== Get Mapping
|
|
|
|
The get mapping API allows to retrieve mapping definitions for an index or
|
|
index/type.
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/twitter/_mapping/tweet'

=== Multiple Indices and Types
|
|
|
|
The get mapping API can be used to get more than one index or type
|
|
mapping with a single call. General usage of the API follows the
|
|
following syntax: `host:port/{index}/_mapping/{type}` where both
|
|
`{index}` and `{type}` can accept a comma-separated list of names. To
|
|
get mappings for all indices you can use `_all` for `{index}`. The
|
|
following are some examples:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_mapping/twitter,kimchy'
|
|
|
|
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_all/_mapping/tweet,book'
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to get mappings of all indices and types then the following
|
|
two examples are equivalent:
|
|
|
|
coming[1.4.0,The API will always include a `mappings` section, even if there aren't any mappings. Previous versions would not return the `mappings` section]

[source,js]

--------------------------------------------------
|
|
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_all/_mapping'
|
|
|
|
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_mapping'
