Class ScriptContext<FactoryType>

java.lang.Object

org.elasticsearch.script.ScriptContext<FactoryType>

public final class ScriptContext<FactoryType>
extends java.lang.Object

The information necessary to compile and run a script. A ScriptContext contains the information related to a single use case and the interfaces and methods necessary for a ScriptEngine to implement.

There are at least two (and optionally a third) related classes which must be defined.

The InstanceType is a class which users of the script api call to execute a script. It may be stateful. Instances of the InstanceType may be executed multiple times by a caller with different arguments. This class must have an abstract method named execute which ScriptEngine implementations will define.

The FactoryType is a factory class returned by the ScriptService when compiling a script. This class must be stateless so it is cacheable by the ScriptService. It must have one of the following:

• An abstract method named newInstance which returns an instance of InstanceType
• An abstract method named newFactory which returns an instance of StatefulFactoryType

The StatefulFactoryType is an optional class which allows a stateful factory from the stateless factory type required by the ScriptService. If defined, the StatefulFactoryType must have a method named newInstance which returns an instance of InstanceType.

Both the FactoryType and StatefulFactoryType may have abstract methods to indicate whether a variable is used in a script. These method should return a boolean and their name should start with needs, followed by the variable name, with the first letter uppercased. For example, to check if a variable doc is used, a method boolean needsDoc() should be added. If the variable name starts with an underscore, for example, _score, the needs method would be boolean needs_score().
