This is the first x-pack API we're adding to the high level REST client so there is a lot to talk about here! = Open source The *client* for these APIs is open source. We're taking the previously Elastic licensed files used for the `Request` and `Response` objects and relicensing them under the Apache 2 license. The implementation of these features is staying under the Elastic license. This lines up with how the rest of the Elasticsearch language clients work. = Location of the new files We're moving all of the `Request` and `Response` objects that we're relicensing to the `x-pack/protocol` directory. We're adding a copy of the Apache 2 license to the root fo the `x-pack/protocol` directory to line up with the language in the root `LICENSE.txt` file. All files in this directory will have the Apache 2 license header as well. We don't want there to be any confusion. Even though the files are under the `x-pack` directory, they are Apache 2 licensed. We chose this particular directory layout because it keeps the X-Pack stuff together and easier to think about. = Location of the API in the REST client We've been following the layout of the rest-api-spec files for other APIs and we plan to do this for the X-Pack APIs with one exception: we're dropping the `xpack` from the name of most of the APIs. So `xpack.graph.explore` will become `graph().explore()` and `xpack.license.get` will become `license().get()`. `xpack.info` and `xpack.usage` are special here though because they don't belong to any proper category. For now I'm just calling `xpack.info` `xPackInfo()` and intend to call usage `xPackUsage` though I'm not convinced that this is the final name for them. But it does get us started. = Jars, jars everywhere! This change makes the `xpack:protocol` project a `compile` scoped dependency of the `x-pack:plugin:core` and `client:rest-high-level` projects. I intend to keep it a compile scoped dependency of `x-pack:plugin:core` but I intend to bundle the contents of the protocol jar into the `client:rest-high-level` jar in a follow up. This change has grown large enough at this point. In that followup I'll address javadoc issues as well. = Breaking-Java This breaks that transport client by a few classes around. We've traditionally been ok with doing this to the transport client. |
