_version linked to document's field

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

Is it to possible to link "_version" special property to document's field
the same way as "_id" or "_timestamp" properties?
I tried to declare mapping this way:

"_id": {
"path": "product_id",
},
_version: {

  • "path": "lock_version",*
    "version_type": "external"
    },

However "_version" is not updated to "lock_version" value when document is
added or updated.
Documents which are submitted to ES in my system already contain
"lock_version" field. That is primarily
used for optimistic locking in external database system, however ES could
use it as well.

Thanks,
Piotr

Hi,
I am curious about the same thing. Is this possible?
I am on ES 1.0.2, and my experiments show; No.
Seem's like it should be doable though?
Thanks,
