=== Create Index API
[[java-rest-high-create-index-request]]
==== Create Index Request
A `CreateIndexRequest` requires an `index` argument:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The index to create
==== Index settings
Each index created can have specific settings associated with it.
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request-settings]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Settings for this index
==== Index mappings
An index may be created with mappings for its document types
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request-mappings]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The type to define
<2> The mapping for this type, provided as a JSON string
==== Index aliases
Aliases can be set at index creation time
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request-aliases]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The alias to define
==== Optional arguments
The following arguments can optionally be provided:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request-timeout]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Timeout to wait for the all the nodes to acknowledge the index creation as a `TimeValue`
<2> Timeout to wait for the all the nodes to acknowledge the index creation as a `String`
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request-masterTimeout]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Timeout to connect to the master node as a `TimeValue`
<2> Timeout to connect to the master node as a `String`
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-request-waitForActiveShards]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The number of active shard copies to wait for before the create index API returns a
response, as an `int`.
<2> The number of active shard copies to wait for before the create index API returns a
response, as an `ActiveShardCount`.
[[java-rest-high-create-index-sync]]
==== Synchronous Execution
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-execute]
--------------------------------------------------
[[java-rest-high-create-index-async]]
==== Asynchronous Execution
The asynchronous execution of a create index request requires both the `CreateIndexRequest`
instance and an `ActionListener` instance to be passed to the asynchronous
method:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-execute-async]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The `CreateIndexRequest` to execute and the `ActionListener` to use when
the execution completes
The asynchronous method does not block and returns immediately. Once it is
completed the `ActionListener` is called back using the `onResponse` method
if the execution successfully completed or using the `onFailure` method if
it failed.
A typical listener for `CreateIndexResponse` looks like:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-execute-listener]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Called when the execution is successfully completed. The response is
provided as an argument
<2> Called in case of failure. The raised exception is provided as an argument
[[java-rest-high-create-index-response]]
==== Create Index Response
The returned `CreateIndexResponse` allows to retrieve information about the executed
operation as follows:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[create-index-response]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Indicates whether all of the nodes have acknowledged the request
<2> Indicates whether the requisite number of shard copies were started for each shard in the index before timing out
