We've recently announced our roadmap for 8.0.0 and have begun issuing deprecation warnings in the 7.x release stream to prepare users for upgrading to 8.0.0 when available.

Added

• Added more precise type hints to many API parameters
• Added explicit parameters to AsyncTransport and AIOHttpConnection
• Added MapboxVectorTileSerializer for handling the application/vnd.mapbox-vector-tile mimetype. Because this mimetype is binary rather than text the raw response bytes are forwarded from the serializer without decoding

Fixed

• Reduced amount of time to import the elasticsearch module by delaying imports of pandas and numpy until later in the JSON serialization stage if necessary

APIs

• Deprecated positional arguments for APIs, instead use keyword arguments exclusively.

Search

• Added the search_mvt experimental API
• Added body field parameters to the search, scroll, and clear_scroll APIs
• Deprecated the body parameter of the search, scroll, and clear_scroll APIs

Documents

• Added body field parameters to the update API
• Added the document parameter to the create and index APIs
• Deprecated the body parameter of the create, index, and update APIs

Indices

• Added the indices.disk_usage experimental API
• Added the indices.fields_usage_stats experimental API
• Added body field parameters to the indices.create API
• Deprecated the body parameter of the indices.create API

Machine Learning

• Added the ignore_unavailable, allow_no_indices, ignore_throttled, and expand_wildcards parameters to the ml.put_job API

Nodes

• Added the nodes.clear_repositories_metering_archive experimental API
• Added the nodes.get_repositories_metering_info experimental API
• Added the shards option to the index_metric parameter of the nodes.stats API
• Deprecated the doc_type parameter of the nodes.hot_threads API, instead use the type parameter
