This commit adds back the publishing section that sets the artifact id
of the generated pom file for the high level rest client. This was
accidentally removed during a consolidationo of the shadow plugin logic.
Relates #29827
This implementation behaves like the current transport client, that you basically cannot configure a Watch POJO representation as an argument to the put watch API, but only a bytes reference. You can use the the `WatchSourceBuilder` from the `org.elasticsearch.plugin:x-pack-core` dependency to build watches.
This commit also changes the license type to trial, so that watcher is available in high level rest client tests.
/cc @hub-cap
Moves the customizations to the build to produce nice shadow jars and
javadocs into common build code, mostly BuildPlugin with a little into
the root build.gradle file. This means that any project that applies the
shadow plugin will automatically be set up just like the high level rest
client:
* The non-shadow jar will not be built
* The shadow jar will not have a "classifier"
* Tests will run against the shadow jar
* Javadoc will include all of the shadowed classes
* Service files in `META-INF/services` will be merged
We have been encountering name mismatches between API defined in our
REST spec and method names that have been added to the high-level REST
client. We should check this automatically to prevent furher mismatches,
and correct all the current ones.
This commit adds a test for this and corrects the issues found by it.
The `:x-pack:protocol` project is an implementation detail shared by the
xpack projects and the high level rest client and really doesn't deserve
its own maven coordinants and published javadoc. This change bundles
`:x-pack:protocol` into the high level rest client.
Relates to #29827
This is the first x-pack API we're adding to the high level REST client
so there is a lot to talk about here!
= Open source
The *client* for these APIs is open source. We're taking the previously
Elastic licensed files used for the `Request` and `Response` objects and
relicensing them under the Apache 2 license.
The implementation of these features is staying under the Elastic
license. This lines up with how the rest of the Elasticsearch language
clients work.
= Location of the new files
We're moving all of the `Request` and `Response` objects that we're
relicensing to the `x-pack/protocol` directory. We're adding a copy of
the Apache 2 license to the root fo the `x-pack/protocol` directory to
line up with the language in the root `LICENSE.txt` file. All files in
this directory will have the Apache 2 license header as well. We don't
want there to be any confusion. Even though the files are under the
`x-pack` directory, they are Apache 2 licensed.
We chose this particular directory layout because it keeps the X-Pack
stuff together and easier to think about.
= Location of the API in the REST client
We've been following the layout of the rest-api-spec files for other
APIs and we plan to do this for the X-Pack APIs with one exception:
we're dropping the `xpack` from the name of most of the APIs. So
`xpack.graph.explore` will become `graph().explore()` and
`xpack.license.get` will become `license().get()`.
`xpack.info` and `xpack.usage` are special here though because they
don't belong to any proper category. For now I'm just calling
`xpack.info` `xPackInfo()` and intend to call usage `xPackUsage` though
I'm not convinced that this is the final name for them. But it does get
us started.
= Jars, jars everywhere!
This change makes the `xpack:protocol` project a `compile` scoped
dependency of the `x-pack:plugin:core` and `client:rest-high-level`
projects. I intend to keep it a compile scoped dependency of
`x-pack:plugin:core` but I intend to bundle the contents of the protocol
jar into the `client:rest-high-level` jar in a follow up. This change
has grown large enough at this point.
In that followup I'll address javadoc issues as well.
= Breaking-Java
This breaks that transport client by a few classes around. We've
traditionally been ok with doing this to the transport client.
It's easy to create a wrong Content-Type header when converting a
XContentType to a Apache HTTP ContentType instance.
This commit the direct usages of ContentType.create() methods in favor of a Request.createContentType(XContentType) method that does the right thing.
Closes#26438
It was brought up that our current client artifacts have generic names like 'rest' that may cause conflicts with other artifacts.
This commit renames:
- rest -> elasticsearch-rest-client
- sniffer -> elasticsearch-rest-client-sniffer
- rest-high-level -> elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client
A couple of small changes are also preparing the high level client for its first release.
Closes#20248
This commit enforces the requirement of Content-Type for the REST layer and removes the deprecated methods in transport
requests and their usages.
While doing this, it turns out that there are many places where *Entity classes are used from the apache http client
libraries and many of these usages did not specify the content type. The methods that do not specify a content type
explicitly have been added to forbidden apis to prevent more of these from entering our code base.
Relates #19388
The RestHighLevelClient class takes as as an argument a low level client instance RestClient. The first method added is ping, which returns true if the call to HEAD / went ok and false if an IOException was thrown. Any other exception gets bubbled up.
There are two kinds of tests, a unit test (RestHighLevelClientTests) that verifies the interaction between high level and low level client, and an integration test (MainActionIT) which relies on an externally started es cluster to send requests to.
