Only storing one mapping

[clintongormley]

Hiya

Something weird is going on with put_mapping, eg:

• index /foo/one/ -d { "xxx": "text"}

• mappings for index 'foo' shows the correct mapping for 'one'

• index /foo/two -d {"yyy": "text"}

• mappings for index 'foo' shows the mapping for 'one' but not 'two'

or

• index /foo/one/ -d { "xxx": "text"}

• mappings for index 'foo' shows the correct mapping for 'one'

• put_mapping /foo/two -d { properties: {"yyy": { type: "string"}}}

• mappings for index 'foo' shows the mapping for 'one' but not 'two'

or

• put_mapping /foo/one -d { properties: {"xxx": { type: "string"}}}

• mappings for index 'foo' shows the correct mapping for 'one'

• put_mapping /foo/two -d { properties: {"yyy": { type: "string"}}}

• mappings for index 'foo' shows the mapping for 'two' but not for 'one'

Example below:

curl -XPOST 'http://127.0.0.2:9200/foo/one'  -d '
{
   "xxx" : "text"
}
'
# {
#    "ok" : true,
#    "_index" : "foo",
#    "_id" : "340e1d15-3dfd-4a8e-95ec-1c29fb8e9182",
#    "_type" : "one"
# }

Btw, it looks like the mapping is still enforced, you're just not merging the JSON metadata correctly

[kimchy]

I am not sure I understand. I indexed into type one, and indexed into type two, and then ran the _cluster/state and I do see the two mappings.

By the way, the mappings returned were wrong in terms of JSON response, since I returned the same object name (mapping) for each one. I fixed it. Maybe that was the reason?

[clintongormley]

yep, the old "json properties SHOULD..." issue - your commit fixed it.

thanks

[kimchy]

No problem. I thought I went over all the places and fixed them, guess I missed this one.

[kimchy]

cool, I will close the issue then.
