Field Details

ENTRY

public static final NamedWriteableRegistry.Entry ENTRY

DEFINITION

public static final FunctionDefinition DEFINITION

LIKE_TO_CONTAINS_VERSION

public static final TransportVersion LIKE_TO_CONTAINS_VERSION

Gate for rewriting LIKE "*literal*" into Contains (see ReplaceRegexMatch). Only safe when every node in the query — including remote clusters — both knows the Contains ENTRY and implements TranslationAware on it. Older nodes either lack Contains entirely (8.19) or carry a non-TranslationAware Contains (9.3/9.4) that silently drops the _index pushdown semantics, so the rewrite must stay version-gated.

Constructor Details

Contains

public Contains(Source source,
 Expression str,
 Expression substr)

Method Details

writeTo

public void writeTo(StreamOutput out)
             throws IOException

Specified by:

writeTo in interface Writeable

Throws:

IOException

getWriteableName

public String getWriteableName()

Specified by:

getWriteableName in interface NamedWriteable

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

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.

Specified by:

toEvaluator in interface EvaluatorMapper

translatable

public TranslationAware.Translatable translatable(LucenePushdownPredicates pushdownPredicates)

Description copied from interface: TranslationAware

Can this instance be translated or not? Usually checks whether the expression arguments are actual fields that exist in Lucene. See TranslationAware.Translatable for precisely what can be signaled from this method.

Specified by:

translatable in interface TranslationAware

asQuery

public Query asQuery(LucenePushdownPredicates pushdownPredicates,
 TranslatorHandler handler)

Description copied from interface: TranslationAware

Translates the implementing expression into a Query. If during translation a child needs to be translated first, the handler needs to be used even if the child implements this interface as well. This is to ensure that the child is wrapped in a SingleValueQuery if necessary.

So use this:

Query childQuery = handler.asQuery(child);

and not this:

Query childQuery = child.asQuery(handler);

Specified by:

asQuery in interface TranslationAware

singleValueField

public Expression singleValueField()

Description copied from interface: TranslationAware.SingleValueTranslationAware

Returns the field that only supports single-value semantics.

Specified by:

singleValueField in interface TranslationAware.SingleValueTranslationAware

str

public Expression str()

substr

public Expression substr()
