Creating a search pipeline
Search pipelines are stored in the cluster state. To create a search pipeline, you must configure an ordered list of processors in your OpenSearch cluster. You can have more than one processor of the same type in the pipeline. Each processor has a tag
identifier that distinguishes it from the others. Tagging a specific processor can be helpful when debugging error messages, especially if you add multiple processors of the same type.
Example request
The following request creates a search pipeline with a filter_query
request processor that uses a term query to return only public messages and a response processor that renames the field message
to notification
:
PUT /_search/pipeline/my_pipeline
{
"request_processors": [
{
"filter_query" : {
"tag" : "tag1",
"description" : "This processor is going to restrict to publicly visible documents",
"query" : {
"term": {
"visibility": "public"
}
}
}
}
],
"response_processors": [
{
"rename_field": {
"field": "message",
"target_field": "notification"
}
}
]
}
{% include copy-curl.html %}
Ignoring processor failures
By default, a search pipeline stops if one of its processors fails. If you want the pipeline to continue running when a processor fails, you can set the ignore_failure
parameter for that processor to true
when creating the pipeline:
"filter_query" : {
"tag" : "tag1",
"description" : "This processor is going to restrict to publicly visible documents",
"ignore_failure": true,
"query" : {
"term": {
"visibility": "public"
}
}
}
If the processor fails, OpenSearch logs the failure and continues to run all remaining processors in the search pipeline. To check whether there were any failures, you can use search pipeline metrics.
Updating a search pipeline
To update a search pipeline dynamically, replace the search pipeline using the Search Pipeline API.
Example request
The following example request upserts my_pipeline
by adding a filter_query
request processor and a rename_field
response processor:
PUT /_search/pipeline/my_pipeline
{
"request_processors": [
{
"filter_query": {
"tag": "tag1",
"description": "This processor returns only publicly visible documents",
"query": {
"term": {
"visibility": "public"
}
}
}
}
],
"response_processors": [
{
"rename_field": {
"field": "message",
"target_field": "notification"
}
}
]
}
{% include copy-curl.html %}
Search pipeline versions
When creating your pipeline, you can specify a version for it in the version
parameter:
PUT _search/pipeline/my_pipeline
{
"version": 1234,
"request_processors": [
{
"script": {
"source": """
if (ctx._source['size'] > 100) {
ctx._source['explain'] = false;
}
"""
}
}
]
}
{% include copy-curl.html %}
The version is provided in all subsequent responses to get pipeline
requests:
GET _search/pipeline/my_pipeline
The response contains the pipeline version:
Response
{: .text-delta}{
"my_pipeline": {
"version": 1234,
"request_processors": [
{
"script": {
"source": """
if (ctx._source['size'] > 100) {
ctx._source['explain'] = false;
}
"""
}
}
]
}
}
