This change moves tests in `smoke-test-rank-eval-with-mustache` into the main
ranking evaluation module by declaring that the integration testing cluster
requires the `lang-mustache` plugin. This avoids having to maintain the qa
project for only one basic test suite.
While the other two ranking evaluation metrics (precicion and reciprocal rank)
already provide a more detailed output for how their score is calculated, the
discounted cumulative gain metric (dcg) and its normalized variant are lacking
this until now. Its not really clear which level of detail might be useful for
debugging and understanding the final metric calculation, but this change adds a
`metric_details` section to REST output that contains some information about the
evaluation details.
ObjectParser should throw XContentParseExceptions, not IAE. A dedicated parsing
exception can includes the place where the error occurred.
Closes#30605
This commit removes the RequestBuilder generic type from Action. It was
needed to be used by the newRequest method, which in turn was used by
client.prepareExecute. Both of these methods are now removed, along with
the existing users of prepareExecute constructing the appropriate
builder directly.
Currently the ranking evaluation API accepts the full query syntax for
the queries specified in the evaluation set and executes them via multi
search. This potentially runs costly aggregations and suggestions too.
This change adds checks that forbid using aggregations, suggesters,
highlighters and the explain and profile options in the queries that are
run as part of the ranking evaluation since they are irrelevent in the
context of this API.
This *mostly* silences `javadoc`'s warning about defaulting to
generating html4 files by enabling generating html5 file for the
projects for which that works. It didn't work in a half dozen projects,
about half of which I've fixed in this PR, entirely by replacing
`<tt>thing</tt>` with `{@code thing}`.
There are a few remaining projects that contain javadoc with invalid
html5. I'll fix those projects in a followup.
The ranking evaluation requests so far were not tested against aliases
but they should run regardless of the targeted index is a real index or
an alias. This change adds cases for this to the integration and rest
tests.
Allow high level java rest client to access details of the metric
calculation by making them accessible across packages. Also renaming the
inner `Breakdown` classes of the evaluation metrics to `Detail` to
better communicate their use.
This change validates that the `_search` request does not have trailing
tokens after the main object and fails the request with a parsing exception otherwise.
Closes#28995
* Move ObjectParser into the x-content lib
This moves `ObjectParser`, `AbstractObjectParser`, and
`ConstructingObjectParser` into the libs/x-content dependency. This decoupling
allows them to be used for parsing for projects that don't want to depend on the
entire Elasticsearch jar.
Relates to #28504
Currently the ranking evaluation API doesn't support many of the
standard parameters of the search API. Some of these make sense, like
adding support for the common indices options parameters, which this
change adds.
Fixes and edge case where DiscountedCumulativeGain can return NaN as
result of the quality metric calculation. This can happen when the
search result set is empty and normalization is used. We should return 0
in this case. Also adding related unit tests to the other two metrics.
Currently we store the indices specified in the request URL together with all
the other ranking evaluation specification in RankEvalSpec. This is not ideal
since e.g. the indices are not rendered to xContent and so cannot be parsed
back. Instead we should keep them in RankEvalRequest.
* Decouple XContentBuilder from BytesReference
This commit removes all mentions of `BytesReference` from `XContentBuilder`.
This is needed so that we can completely decouple the XContent code and move it
into its own dependency.
While this change appears large, it is due to two main changes, moving
`.bytes()` and `.string()` out of XContentBuilder itself into static methods
`BytesReference.bytes` and `Strings.toString` respectively. The rest of the
change is code reacting to these changes (the majority of it in tests).
Relates to #28504
Parsing of a ranking evaluation request and its subcomponents should throw parsing
errors on unknown fields. This change adds tests for this and changes the parser
behaviour in cases where it is needed.
* Move to non-deprecated XContentHelper.createParser(...)
This moves away from one of the now-deprecated XContentHelper.createParser
methods in favor of specifying the deprecation logger at parser creation time.
Relates to #28449
Note that this doesn't move all the `createParser` calls because some of them
use the already-deprecated method that doesn't specify the XContentType.
* Remove the deprecated (and now non-needed) createParser method
This change adds support for the new ranking evaluation API to the High Level Rest Client.
This mostly means adding support for parsing the various response objects back from the
REST representation. It includes one change to the response syntax where previously we didn't
print the type of the metric details section but we now need it to pick the right parser to
parse this section back.
Closes#28198
Currenty the rest response of the ranking evaluation API wraps all inside an
enclosing `rank_eval` object. This is redundant since it is clear from the API
call and it doesn't provide any other useful information. This change removes
this.
Removing the unnecessary RankEvalTestHelper, making use of the common test infra
in ESTestCase, also hardening a few of the classes by making more fields final.
