Thanks for the tips.
In case anyone else is looking for a similar solution, my problem had to do
with types. The mapping that ended up working is:
{
"test" : {
"transform" : {
"script" : "ctx._source['date_created'] =
ctx._source['date_created'].toLong() * 1000",
"lang": "groovy"
},
"properties" : {
"date_created" : {"type" : "date"},
}
}
}
Note the "toLong()".
Also, once a script is modified, it appears as though the type has to be
deleted and the mapping re-applied for the changes to take effect.
