Adds support for storing mustache based query templates that can later be filled with query parameter values at execution time. Templates may be both quoted, non-quoted and referencing templates stored in config/scripts/*.mustache by file name. See docs/reference/query-dsl/queries/template-query.asciidoc for templating examples. Implementation detail: mustache itself is being shaded as it depends directly on guava - so having it marked optional but included in the final distribution raises chances of version conflicts downstream. Fixes #4879 |

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.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/admin-indices-create-index/",
"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://elasticsearch.org
- 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.
Utilities
The repository contains some utilities in the utils
directory:
- The
thor api:generate:spec
will generate the basic JSON specification from Java source code - The
thor api:generate:code
generates Ruby source code and tests from the specs, and can be extended to generate assets in another programming language
Run bundle install
and then thor list
in the utils folder.
The full command to generate the api spec is:
thor api:spec:generate --output=myfolder --elasticsearch=/path/to/es
