I am trying to use the Java API (v1.0.0) to create a custom mapping for my
index but have run into a problem. More specifically, some of my mapping
fields (for example, "format" and "index") are not being stored as part of
the mapping in Elastic Search. In fact, the only field that is being stored
is the "type" field. However, if I use the CURL API, everything works as
expected and all fields are stored properly in my mapping. Has anyone seen
this problem when using the Java API? Is this a bug? I put together a very
simple example that demonstrates my bug below:
--- SOURCE CODE ---
Client client = new TransportClient().addTransportAddress(new
InetSocketTransportAddress(_hostname,_port));
XContentBuilder mapping = XContentFactory.jsonBuilder()
.startObject().startObject("type_name")
.startObject("properties")
.startObject("ATTRIBUTE1")
.field("type","string")
.field("format","dateOptionalTime")
.endObject()
.startObject("ATTRIBUTE2")
.field("type","long")
.field("index","not_analyzed")
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject();
client.admin().indices().preparePutMapping("index_name").setType("type_name").setSource(mapping).execute().actionGet();
--- OUTPUT ---
Below is the mapping created in ES after running the code snippet above
(from http://localhost:9200/index_name/_mapping?pretty). Notice that only
the "type" fields were stored in the mapping.
{
"index_name" : {
"mappings" : {
"type_name" : {
"properties" : {
"ATTRIBUTE1" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"ATTRIBUTE2" : {
"type" : "long"
}
}
}
}
}
}
