Painless script. Illegal list shortcut value [value]. For try to stup field variable

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hello all,

I tried with Painless script to create a new field from another field.

I have this code

if(doc['name.keyword'].size()!=0){
      def p =/[^\/]+\/([^\/]+)/;
      def m = p.matcher(doc['name.keyword'].value);
       if (m.find()) {
        doc['test_name.keyword'].value = m.group(1);
        return m.group(1);
      }
}

If i use only the return is correct is show the correct text on the kibana but i want also to be on the _doc

The error:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal list shortcut value [value].

I'm not sure if it's completely related but it seems you should be returning something in the case that the matcher does not match as well.
