6.2.1 (2018-07-03)

• allow users to redefine doc_type in Index (#929)
• include DocType in elasticsearch_dsl module directly (#930)

6.2.0 (2018-07-03)

Backwards incompatible change - DocType refactoring.

In 6.2.0 we refactored the DocType class and renamed it to Document. The primary motivation for this was the support for types being dropped from elasticsearch itself in 7.x - we needed to somehow link the Index and Document classes. To do this we split the options that were previously defined in the class Meta between it and newly introduced class Index. The split is that all options that were tied to mappings (like setting dynamic = MetaField('strict')) remain in class Meta and all options for index definition (like settings, name, or aliases) got moved to the new class Index.

You can see some examples of the new functionality in the examples directory. Documentation has been updated to reflect the new API.

DocType is now just an alias for Document which will be removed in 7.x. It does, however, work in the new way which is not fully backwards compatible.

• Percolator field now expects Query objects as values
• you can no longer access meta fields on a Document instance by specifying ._id or similar. Instead all access needs to happen via the .meta attribute.
• Implemented NestedFacet for FacetedSearch. This brought a need to slightly change the semantics of Facet.get_values which now expects the whole data dict for the aggregation, not just the buckets. This is a backwards incompatible change for custom aggregations that redefine that method.
• Document.update now supports refresh kwarg
• DslBase._clone now produces a shallow copy, this means that modifying an existing query can have effects on existing Search objects.
• Empty Search no longer defaults to match_all query and instead leaves the query key empty. This is backwards incompatible when using suggest.

6.1.0 (2018-01-09)

• Removed String field.
• Fixed issue with Object/Nested deserialization

6.0.1 (2018-01-02)

Fixing wheel package for Python 2.7 (#803)

6.0.0 (2018-01-01)

Backwards incompatible release compatible with elasticsearch 6.0, changes include:

• use doc as default DocType name, this change includes: * DocType._doc_type.matches method is now used to determine which DocType should be used for a hit instead of just checking _type

• Nested and Object field refactoring using newly introduced InnerDoc class. To define a Nested/Object field just define the InnerDoc subclass and then use it when defining the field:

  class Comment(InnerDoc):
      body = Text()
      created_at = Date()
  
  class Blog(DocType):
      comments = Nested(Comment)
  

• methods on connections singleton are now exposed on the connections module directly.

• field values are now only deserialized when coming from elasticsearch (via from_es method) and not when assigning values in python (either by direct assignment or in __init__).

5.4.0 (2017-12-06)

• fix ip_range aggregation and rename the class to IPRange. Iprange is kept for bw compatibility
• fix bug in loading an aggregation with meta data from dict
• add support for normalizer parameter of Keyword fields

• Boolean field now accepts "false" as False

5.3.0 (2017-05-18)

• fix constant score query definition
• DateHistogramFacet now works with datetime objects
• respect __ in field names when creating queries from dict

5.2.0 (2017-03-26)

• make sure all response structers are pickleable (for caching)
• adding exclude to Search
• fix metric aggregation deserialization
• expose all index-level APIs on Index class
• adding delete to Search which calls delete_by_query API

5.1.0 (2017-01-08)

• Renamed Result and ResultMeta to Hit and HitMeta respectively
• Response now stores Search which it gets as first arg to __init__
• aggregation results are now wrapped in classes and properly deserialized
• Date fields now allow for numerical timestamps in the java format (in millis)
• Added API documentation
• replaced generated classes with manually created

5.0.0 (2016-11-04)

Version compatible with elasticsearch 5.0.

Breaking changes:

• String field type has been deprecated in favor of Text and Keyword
• fields method has been removed in favor of source filtering

2.2.0 (2016-11-04)

• accessing missing string fields no longer returnd '' but returns None instead.
• fix issues with bool's | and & operators and minimum_should_match

2.1.0 (2016-06-29)

• inner_hits are now also wrapped in Response
• + operator is deprecated, .query() now uses & to combine queries

• fixed validation for "empty" values like '' and []

2.0.0 (2016-02-18)

Compatibility with Elasticsearch 2.x:

• Filters have been removed and additional queries have been added. Instead of F objects you can now use Q.
• Search.filter is now just a shortcut to add queries in filter context
• support for pipeline aggregations added

Backwards incompatible changes:

• list of analysis objects and classes was removed, any string used as tokenizer, char or token filter or analyzer will be treated as a builtin
• internal method Field.to_python has been renamed to deserialize and an optional serialization mechanic for fields has been added.
• Custom response class is now set by response_class method instead of a kwarg to Search.execute

Other changes:

• FacetedSearch now supports pagination via slicing

• Search no longer accepts positional parameters
• Experimental MultiSearch API
• added option to talk to _suggest endpoint (execute_suggest)

0.0.9 (2015-10-26)

• FacetedSearch now uses its own Facet class instead of built in aggregations

0.0.8 (2015-08-28)

• 0.0.5 and 0.0.6 was released with broken .tar.gz on pypi, just a build fix

0.0.5 (2015-08-27)

• added support for (index/search)_analyzer via #143, thanks @wkiser!
• even keys accessed via ['field'] on AttrDict will be wrapped in Attr[Dict|List] for consistency
• Added a convenient option to specify a custom doc_class to wrap inner/Nested documents
• blank option has been removed
• AttributeError is no longer raised when accessing an empty field.
• added required flag to fields and validation hooks to fields and (sub)documents
• removed get method from AttrDict. Use getattr(d, key, default) instead.
