Hi,
I want to know if it's possible to disable the "\_index", "\_type", "\_id" and
"\_score" fields in the output list when performing a search query.
Example:
"hits": [
{
"\_index": "eventlist\_2014\_10",
"\_type": "eventlist",
"\_id": "lcJu1j5Jvyh9ywJHsPplXA\_300343y7a0ktK4iXjeccFse\_EDPw\_2",
"\_score": 1,
"fields": {
.....
Those fields add a dramatic overhead to my result list, so I'd really like
to disable them.
Thanks in advance,
Lasse

Are you using REST? If so, Jorg wrote a plugin to help with such a task:

Cool! I'll definitely take a look.
@ Elasticsearch Core team - you should consider adding this as a feature.
