()` instead.
- I renamed `node.add_lid_to_custom_path` to `node.add_lock_id_to_custom_path` to avoid confusion with the node ID which is now part of the `NodeEnvironment` logic.
- I removed the `version` paramater from `MetaDataStateFormat#write` , it wasn't really used and was just in the way :)
- TribeNodes are special in the sense that they do start multiple sub-nodes (previously known as client nodes). Those sub-nodes do not store local files but derive their ID from the parent node id, so they are generated consistently.
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
We introduced a special response_body assertion to test our docs snippets. The match assertion does the same job though and can be reused and adapted where needed. ResponseBodyAssertion contains provides much better and accurate errors though, which can be now utilized in MatchAssertion so that many more REST tests can benefit from readable error messages.
Each response body gets always stashed and can be retrieved for later evaluations already. Instead of providing the response body as strings that get parsed to json objects separately, then converted to maps as ResponseBodyAssertion did, we parse everything once, the json is part of the yaml test, which is supported. The only downside is that json comments cannot be used, rather yaml comments should be used (// C style vs # ). There were only two docs tests that were using comments in ingest-node.asciidoc where I went ahead and remove the comments which didn't seem that useful anyways.
Update-By-Query and Delete-By-Query use internal versioning to update/delete documents. But documents can have a version number equal to zero using the external versioning... making the UBQ/DBQ request fail because zero is not a valid version number and they only support internal versioning for now. Sequence numbers might help to solve this issue in the future.
As discussed at https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-cloud-azure/issues/91#issuecomment-229113595, we know that the current `discovery-azure` plugin only works with Azure Classic VMs / Services (which is somehow Legacy now).
The proposal here is to rename `discovery-azure` to `discovery-azure-classic` in case some users are using it.
And deprecate it for 5.0.
Closes#19144.
`RestHandler`s are highly tied to actions so registering them in the
same place makes sense.
Removes the need to for plugins to check if they are in transport client
mode before registering a RestHandler - `getRestHandlers` isn't called
at all in transport client mode.
This caused guice to throw a massive fit about the circular dependency
between NodeClient and the allocation deciders. I broke the circular
dependency by registering the actions map with the node client after
instantiation.
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.

These are useful methods in groovy that give you control over
the replacements used:
```
'the quick brown fox'.replaceAll(/[aeiou]/,
m -> m.group().toUpperCase(Locale.ROOT))
```
Instead of implementing onModule(ActionModule) to register actions,
this has plugins implement ActionPlugin to declare actions. This is
yet another step in cleaning up the plugin infrastructure.
While I was in there I switched AutoCreateIndex and DestructiveOperations
to be eagerly constructed which makes them easier to use when
de-guice-ing the code base.
This commit modifies TimeValue parsing to keep the input time unit. This
enables round-trip parsing from instances of String to instances of
TimeValue and vice-versa. With this, this commit removes support for the
unit "w" representing weeks, and also removes support for fractional
values of units (e.g., 0.5s).

This commit fixes several NPEs caused by implicitly performing a get request for a document that exists with its _source disabled and then trying to access the source. Instead of causing an NPE the following queries will throw an exception with a "source disabled" message (similar behavior as if the document does not exist).:
- GeoShape query for pre-indexed shape (throws IllegalArgumentException)
- Percolate query for an existing document (throws IllegalArgumentException)
A Terms query with a lookup will ignore the document if the source does not exist (same as if the document does not exist).
GET and HEAD requests for the document _source will return a 404 if the source is disabled (even if the document exists).
Instead of plugins calling `registerTokenizer` to extend the analyzer
they now instead have to implement `AnalysisPlugin` and override
`getTokenizer`. This lines up extending plugins in with extending
scripts. This allows `AnalysisModule` to construct the `AnalysisRegistry`
immediately as part of its constructor which makes testing anslysis
much simpler.
This also moves the default analysis configuration into `AnalysisModule`
which is how search is setup.
Like `ScriptModule`, `AnalysisModule` no longer extends `AbstractModule`.
Instead it is only responsible for building `AnslysisRegistry`. We still
bind `AnalysisRegistry` but we only do so in `Node`. This is means it
is available at module construction time so we slowly remove the need to
bind it in guice.

This moves the "Performance Considerations for Elasticsearch Indexing" blog post
to the reference guide and adds similar recommendations for tuning disk usage
and search speed.
This commit moves template support out of the Search API to its own dedicated Search Template API in the lang-mustache module. It provides a new SearchTemplateAction that can be used to render templates before it gets delegated to the usual Search API. The current REST endpoint are identical, but the Render Search Template endpoint now uses the same Search Template API with a new "simulate" option. When this option is enabled, the Search Template API only renders template and returns immediatly, without executing the search.

We aren't able to actually create an index with _timestamp enabled
to test the migration, or, at least, we won't be able to after #18980
is re-merged. But the docs are still ok.

The default similarity was set to `classic` which refers to TFIDF and has not been moved after the upgrade to Lucene 6.
Though moving to BM25 could have some downside for queries that relies on coordination factor (match_query, multi_match_query) ?

We wrote that the document is:
```json
{
"value" : ["foo", "bar", "baz"]
}
```
But the processor is using a `values` field:
```json
{
"foreach" : {
"field" : "values",
"processors" : [
// ...
]
}
}
```
It should be `values`.
ES only sends a non-200 response all shards fail but we should
fail the tests generated by docs if any of them fail.
Depending on the outcome of #18978 this might be a temporary
workaround.
The MMapDirectory has a switch that allows the content of files to be loaded
into the filesystem cache upon opening. This commit exposes it with the new
`index.store.pre_load` setting.
This commit removes the search preference _only_node as the same
functionality can be obtained by using the search preference
_only_nodes. This commit also adds a test that ensures that _only_nodes
will continue to support specifying node IDs.

This commit adds a note to the breaking changes docs that since commit
da74323141, thread pool settings are no
longer cluster-level settings and thus not dynamically updatable.
Painless: Add support for //m
Painless: Add support for //s
Painless: Add support for //i
Painless: Add support for //u
Painless: Add support for //U
Painless: Add support for //l
This means "literal" and is exposed for completeness sake with
the java api.
Painless: Add support for //c
c enables Java's CANON_EQ (canonical equivalence) flag which makes
unicode characters that are canonically equal match. Java's javadoc
gives "a\u030A" being equal to "\u00E5". That is that the "a" code
point followed by the "combining ring above" code point is equal to
the "a with combining ring above" code point.
Update docs and add multi-flag test
Whitelist most of the Pattern class.
Adds support for the find operator (=~) and the match operator (==~)
to painless's regexes. Also whitelists most of the Matcher class and
documents regex support in painless.
The find operator (=~) returns a boolean that is the result of building
a matcher on the lhs with the Pattern on the RHS and calling `find` on
it. Use it like this:
```
if (ctx._source.last =~ /b/)
```
The match operator (==~) returns boolean like find but instead of calling
`find` on the Matcher it calls `matches`.
```
if (ctx._source.last ==~ /[^aeiou].*[aeiou]/)
```
Finally, if you want the actual matcher you do:
```
Matcher m = /[aeiou]/.matcher(ctx._source.last)
```
They have been implemented in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7289.
Ranges are implemented so that the accuracy loss only occurs at index time,
which means that if you are searching for values between A and B, the query will
match exactly all documents whose value rounded to the closest half-float point
is between A and B.
Thread pool settings are no longer dynamically updatable since
da74323141. This commit removes a leftover
note from the thread pool module docs that incorrectly states that
thread pool settings are dynamically updatable.
The search preference _prefer_node allows specifying a single node to
prefer when routing a request. This functionality can be enhanced by
permitting multiple nodes to be preferred. This commit replaces the
search preference _prefer_node with the search preference _prefer_nodes
which supplants the former by specifying a single node and otherwise
adds functionality.

This adds a get task API that supports GET /_tasks/${taskId} and
removes that responsibility from the list tasks API. The get task
API supports wait_for_complation just as the list tasks API does
but doesn't support any of the list task API's filters. In exchange,
it supports falling back to the .results index when the task isn't
running any more. Like any good GET API it 404s when it doesn't
find the task.
Then we change reindex, update-by-query, and delete-by-query to
persist the task result when wait_for_completion=false. The leads
to the neat behavior that, once you start a reindex with
wait_for_completion=false, you can fetch the result of the task by
using the get task API and see the result when it has finished.
Also rename the .results index to .tasks.
By default the number of searches msearch executes is capped by the number of
nodes multiplied with the default size of the search threadpool. This default can be
overwritten by using the newly added `max_concurrent_searches` parameter.
Before the msearch api would concurrently execute all searches concurrently. If many large
msearch requests would be executed this could lead to some searches being rejected
while other searches in the msearch request would succeed.
The goal of this change is to avoid this exhausting of the search TP.
