WARNING: Deprecated in 7.15.0.
The Java REST Client is deprecated in favor of the Java API Client.
Create transform APIedit
Creates a new transform.
The API accepts a PutTransformRequest
object as a request and returns a AcknowledgedResponse
.
Create transform requestedit
A PutTransformRequest
requires the following argument:
PutTransformRequest request = new PutTransformRequest(transformConfig); request.setDeferValidation(false);
The configuration of the transform to create |
|
Whether or not to wait to run deferrable validations until |
Transform configurationedit
The TransformConfig
object contains all the details about the
transform configuration and contains the following arguments:
TransformConfig transformConfig = TransformConfig .builder() .setId("reviewer-avg-rating") .setSource(sourceConfig) .setDest(destConfig) .setFrequency(TimeValue.timeValueSeconds(15)) .setPivotConfig(pivotConfig) .setDescription("This is my test transform") .setSettings(settings) .setRetentionPolicyConfig(retentionPolicy) .setSyncConfig(syncConfig) .build();
The transform ID |
|
The source indices and query from which to gather data |
|
The destination index and optional pipeline |
|
Optional, indicates how often to check for updates to the source indices |
|
The PivotConfig |
|
Optional free text description of the transform |
|
Optional transform settings |
|
Optional retention policy for the data in the destination index |
|
Details required only when the transform runs continuously |
SourceConfigedit
The indices and the query from which to collect data.
If query is not set, a match_all
query is used by default.
SourceConfig sourceConfig = SourceConfig.builder() .setIndex("source-index") .setQueryConfig(queryConfig).build();
DestConfigedit
The index where to write the data and the optional pipeline through which the docs should be indexed
DestConfig destConfig = DestConfig.builder() .setIndex("pivot-destination") .setPipeline("my-pipeline").build();
QueryConfigedit
The query with which to select data from the source.
QueryConfig queryConfig = new QueryConfig(new MatchAllQueryBuilder());
PivotConfigedit
Defines the pivot function group by
fields and the aggregation to reduce the data.
PivotConfig pivotConfig = PivotConfig.builder() .setGroups(groupConfig) .setAggregationConfig(aggConfig) .build();
GroupConfigedit
The grouping terms. Defines the group by and destination fields which are produced by the pivot function. There are 3 types of groups
- Terms
- Histogram
- Date Histogram
AggregationConfigedit
Defines the aggregations for the group fields.
RetentionPolicyConfigedit
Defines a retention policy for the transform. Data that meets the defined criteria is deleted from the destination index.
SettingsConfigedit
Defines settings.
SyncConfigedit
Defines the properties transforms require to run continuously.
Synchronous executionedit
When executing a PutTransformRequest
in the following manner, the client waits
for the AcknowledgedResponse
to be returned before continuing with code execution:
AcknowledgedResponse response = client.transform().putTransform( request, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
Synchronous calls may throw an IOException
in case of either failing to
parse the REST response in the high-level REST client, the request times out
or similar cases where there is no response coming back from the server.
In cases where the server returns a 4xx
or 5xx
error code, the high-level
client tries to parse the response body error details instead and then throws
a generic ElasticsearchException
and adds the original ResponseException
as a
suppressed exception to it.
Asynchronous executionedit
Executing a PutTransformRequest
can also be done in an asynchronous fashion so that
the client can return directly. Users need to specify how the response or
potential failures will be handled by passing the request and a listener to the
asynchronous put-transform method:
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. Failure scenarios and expected exceptions are the same as in the
synchronous execution case.
A typical listener for put-transform
looks like:
Responseedit
The returned AcknowledgedResponse
acknowledges the successful creation of
the new transform or an error if the configuration is invalid.
