Variable [state] is not defined

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi Guys,

I was playing with elastic search "Scripted Metric Aggregation", I get the error like this

{

"error": {
"root_cause": [
{
"type": "script_exception",
"reason": "compile error",
"script_stack": [
"state.transactions = ",
"^---- HERE"
],
"script": "state.transactions = ",
"lang": "painless"
}
],
"type": "search_phase_execution_exception",
"reason": "all shards failed",
"phase": "query",
"grouped": true,
"failed_shards": [
{
"shard": 0,
"index": "transactions",
"node": "O3HVsMQ3Tsamd_rc9ECGUA",
"reason": {
"type": "script_exception",
"reason": "compile error",
"script_stack": [
"state.transactions = ",
"^---- HERE"
],
"script": "state.transactions = ",
"lang": "painless",
"caused_by": {
"type": "illegal_argument_exception",
"reason": "Variable [state] is not defined."
}
}
}
]
},
"status": 500
}

I was using the code in the ElasticSearch 6.4 document. Here is the link

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.4/search-aggregations-metrics-scripted-metric-aggregation.html

POST ledger/_search?size=0

{
"query" : {
"match_all" : {}
},
"aggs": {
"profit": {
"scripted_metric": {
"init_script" : "state.transactions = ",
"map_script" : "state.transactions.add(doc.type.value == 'sale' ? doc.amount.value : -1 * doc.amount.value)",
"combine_script" : "double profit = 0; for (t in state.transactions) { profit += t } return profit",
"reduce_script" : "double profit = 0; for (a in states) { profit += a } return profit"
}
}
}
}

Can you please point out what is wrong? Do I have to declare them in the "params"?

What version of elasticsearch are you on? state was added in 6.4, that is why it is in the docs there, but not in 6.3 and earlier.

My fault. I though I was using 6.4, but I am using 6.3. Thanks
