I want to be able to insert documents and preferably map all inner objects to nested ones automatically. Is this possible?
My specific use case is that I am collecting documents of the same type that may or may not have the same fields of those currently in the store. So I would prefer if it can just automatically do the nested mapping without me having to tell it to do so.
Barring that could I potentially update the index before I insert an object with new fields? And would it be ok if I just set the type of the nested property to nested without specifying the fields of the property?
Code:
client.IndicesPutMapping("captures", "capture", new
{
capture = new
{
properties = new
{
CustomerInformations = new
{
type = "nested",
//...do not specify inner fields ?
}
}
}
});
- Is partially mappings allowed when overriding mappings. In other words if I have the mapping above will the other properties of the capture objects still be mapped in a default way?
