Constructor Details

JsonExtract

public JsonExtract(Source source,
 Expression str,
 Expression path)

Method Details

writeTo

public void writeTo(StreamOutput out)
             throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

getWriteableName

public String getWriteableName()

dataType

public DataType dataType()

Description copied from class: Expression

The DataType returned by executing the tree rooted at this expression. If Expression.typeResolved() returns an error then the behavior of this method is undefined. It may return a valid type. Or it may throw an exception. Or it may return a totally nonsensical type.

Specified by:

dataType in class Expression

resolveType

protected Expression.TypeResolution resolveType()

Description copied from class: Expression

The implementation of Expression.typeResolved(), which is just a caching wrapper around this method. See it's javadoc for what this method should return.

Implementations will rarely interact with the Expression.TypeResolution class directly, instead usually calling the utility methods on TypeResolutions.

Implementations should fail if Expression.childrenResolved() returns false.

Overrides:

resolveType in class Expression

foldable

public boolean foldable()

Description copied from class: Expression

Whether the expression can be evaluated statically, aka "folded", or not.

Overrides:

foldable in class Expression

process

public static void process(BytesRefBlock.Builder builder,
 org.apache.lucene.util.BytesRef str,
 org.apache.lucene.util.BytesRef path)

replaceChildren

public Expression replaceChildren(List<Expression> newChildren)

Specified by:

replaceChildren in class Node<Expression>

info

protected NodeInfo<? extends Expression> info()

Description copied from class: Node

Normally, you want to use one of the static create methods to implement this.

For QueryPlans, it is very important that the properties contain all of the expressions and references relevant to this node, and that all the properties are used in the provided constructor; otherwise query plan transformations like QueryPlan#transformExpressionsOnly(Function) will not have an effect.

Specified by:

info in class Node<Expression>

toEvaluator

public ExpressionEvaluator.Factory toEvaluator(EvaluatorMapper.ToEvaluator toEvaluator)

Description copied from interface: EvaluatorMapper

Convert this into an ExpressionEvaluator.

Note for implementors: If you are implementing this function, you should call the passed-in lambda on your children, after doing any other manipulation (casting, etc.) necessary.

Note for Callers: If you are attempting to call this method, and you have an Expression and a Layout, you likely want to call EvalMapper.toEvaluator(org.elasticsearch.xpack.esql.core.expression.FoldContext, org.elasticsearch.xpack.esql.core.expression.Expression, org.elasticsearch.xpack.esql.planner.Layout) instead. On the other hand, if you already have something that looks like the parameter for this method, you should call this method with that function.

Build an ExpressionEvaluator.Factory for the tree of expressions rooted at this node. This is only guaranteed to return a sensible evaluator if this node has a valid type. If this node is a subclass of Expression then "valid type" means that Expression.typeResolved() returns a non-error resolution. If Expression.typeResolved() returns an error then this method may throw. Or return an evaluator that produces garbage. Or return an evaluator that throws when run.
