This commit moves the aggregation and mapping code from joda time to java time. This includes field mappers, root object mappers, aggregations with date histograms, query builders and a lot of changes within tests. The cut-over to java time is a requirement so that we can support nanoseconds properly in a future field mapper. Relates #27330 |

Elasticsearch REST API JSON specification
This repository contains a collection of JSON files which describe the Elasticsearch HTTP API.
Their purpose is to formalize and standardize the API, to facilitate development of libraries and integrations.
Example for the "Create Index" API:
{
"indices.create": {
"documentation": "http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/indices-create-index.html",
"methods": ["PUT", "POST"],
"url": {
"path": "/{index}",
"paths": ["/{index}"],
"parts": {
"index": {
"type" : "string",
"required" : true,
"description" : "The name of the index"
}
},
"params": {
"timeout": {
"type" : "time",
"description" : "Explicit operation timeout"
}
}
},
"body": {
"description" : "The configuration for the index (`settings` and `mappings`)"
}
}
}
The specification contains:
- The name of the API (
indices.create
), which usually corresponds to the client calls - Link to the documentation at http://elastic.co
- List of HTTP methods for the endpoint
- URL specification: path, parts, parameters
- Whether body is allowed for the endpoint or not and its description
The methods
and url.paths
elements list all possible HTTP methods and URLs for the endpoint;
it is the responsibility of the developer to use this information for a sensible API on the target platform.
