=== Execute Watch API
|
|
|
|
This API enables on-demand execution of a watch stored in the `.watches` index.
|
|
It can be used to test a watch without executing all its actions or by ignoring
|
|
its condition. The response contains a `BytesReference` that represents the
|
|
record that would be written to the `.watcher-history` index.
|
|
|
|
The following example executes a watch with the name `my-watch`
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
ExecuteWatchResponse executeWatchResponse = watcherClient.prepareExecuteWatch("my-watch")
|
|
|
|
// execute the actions, ignoring the watch condition
|
|
.setIgnoreCondition(true)
|
|
|
|
// A map containing alternative input to use instead of the output of
|
|
// the watch's input
|
|
.setAlternativeInput(new HashMap<String, Object>())
|
|
|
|
// Trigger data to use (Note that "scheduled_time" is not provided to the
|
|
// ctx.trigger by this execution method so you may want to include it here)
|
|
.setTriggerData(new HashMap<String, Object>())
|
|
|
|
// Simulating the "email_admin" action while ignoring its throttle state. Use
|
|
// "_all" to set the action execution mode to all actions
|
|
.setActionMode("_all", ActionExecutionMode.FORCE_SIMULATE)
|
|
|
|
// If the execution of this watch should be written to the `.watcher-history`
|
|
// index and reflected in the persisted Watch
|
|
.setRecordExecution(false)
|
|
|
|
// Indicates whether the watch should execute in debug mode. In debug mode the
|
|
// returned watch record will hold the execution vars
|
|
.setDebug(true)
|
|
|
|
.get();
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Once the response is returned, you can explore it by getting execution record

|
TIP: The `XContentSource` class provides convenient methods to explore the
|
|
source
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
XContentSource source = executeWatchResponse.getRecordSource();
|
|
String actionId = source.getValue("result.actions.0.id");
