This commit changes the default out-of-the-box configuration for the
number of shards from five to one. We think this will help address a
common problem of oversharding. For users with time-based indices that
need a different default, this can be managed with index templates. For
users with non-time-based indices that find they need to re-shard with
the split API in place they no longer need to resort only to
reindexing.
Since this has the impact of changing the default number of shards used
in REST tests, we want to ensure that we still have coverage for issues
that could arise from multiple shards. As such, we randomize (rarely)
the default number of shards in REST tests to two. This is managed via a
global index template. However, some tests check the templates that are
in the cluster state during the test. Since this template is randomly
there, we need a way for tests to skip adding the template used to set
the number of shards to two. For this we add the default_shards feature
skip. To avoid having to write our docs in a complicated way because
sometimes they might be behind one shard, and sometimes they might be
behind two shards we apply the default_shards feature skip to all docs
tests. That is, these tests will always run with the default number of
shards (one).
This change adds a new plugin called `analysis-nori` that exposes
Korean text analysis in es using the new Lucene Korean analyzer module named (`nori`).
The plugin adds:
* a Korean analyzer: `nori`
* a Korean tokenizer: `nori_tokenizer`
* a part of speech stop filter: `nori_part_of_speech`
* a filter that can replace Hanja characters with their Hangul transcription: `nori_readingform`
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.
Now that single-document indexing requests are executed on the bulk
thread pool the index thread pool is no longer needed. This commit
removes this thread pool from Elasticsearch.
We want to remove the index thread pool as it is no longer needed since
single-document indexing requests are executed as bulk requests
now. Analyze requests are also executed on the index thread pool though
and they need a thread pool to execute on. The bulk thread does not seem
like the right thread pool, let us keep that thread pool conceptually
for bulk requests and free for bulk requests. None of the existing
thread pools make sense for analyze requests either. The generic thread
pool would be a terrible choice since it has an unbounded queue and that
is a bad idea for user-facing APIs. This commit introduces a small by
default (size=1, queue_size=16) thread pool for analyze requests.
Today we report thread pool info using a common object. This means that
we use a shared set of terminology that is not consistent with the
terminology used to the configure thread pools. This holds in particular
for the minimum and maximum number of threads in the thread pool where
we use the following terminology:
thread pool info | fixed | scaling
min core size
max max size
A previous change addressed this for the nodes info API. This commit
changes the display of thread pool info in the cat thread pool API too
to be dependent on the type of the thread pool so that we can align the
terminology in the output of thread pool info with the terminology used
to configure a thread pool.
This pull request replaces the jvm-example plugin (from the jvm/site plugins era) by two new plugins: a custom-settings that shows how to register and use custom settings (including secured settings) in a plugin, and rest-handler plugin that shows how to register a rest handler.
The two plugins now reside in the plugins/examples project. They can serve as sample plugins for users, a special attention has been put on documentation. The packaging tests have been adapted to use the custom-settings plugin.
Today we require users to prepare their indices for split operations.
Yet, we can do this automatically when an index is created which would
make the split feature a much more appealing option since it doesn't have
any 3rd party prerequisites anymore.
This change automatically sets the number of routinng shards such that
an index is guaranteed to be able to split once into twice as many shards.
The number of routing shards is scaled towards the default shard limit per index
such that indices with a smaller amount of shards can be split more often than
larger ones. For instance an index with 1 or 2 shards can be split 10x
(until it approaches 1024 shards) while an index created with 128 shards can only
be split 3x by a factor of 2. Please note this is just a default value and users
can still prepare their indices with `index.number_of_routing_shards` for custom
splitting.
NOTE: this change has an impact on the document distribution since we are changing
the hash space. Documents are still uniformly distributed across all shards but since
we are artificually changing the number of buckets in the consistent hashign space
document might be hashed into different shards compared to previous versions.
This is a 7.0 only change.
This commit adds a note to the docs on the full_id parameter in the cat
nodes API. This is a useful parameter but was not previously documented
anywhere.

In this test, 260b is replaced by the regexp \d+b
but the test sometimes produces results like 1.1kb
so this commit adapts the regexp to match values
with decimals
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.

Expand `/_cat/nodes` with already present information about available disk space `diskAvail` (alias: `d`, `disk`) by:
* `diskTotal` (alias `dt`): total disk space
* `diskUsed` (alias `du`): used disk space (`diskTotal - diskAvail`)
* `diskUsedPercent` (alias `dup`): used disk space percentage
Note: The available disk space is the number of bytes available to the node's Java virtual machine. The size might be smaller than the real one. That means the used disk space (percentage) is larger.
Closes#21679
The _cat/shards docs asserted that one of the columns looked like
a propery byte size but used a regex like `\d+\.\d+.*` which doesn't
match `0b` which is a possible value. Instead this uses
`\d(\.\d+)?[kmg]?b`.
The alias parameter was documented as a list in our rest-spec, yet only the first value out of a list was getting read and processed. This commit adds support for multiple aliases to _cat/aliases
Closes#23661
The docs don't clearly explain that the deleted doc count also comes from lucene.
IMHO, it is worth highlighting this information separately, as a Note.
Apart from that, there should be an official recommended alternative as well.
This PR removes all leniency in the conversion of Strings to booleans: "true"
is converted to the boolean value `true`, "false" is converted to the boolean
value `false`. Everything else raises an error.
This failure is due to the fact that we sort on store size, which is cached. So
it might happen that the store size that is taken into account is not the right
one, which makes the indices sorted in the wrong order. This changes the doc
example to sort on the number of docs instead.
Closes#21062
Moves the `_flush` in the `_cat/indices` snippets testing framework
to the very first test. We need to flush super early because index
size is cached for a few seconds so we really need to read a
consistent size on the first read so we can sort by it properly.
Closes#21062
Converts docs for `_cat/segments`, `_cat/plugins` and `_cat/repositories`
from `curl` to `// CONSOLE` so they are tested as part of the build and
are cleaner to use in Console. They should work fine with `curl` with
the `COPY AS CURL` link.
Also swaps the `source` type of the response from `js` to `txt` because
that is more correct. The syntax highlighter doesn't care. It looks at
the text to figure out the language. So it looks a little funny for `_cat`
responses regardless.

Uses the new sorting (#20658) in the `_cat` API to support all use
cases natively. We can still resort to piping things through `sort`
if we need to, but we don't have to for basic stuff like sorting!
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

Today, when listing thread pools via the cat thread pool API, thread
pools are listed in a column-delimited format. This is unfriendly to
command-line tools, and inconsistent with other cat APIs. Instead,
thread pools should be listed in a row-delimited format.
Additionally, the cat thread pool API is limited to a fixed list of
thread pools that excludes certain built-in thread pools as well as all
custom thread pools. These thread pools should be available via the cat
thread pool API.
This commit improves the cat thread pool API by listing all thread pools
(built-in or custom), and by listing them in a row-delimited
format. Finally, for each node, the output thread pools are sorted by
thread pool name.
