Is it possible to use Elasticsearch index aliases for document write and read operations? I’ve been using Elasticseach for a few years and managing indexes is a challenge when wanting to keep shard sizes down. Elasticsearch IML greatly helps with this and I want to use it. However, this requires the…

This is not currently supported. I know we will need to work with aliases in order to implement zero-downtime reindexing , though, so I’d be really interested in how you see this working. Please create a ticket on JIRA and detail what you need, ideally with an example of how you imagine yourself con…

@yrodiere thank you for the response. I only plan to use Hibernate Search to write documents, execute searches, and read documents to/from Elasticsearch. I do not plan to use it to create my indexes (setting, mappings, aliases, etc) or any other type of management. My thought process her is that I …

sorry for the double reply. i didnt see that the responses get screened first

Thanks for the feedback, this makes a lot of sense. Some thoughts: I’d recommend using the validate lifecycle strategy instead of none, to check at startup that the Elasticsearch mapping matches your Hibernate Search mapping. Any particular reason you picked none instead of validate? You mentione…

I have none set for now but may switch to validate in the future. It all depends on if the mappings I create which works at run-time pass the validation expected by Hibernate Search. Are the indexes validated on startup or on first document insert/read? For ILM rollover, you are correct. The sa…

[image] aaronloes: Are the indexes validated on startup or on first document insert/read? They are validated on startup. There are plans to expose APIs so that you can trigger validation explicitly, but we’re not there yet. [image] aaronloes: For ILM rollover, you are correct. The same a…

Apologies for the delay. I’ve created the feature request in JIRA https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HSEARCH-3765 I’ve read the other two JIRA documents and didnt see the need to add any additional comments.

@yrodiere [image] yrodiere: I’d recommend using the validate lifecycle strategy instead of none , to check at startup that the Elasticsearch mapping matches your Hibernate Search mapping. Any particular reason you picked none instead of validate ? I now remember why I don’t use validate. Be…

[image] aaronloes: (Why add the annotations the library uses to managing indexes if you don’t want the library to manage the indexes?) Sure. That being said, I’d expect schema validation to still work, even if you don’t register your analyzers in Hibernate Search. Schema validation is suppos…

Sure. I’m mocking some of this up but hopefully it’ll demonstrate what I’m seeing. Also should note that my application works as I expect it to with how I have it setup. Given the following index mapping/settings { "widgets" : { "mappings" : { "dynamic" : "strict", "properties" :…
