Arguments

conn

an Elasticsearch connection object, see connect()

index

(character) The name of the index. Required

id

(numeric/character) The document ID. Can be numeric or character. Required

body

The document, either a list or json

type

(character) The type of the document. optional

fields

A comma-separated list of fields to return in the response

source

Allows to control if and how the updated source should be returned in the response. By default the updated source is not returned.

version

(character) Explicit version number for concurrency control

version_type

(character) Specific version type. One of internal, external, external_gte, or force

routing

(character) Specific routing value

parent

ID of the parent document. Is is only used for routing and when for the upsert request

timestamp

(date) Explicit timestamp for the document

ttl

(aka “time to live”) Expiration time for the document. Expired documents will be expunged automatically. The expiration date that will be set for a document with a provided ttl is relative to the timestamp of the document, meaning it can be based on the time of indexing or on any time provided. The provided ttl must be strictly positive and can be a number (in milliseconds) or any valid time value (e.g, 86400000, 1d).

refresh

Refresh the index after performing the operation.

timeout

(character) Explicit operation timeout, e.g,. 5m (for 5 minutes)

retry_on_conflict

Specify how many times should the operation be retried when a conflict occurs (default: 0)

wait_for_active_shards

The number of shard copies required to be active before proceeding with the update operation.

detect_noop

(logical) Specifying TRUE will cause Elasticsearch to check if there are changes and, if there aren't, turn the update request into a noop.

callopts

Curl options passed on to crul::HttpClient

Examples

# NOT RUN {
(x <- connect())
if (!index_exists(x, 'plos')) {
  plosdat <- system.file("examples", "plos_data.json",
    package = "elastic")
  plosdat <- type_remover(plosdat)
  invisible(docs_bulk(x, plosdat))
}

docs_create(x, index='plos', id=1002,
  body=list(id="12345", title="New title"))
# and the document is there now
docs_get(x, index='plos', id=1002)
# update the document
docs_update(x, index='plos', id=1002,
  body = list(doc = list(title = "Even newer title again")))
# get it again, notice changes
docs_get(x, index='plos', id=1002)

if (!index_exists(x, 'stuffthings')) {
  index_create(x, "stuffthings")
}
docs_create(x, index='stuffthings', id=1,
  body=list(name = "foo", what = "bar"))
docs_update(x, index='stuffthings', id=1,
  body = list(doc = list(name = "hello", what = "bar")),
  source = 'name')
