Upgrading from 4.1.x to 4.2.x
This section describes breaking changes from version 4.1.x to 4.2.x and how removed features can be replaced by new introduced features.
Removals
The @Score annotation that was used to set the score return value in an entity was deprecated in version 4.0 and has been removed.
Score values are returned in the SearchHit instances that encapsulate the returned entities.
The org.springframework.data.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchException class has been removed.
The remaining usages have been replaced with org.springframework.data.mapping.MappingException and org.springframework.dao.InvalidDataAccessApiUsageException.
The deprecated ScoredPage, ScrolledPage @AggregatedPage and implementations has been removed.
The deprecated GetQuery and DeleteQuery have been removed.
The deprecated find methods from ReactiveSearchOperations and ReactiveDocumentOperations have been removed.
Breaking Changes
RefreshPolicy
Enum package changed
It was possible in 4.1 to configure the refresh policy for the ReactiveElasticsearchTemplate by overriding the method AbstractReactiveElasticsearchConfiguration.refreshPolicy() in a custom configuration class.
The return value of this method was an instance of the class org.elasticsearch.action.support.WriteRequest.RefreshPolicy.
Now the configuration must return org.springframework.data.elasticsearch.core.RefreshPolicy.
This enum has the same values and triggers the same behaviour as before, so only the import statement has to be adjusted.
Refresh behaviour
ElasticsearchOperations and ReactiveElasticsearchOperations now explicitly use the RefreshPolicy set on the template for write requests if not null.
If the refresh policy is null, then nothing special is done, so the cluster defaults are used. ElasticsearchOperations was always using the cluster default before this version.
The provided implementations for ElasticsearchRepository and ReactiveElasticsearchRepository will do an explicit refresh when the refresh policy is null.
This is the same behaviour as in previous versions.
If a refresh policy is set, then it will be used by the repositories as well.
Refresh configuration
When configuring Spring Data Elasticsearch like described in Elasticsearch Clients by using ElasticsearchConfigurationSupport, AbstractElasticsearchConfiguration or AbstractReactiveElasticsearchConfiguration the refresh policy will be initialized to null.
Previously the reactive code initialized this to IMMEDIATE, now reactive and non-reactive code show the same behaviour.
Method return types
delete methods that take a Query
The reactive methods previously returned a Mono<Long> with the number of deleted documents, the non reactive versions were void. They now return a Mono<ByQueryResponse> which contains much more detailed information about the deleted documents and errors that might have occurred.
multiget methods
The implementations of multiget previousl only returned the found entities in a List<T> for non-reactive implementations and in a Flux<T> for reactive implementations. If the request contained ids that were not found, the information that these are missing was not available. The user needed to compare the returned ids to the requested ones to find
which ones were missing.
Now the multiget methods return a MultiGetItem for every requested id. This contains information about failures (like non existing indices) and the information if the item existed (then it is contained in the `MultiGetItem) or not.
