This change activates the doc_values on the _size field for indices created after 5.0.0-alpha4.
It also adds a note in the breaking changes that explain the situation and how to get around it.
Closes#18334
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.
We have long worked to capture different partitioning scenarios in our testing infra. This PR adds a new variant, inspired by the Jepsen blogs, which was forgotten far - namely a partition where one node can still see and be seen by all other nodes. It also updates the resiliency page to better reflect all the work that was done in this area.
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.
As some plugins are becoming big now, it is hard for the user to know, if the plugin
is being downloaded or just nothing happens.
This commit adds a progress bar during download, which can be disabled by using the `-q`
parameter.
In addition this updates to jimfs 1.1, which allows us to test the batch mode, as adding
security policies are now supported due to having jimfs:// protocol support in URL stream
handlers.
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.
In 995e4eda08be99f72ef56052b3f78ceef9100885 we changed the cluster health Java API.
We need to also change the documentation.
Backport of #19093 in master branch
The discovery-plugin has been broken since 2.x because the code was not compliant with the security manager and because plugins have been refactored.
closes#18637, #15630
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).
