Put transform API
editPut transform API
editCreates a new transform.
The API accepts a PutTransformRequest
object as a request and returns a AcknowledgedResponse
.
Put transform request
editA 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 configuration
editThe TransformConfig
object contains all the details about the
transform configuration and contains the following arguments:
SourceConfig
editThe 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();
DestConfig
editThe 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();
QueryConfig
editThe query with which to select data from the source.
QueryConfig queryConfig = new QueryConfig(new MatchAllQueryBuilder());
PivotConfig
editDefines the pivot function group by
fields and the aggregation to reduce the data.
PivotConfig pivotConfig = PivotConfig.builder() .setGroups(groupConfig) .setAggregationConfig(aggConfig) .build();
GroupConfig
editThe 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
AggregationConfig
editDefines the aggregations for the group fields.
SettingsConfig
editDefines settings.
Synchronous execution
editWhen 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 execution
editExecuting 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:
Response
editThe returned AcknowledgedResponse
acknowledges the successful creation of
the new transform or an error if the configuration is invalid.
