Relates to #55682 and #51046, and refractor the code of #56985.
The main point of this PR is adding a
copy_from
parameter for set ingest processor to supportcopy
the value of one field to another. We can copyboolean
,number
,array
,object
and other data types by the parametercopy_from
instead of usingtemplate snippet
which only producesstring
value.Why adding a new parameter to implement the
copy
function but not modifying thetemplate snippet
so that it can produceobject
orarray
value ? I think we can make it compatible with older versions, users can still usetemplate snippet
to copy the producedstring
value to other field, but also can usecopy_from
to copyobject
orarray
value from one field to another.The main changes are:
copy_from
parameter for set ingest processor.Backport of #63540
