mapping的设置过程

mapping机制使得elasticsearch索引数据变的更加灵活，近乎于no schema。mapping可以在建立索引时设置，也可以在后期设置。

后期设置可以是修改mapping（无法对已有的field属性进行修改，一般来说只是增加新的field）或者对没有mapping的索引设置mapping。

put mapping操作必须是master节点来完成，因为它涉及到集群matedata的修改，同时它跟index和type密切相关。修改只是针对特定index的特定type。

在Action support分析中我们分析过几种Action的抽象类型，put mapping Action属于TransportMasterNodeOperationAction的子类。

put mapping

它实现了masterOperation方法，每个继承自TransportMasterNodeOperationAction的子类都会根据自己的具体功能来实现这个方法。

这里的实现如下所示：

protected void masterOperation(final PutMappingRequest request, final ClusterState state, final ActionListener<PutMappingResponse> listener) throws ElasticsearchException {
        final String[] concreteIndices = clusterService.state().metaData().concreteIndices(request.indicesOptions(), request.indices());
　　　　　　//构造request
        PutMappingClusterStateUpdateRequest updateRequest = new PutMappingClusterStateUpdateRequest()
                .ackTimeout(request.timeout()).masterNodeTimeout(request.masterNodeTimeout())
                .indices(concreteIndices).type(request.type())
                .source(request.source()).ignoreConflicts(request.ignoreConflicts());
　　　　　　//调用putMapping方法，同时传入一个Listener
        metaDataMappingService.putMapping(updateRequest, new ActionListener<ClusterStateUpdateResponse>() {
            @Override
            public void onResponse(ClusterStateUpdateResponse response) {
                listener.onResponse(new PutMappingResponse(response.isAcknowledged()));
            }
            @Override
            public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
                logger.debug("failed to put mappings on indices [{}], type [{}]", t, concreteIndices, request.type());
                listener.onFailure(t);
            }
        });
    }

以上是TransportPutMappingAction对masterOperation方法的实现，这里并没有多少复杂的逻辑和操作。具体操作在matedataMappingService中。

updateTask响应

跟之前的CreateIndex一样，put Mapping也是向master提交一个updateTask。所有逻辑也都在execute方法中。这个task的基本跟CreateIndex一样，也需要在给定的时间内响应。它的代码如下所示：

public void putMapping(final PutMappingClusterStateUpdateRequest request, final ActionListener<ClusterStateUpdateResponse> listener) {
　　　　//提交一个高基本的updateTask
        clusterService.submitStateUpdateTask("put-mapping [" + request.type() + "]", Priority.HIGH, new AckedClusterStateUpdateTask<ClusterStateUpdateResponse>(request, listener) {
            @Override
            protected ClusterStateUpdateResponse newResponse(boolean acknowledged) {
                return new ClusterStateUpdateResponse(acknowledged);
            }
            @Override
            public ClusterState execute(final ClusterState currentState) throws Exception {
                List<String> indicesToClose = Lists.newArrayList();
                try {
　　　　　　　　　　　　//必须针对已经在matadata中存在的index，否则抛出异常
                    for (String index : request.indices()) {
                        if (!currentState.metaData().hasIndex(index)) {
                            throw new IndexMissingException(new Index(index));
                        }
                    }
                    //还需要存在于indices中，否则无法进行操作。所以这里要进行预建
                    for (String index : request.indices()) {
                        if (indicesService.hasIndex(index)) {
                            continue;
                        }
                        final IndexMetaData indexMetaData = currentState.metaData().index(index);
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　//不存在就进行创建
                        IndexService indexService = indicesService.createIndex(indexMetaData.index(), indexMetaData.settings(), clusterService.localNode().id());
                        indicesToClose.add(indexMetaData.index());
                        // make sure to add custom default mapping if exists
                        if (indexMetaData.mappings().containsKey(MapperService.DEFAULT_MAPPING)) {
                            indexService.mapperService().merge(MapperService.DEFAULT_MAPPING, indexMetaData.mappings().get(MapperService.DEFAULT_MAPPING).source(), false);
                        }
                        // only add the current relevant mapping (if exists)
                        if (indexMetaData.mappings().containsKey(request.type())) {
                            indexService.mapperService().merge(request.type(), indexMetaData.mappings().get(request.type()).source(), false);
                        }

                        indicesService.removeIndex(index, "created for mapping processing");
                    }
                }
            }
        });
    }

以上就是mapping的设置过程，首先它跟Create index一样，只有master节点才能操作，而且是以task的形式提交给master；其次它的本质是将request中的mapping和index现存的或者是default mapping合并，并最终生成新的matadata更新到集群的各个节点。

总结

集群中的master操作无论是index方面还是集群方面，最终都是集群matadata的更新过程。而这些操作只能在master上进行，并且都是会超时的任务。put mapping当然也不例外。上面的两段代码基本概况了mapping的设置过程。这里就不再重复了。

这里还有一个问题没有涉及到就是mapping的合并。mapping合并会在很多地方用到。在下一节中会它进行详细分析，更多关于elasticsearch索引index put mapping设置的资料请关注我们其它相关文章！
