Description
InternalComposite.formatObject() can throw an IllegalArgumentException if the format to be applied to a composite key leads to a loss of information (eg, a date histogram with a width of one day is then given a date format of 'YYYY-mm', meaning that multiple buckets from the same month would produce the same key). This is currently only checked during serialization, meaning that we can do a great deal of work building aggregations only to then throw the result away at the end. This also causes a problem for converting the
_search
endpoint to using chunked xcontent serialization, as the HTTP response code is the first thing sent back, and so errors that occur during later serialization don't get handled correctly.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
