8.9.0 Release notes

Client

edit
  • Tested versions of Ruby for 8.9.0: Ruby (MRI) 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2. JRuby 9.3 and JRuby 9.4.

  • Updated product validation. The code for the product validation was refactored in a few ways:

    • Just check header, does not check the version of the server.
    • Warns only once when there’s a general server error.
    • Removes the call to / (client.info) when doing the first request, checking on the first actual request from the client.
  • Fixes User-Agent code. In the migration to 8.x, the user agent code was extracted into transport, since we’re now using that library in other projects. So for the Elasticsearch Client, the user-agent would be reported as the one defined in elastic-transport. This release fixes the issue and brings back the user agent in the format that was being used in 7.x

Helpers

edit

This release introduces two new Helpers in the client:

  • BulkHelper - This helper provides a better developer experience when using the Bulk API. At its simplest, you can send it a collection of hashes in an array, and it will bulk ingest them into Elasticsearch.
  • ScrollHelper - This helper provides an easy way to get results from a Scroll.

See Bulk and Scroll helpers to read more about them.
