Description

Describe the bug The backend package works with elasticsearch up to v6.8. With v7.x it causes the following error:

ResponseError: illegal_argument_exception
    at onBody (/cube/node_modules/@elastic/elasticsearch/lib/Transport.js:337:23)
    at IncomingMessage.onEnd (/cube/node_modules/@elastic/elasticsearch/lib/Transport.js:264:11)
    at IncomingMessage.emit (events.js:326:22)
    at endReadableNT (_stream_readable.js:1241:12)
    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:84:21)

I've tested this behaviour both with elastic.io and a local vanilla elasticsearch v7.15 image. On the other hand, the library works correctly with elasticsearch v.6.8.18

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  • Deploy elasticsearch v7.15 using docker.
  • Try to connect cube.js by following the instructions on the wiki
  • Open the cube.js schema and see the error.

Expected behavior The lib should work with the latest version of elasticsearch

Research direction
Investigate the cubejs elasticsearch driver source code, likely under packages/cubejs elasticsearch driver. The error indicates an illegal argument exception, likely due to removed fields or changed mapping in Elasticsearch v7. Compare the current driver's ES client calls against v7 documentation. The issue comments may contain additional context. Focus on updating query format to be compatible with v7.
