So you want to contribute code to OpenSearch Search Processor? Excellent! We're glad you're here. Here's what you need to do.
Fork opensearch-project/OpenSearch Search Processor and clone locally.
Example:
git clone https://github.com/[your username]/search-processor.git
OpenSearch builds using Java 11 at a minimum. This means you must have a JDK 11 installed with the environment variable
JAVA_HOME
referencing the path to Java home for your JDK 11 installation, e.g. JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-11
.
One easy way to get Java 11 on *nix is to use sdkman.
curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash
source ~/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh
sdk install java 11.0.2-open
sdk use java 11.0.2-open
Team has to replace minimum JDK version 14 as it was not an LTS release. JDK 14 should still work for most scenarios. In addition to this, the plugin has been tested with JDK 17, and this JDK version is fully supported.
Currently, the plugin supports Windows and Linux on x64 and arm platforms.
When importing into IntelliJ you will need to define an appropriate JDK. The convention is that this SDK should be named "11", and the project import will detect it automatically. For more details on defining an SDK in IntelliJ please refer to this documentation. Note that SDK definitions are global, so you can add the JDK from any project, or after project import. Importing with a missing JDK will still work, IntelliJ will report a problem and will refuse to build until resolved.
You can import the Search Processor project into IntelliJ IDEA as follows.
- Select File > Open
- In the subsequent dialog navigate to the root
build.gradle
file - In the subsequent dialog select Open as Project
Taken from OpenSearch's guidelines:
Java files in the OpenSearch codebase are formatted with the Eclipse JDT formatter, using the Spotless Gradle plugin. The formatting check can be run explicitly with:
./gradlew spotlessJavaCheck
The code can be formatted with:
./gradlew spotlessApply
Please follow these formatting guidelines:
- Java indent is 4 spaces
- Line width is 140 characters
- Lines of code surrounded by
// tag::NAME
and// end::NAME
comments are included in the documentation and should only be 76 characters wide not counting leading indentation. Such regions of code are not formatted automatically as it is not possible to change the line length rule of the formatter for part of a file. Please format such sections sympathetically with the rest of the code, while keeping lines to maximum length of 76 characters. - Wildcard imports (
import foo.bar.baz.*
) are forbidden and will cause the build to fail. - If absolutely necessary, you can disable formatting for regions of code with the
// tag::NAME
and// end::NAME
directives, but note that these are intended for use in documentation, so please make it clear what you have done, and only do this where the benefit clearly outweighs the decrease in consistency. - Note that JavaDoc and block comments i.e.
/* ... */
are not formatted, but line comments i.e// ...
are. - There is an implicit rule that negative boolean expressions should use the form
foo == false
instead of!foo
for better readability of the code. While this isn't strictly enforced, if might get called out in PR reviews as something to change.
OpenSearch Search Processor uses a Gradle wrapper for its build.
Run gradlew
on Unix systems.
Run gradlew.bat
on Windows systems.
Build OpenSearch Search Processor using gradlew build
or `gradlew.bat build'
# Unix
./gradlew build
# Windows
./gradlew.bat build
./gradlew build
Run OpenSearch Search Processor using gradlew run
.
./gradlew run
That will build OpenSearch and start it, writing its log above Gradle's status message. We log a lot of stuff on startup, specifically these lines tell you that plugin is ready.

in another window to check if OpenSearch instance is running.

It can be useful to test and debug on a multi-node cluster. In order to launch a 3 node cluster with the Search Processor plugin installed, run the following command:
./gradlew run -PnumNodes=3
In order to run the integration tests with a 3 node cluster, run this command:
./gradlew :integTest -PnumNodes=3
Integration tests can be run with remote cluster. For that run the following command and replace host/port/cluster name values with ones for the target cluster:
./gradlew :integTestRemote -Dtests.rest.cluster=localhost:9200 -Dtests.cluster=localhost:9200 -Dtests.clustername="integTest-0" -Dhttps=false -PnumNodes=1
In case remote cluster is secured it's possible to pass username and password with the following command:
./gradlew :integTestRemote -Dtests.rest.cluster=localhost:9200 -Dtests.cluster=localhost:9200 -Dtests.clustername="integTest-0" -Dhttps=true -Duser=admin -Dpassword=admin
Sometimes it is useful to attach a debugger to either the OpenSearch cluster or the integration test runner to see what's going on. For running unit tests, hit Debug from the IDE's gutter to debug the tests. For the OpenSearch cluster, first, make sure that the debugger is listening on port 5005
. Then, to debug the cluster code, run:
./gradlew :integTest -Dcluster.debug=1 # to start a cluster with debugger and run integ tests
OR
./gradlew run --debug-jvm # to just start a cluster that can be debugged
The OpenSearch server JVM will connect to a debugger attached to localhost:5005
before starting. If there are multiple nodes, the servers will connect to debuggers listening on ports 5005, 5006, ...
To debug code running in an integration test (which exercises the server from a separate JVM), first, setup a remote debugger listening on port 8000
, and then run:
./gradlew :integTest -Dtest.debug=1
The test runner JVM will connect to a debugger attached to localhost:8000
before running the tests.
Additionally, it is possible to attach one debugger to the cluster JVM and another debugger to the test runner. First, make sure one debugger is listening on port 5005
and the other is listening on port 8000
. Then, run:
./gradlew :integTest -Dtest.debug=1 -Dcluster.debug=1
The purpose of Backwards Compatibility Testing and different types of BWC tests are explained here
Use these commands to run BWC tests for Search Processor:
- Rolling upgrade tests:
./gradlew :qa:rolling-upgrade:testRollingUpgrade
- Full restart upgrade tests:
./gradlew :qa:restart-upgrade:testRestartUpgrade
./gradlew :qa:bwcTestSuite
is used to run all the above bwc tests together.
Use this command to run BWC tests for a given Backwards Compatibility Version:
./gradlew :qa:bwcTestSuite -Dbwc.version=1.0.0
Here, we are testing BWC Tests with BWC version of plugin as 1.0.0.
Before adding any new tests to Backward Compatibility Tests, we should be aware that the tests in BWC are not independent. While creating an index, a test cannot use the same index name if it is already used in other tests. Also, adding extra operations to the existing test may impact other existing tests.
See CONTRIBUTING.
The Github workflow in backport.yml
creates backport PRs automatically when the
original PR with an appropriate label backport <backport-branch-name>
is merged to main with the backport workflow
run successfully on the PR. For example, if a PR on main needs to be backported to 1.x
branch, add a label
backport 1.x
to the PR and make sure the backport workflow runs on the PR along with other checks. Once this PR is
merged to main, the workflow will create a backport PR to the 1.x
branch.
Note: Search Processor is targeted for a 2.5 release and we have no plans to backport to earlier versions.
