The `_index` field is now a completely virtual field thanks
to #12027. It is no longer necessary to index the actual value
of the index name.
closes#12329
ignore_above is used to guard against the lucene limitation
that a term cannot exceed 32766 bytes.
However, the implementation just used the character count, which
doesn't take into account the fact that some characters have
multi-byte utf-8 encodings.
This commit updates the docs to make this relationship clear.
Closes#11563
If you are using the default date or the named identifiers of dates,
the current implementation was allowed to read a year with only one
digit. In order to make this more strict, this fixes a year to be at
least 4 digits. Same applies for month, day, hour, minute, seconds.
Also the new default is `strictDateOptionalTime` for indices created
with Elasticsearch 2.0 or newer.
In addition a couple of not exposed date formats have been exposed, as they
have been mentioned in the documentation.
Closes#6158
The work around for resolving `now` doesn't need to be used for aliases, becuase alias filters are parsed at search time. However it can't be removed, because the percolator relies on it.
Parent/child can be specified again in alias filters, this now works again because alias filters are parsed at search time. Parent/child will also use the late query parse work around, to make sure to do the final preparations when the search context is around. This allows the aliases api to validate the parent/child queries without failing because there is no search context.
Closes#10485
In order to be backwards compatible, indices created before 2.x must support
indexing of a unix timestamp and its configured date format. Indices created
with 2.x must configure the `epoch_millis` date formatter in order to
support this.

This is a follow up to #8143 and #6730 for _timestamp. It removes
support for `path`, as well as any field type settings, and
enables docvalues for _timestamp, for 2.0. Users who need to
adjust these settings can use a date field.
This fixes an issue to allow for negative unix timestamps.
An own printer for epochs instead of just having a parser has been added.
Added docs that only 10/13 length unix timestamps are supported
Added docs in upgrade documentation
Fixes#11478
This commit changes the date handling. First and foremost Elasticsearch
does not try to convert every date to a unix timestamp first and then
uses the configured date. This now allows for dates like `2015121212` to
be parsed correctly.
Instead it is now explicit by adding a `epoch_second` and `epoch_millis`
date format. This also means, that the default date format now is
`epoch_millis||dateOptionalTime` to remain backwards compatible.

* Cut the `has_child` and `has_parent` queries over to use Lucene's query time global ordinal join. The main benefit of this change is that parent/child queries can now efficiently execute if parent/child queries are wrapped in a bigger boolean query. If the rest of the query only hit a few documents both has_child and has_parent queries don't need to evaluate all parent or child documents any more.
* Cut the `_parent` field over to use doc values. This significantly reduces the on heap memory footprint of parent/child, because the parent id values are never loaded into memory.
Breaking changes:
* The `type` option on the `_parent` field can only point to a parent type that doesn't exist yet, so this means that an existing type/mapping can't become a parent type any longer.
* The `has_child` and `has_parent` queries can no longer be use in alias filters.
All these changes, improvements and breaks in compatibility only apply for indices created with ES version 2.0 or higher. For indices creates with ES <= 2.0 the older implementation is used.
It is highly recommended to re-index all your indices with parent and child documents to benefit from all the improvements that come with this refactoring. The easiest way to achieve this is by using the scan and bulk apis using a simple script.
Closes#6107Closes#8134
This change unifies the way scripts and templates are specified for all instances in the codebase. It builds on the Script class added previously and adds request building and parsing support as well as the ability to transfer script objects between nodes. It also adds a Template class which aims to provide the same functionality for template APIs
Closes#11091
This option is broken currently since it potentially interprets an incoming
binary value as compressed while it just happens that the first bytes are the
same as the LZF header.
Meta fields were locked down to not allow exotic options to the
underlying field types in #8143. This change fixes the docs
to no longer refer to the old settings.
closes#10879
This commit makes queries and filters parsed the same way using the
QueryParser abstraction. This allowed to remove duplicate code that we had
for similar queries/filters such as `range`, `prefix` or `term`.
Current features (eg. update API) and future features (eg. reindex API)
depend on _source. This change locks down the field so that
it can no longer be disabled. It also removes legacy settings
compress/compress_threshold.
closes#8142closes#10915
Using files that must be specified on each node is an anti-pattern
from the API based goal of ES. This change removes the ability
to specify the default mapping with a file on each node.
closes#10620
Regardless of the outcome of #8142, we should at least enforce that
when _source is enabled, it is sufficient to reindex. This change
removes the excludes and includes settings, since these modify
the source, causing us to lose the ability to reindex some fields.
closes#10814
If a user explicitly defined the tree_level or precision parameter in a geo_shape mapping their specification was always overridden by the default_error_pct parameter (even though our docs say this parameter is a 'hint'). This lead to unexpected accuracy problems in the results of a geo_shape filter. (example provided in issue #9691)
This simple patch fixes the unexpected behavior by setting the default distance_error_pct parameter to zero when the tree_level or precision parameters are provided by the user. Under the covers the quadtree will now use the tree level defined by the user. The docs will be updated to alert the user to exercise caution with these parameters. Specifying a precision of "1m" for an index using large complex shapes can quickly lead to OOM issues.
closes#9691
We had an undocumented parameter called `numeric_resolution` which allows to
configure how to deal with dates when provided as a number. The default is to
handle them as milliseconds, but you can also opt-on for eg. seconds.
Close#10072
Documentation states false as the default for "validate", "validate_lon", and "validate_lat" leading to confusion as described in issue #9539. This simple fix corrects the documentation and communicates that these fields will be deprecated and removed in upcoming versions.
closes#9539
As explained in elasticsearch/elasticsearch-mapper-attachments#101, we should have consistent documentation.
The best option is to link the documentation in elasticsearch guide to the most recent README in the plugin repo.
Closes#9756
_id and _routing now no longer support the 'path' setting on indexes
created with 2.0. Indexes created before 2.0 still support this
setting for backcompat.
