Interface ActionPlugin

All Known Subinterfaces:

SystemIndexPlugin

public interface ActionPlugin

An additional extension point for Plugins that extends Elasticsearch's scripting functionality. Implement it like this:

   {@literal @}Override
   public List<ActionHandler<?, ?>> getActions() {
       return Arrays.asList(new ActionHandler<>(ReindexAction.INSTANCE, TransportReindexAction.class),
               new ActionHandler<>(UpdateByQueryAction.INSTANCE, TransportUpdateByQueryAction.class),
               new ActionHandler<>(DeleteByQueryAction.INSTANCE, TransportDeleteByQueryAction.class),
               new ActionHandler<>(RethrottleAction.INSTANCE, TransportRethrottleAction.class));
   }

Method Details

getActions

default List<ActionPlugin.ActionHandler<? extends ActionRequest,? extends ActionResponse>> getActions()

Actions added by this plugin.

getClientActions

default List<ActionType<? extends ActionResponse>> getClientActions()

Client actions added by this plugin. This defaults to all of the ActionType in getActions().

getActionFilters

default List<ActionFilter> getActionFilters()

ActionType filters added by this plugin.

getRestHandlers

default List<RestHandler> getRestHandlers(Settings settings,
 RestController restController,
 ClusterSettings clusterSettings,
 IndexScopedSettings indexScopedSettings,
 SettingsFilter settingsFilter,
 IndexNameExpressionResolver indexNameExpressionResolver,
 Supplier<DiscoveryNodes> nodesInCluster)

Rest handlers added by this plugin.

getRestHeaders

default Collection<RestHeaderDefinition> getRestHeaders()

Returns headers which should be copied through rest requests on to internal requests.

getTaskHeaders

default Collection<String> getTaskHeaders()

Returns headers which should be copied from internal requests into tasks.

getRestHandlerWrapper

default UnaryOperator<RestHandler> getRestHandlerWrapper(ThreadContext threadContext)

Returns a function used to wrap each rest request before handling the request. The returned UnaryOperator is called for every incoming rest request and receives the original rest handler as it's input. This allows adding arbitrary functionality around rest request handlers to do for instance logging or authentication. A simple example of how to only allow GET request is here:

 
    UnaryOperator<RestHandler> getRestHandlerWrapper(ThreadContext threadContext) {
      return originalHandler -> (RestHandler) (request, channel, client) -> {
        if (request.method() != Method.GET) {
          throw new IllegalStateException("only GET requests are allowed");
        }
        originalHandler.handleRequest(request, channel, client);
      };
    }
 
 

Note: Only one installed plugin may implement a rest wrapper.

mappingRequestValidators

default Collection<RequestValidators.RequestValidator<PutMappingRequest>> mappingRequestValidators()

Returns a collection of validators that are used by RequestValidators to validate a PutMappingRequest before the executing it.

indicesAliasesRequestValidators

default Collection<RequestValidators.RequestValidator<IndicesAliasesRequest>> indicesAliasesRequestValidators()
