Elasticsearch has long [supported](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-index_.html#index-versioning) compare and set (a.k.a optimistic concurrency control) operations using internal document versioning. Sadly that approach is flawed and can sometime do the wrong thing. Here's the relevant excerpt from the resiliency status page: > When a primary has been partitioned away from the cluster there is a short period of time until it detects this. During that time it will continue indexing writes locally, thereby updating document versions. When it tries to replicate the operation, however, it will discover that it is partitioned away. It won’t acknowledge the write and will wait until the partition is resolved to negotiate with the master on how to proceed. The master will decide to either fail any replicas which failed to index the operations on the primary or tell the primary that it has to step down because a new primary has been chosen in the meantime. Since the old primary has already written documents, clients may already have read from the old primary before it shuts itself down. The version numbers of these reads may not be unique if the new primary has already accepted writes for the same document We recently [introduced](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.x/optimistic-concurrency-control.html) a new sequence number based approach that doesn't suffer from this dirty reads problem. This commit removes support for internal versioning as a concurrency control mechanism in favor of the sequence number approach. Relates to #1078

|
=== Update API
|
|
|
|
[id="{upid}-{api}-request"]
|
|
==== Update Request
|
|
|
|
An +{request}+ requires the following arguments:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Index
|
|
<2> Document id
|
|
|
|
The Update API allows to update an existing document by using a script
|
|
or by passing a partial document.
|
|
|
|
==== Updates with a script
|
|
The script can be provided as an inline script:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-with-inline-script]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Script parameters provided as a `Map` of objects
|
|
<2> Create an inline script using the `painless` language and the previous parameters
|
|
<3> Sets the script to the update request
|
|
|
|
Or as a stored script:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-with-stored-script]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Reference to a script stored under the name `increment-field` in the `painless` language
|
|
<2> Sets the script in the update request
|
|
|
|
==== Updates with a partial document
|
|
When using updates with a partial document, the partial document will be merged with the
|
|
existing document.
|
|
|
|
The partial document can be provided in different ways:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-with-doc-as-string]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Partial document source provided as a `String` in JSON format
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-with-doc-as-map]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Partial document source provided as a `Map` which gets automatically converted
|
|
to JSON format
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-with-doc-as-xcontent]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Partial document source provided as an `XContentBuilder` object, the Elasticsearch
|
|
built-in helpers to generate JSON content
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-shortcut]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Partial document source provided as `Object` key-pairs, which gets converted to
|
|
JSON format
|
|
|
|
==== Upserts
|
|
If the document does not already exist, it is possible to define some content that
|
|
will be inserted as a new document using the `upsert` method:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-upsert]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Upsert document source provided as a `String`
|
|
|
|
Similarly to the partial document updates, the content of the `upsert` document
|
|
can be defined using methods that accept `String`, `Map`, `XContentBuilder` or
|
|
`Object` key-pairs.
|
|
|
|
==== Optional arguments

The following arguments can optionally be provided:
|

|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-doc-upsert]

include::../execution.asciidoc[]
|
|
|
|
[id="{upid}-{api}-response"]
|
|
==== Update Response
|
|
|
|
The returned +{response}+ allows to retrieve information about the executed
|
|
operation as follows:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-response]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Handle the case where the document was created for the first time (upsert)
|
|
<2> Handle the case where the document was updated
|
|
<3> Handle the case where the document was deleted
|
|
<4> Handle the case where the document was not impacted by the update,
|
|
ie no operation (noop) was executed on the document
|
|
|
|
When the source retrieval is enabled in the `UpdateRequest`
|
|
through the fetchSource method, the response contains the
|
|
source of the updated document:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-getresult]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Retrieve the updated document as a `GetResult`
|
|
<2> Retrieve the source of the updated document as a `String`
|
|
<3> Retrieve the source of the updated document as a `Map<String, Object>`
|
|
<4> Retrieve the source of the updated document as a `byte[]`
|
|
<5> Handle the scenario where the source of the document is not present in
|
|
the response (this is the case by default)
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to check for shard failures:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-failure]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Handle the situation where number of successful shards is less than
|
|
total shards
|
|
<2> Handle the potential failures
|
|
|
|
When a `UpdateRequest` is performed against a document that does not exist,
|
|
the response has `404` status code, an `ElasticsearchException` gets thrown
|
|
which needs to be handled as follows:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-docnotfound]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Handle the exception thrown because the document not exist
|
|
|
|
If there is a version conflict, an `ElasticsearchException` will
|
|
be thrown:
|
|
|
|
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-conflict]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> The raised exception indicates that a version conflict error was returned.
