Parsing Query DSL outside of a SearchSource

OpenSearch
1

Hey folks, I’m building software that needs to be able to parse search and timeseries requests from Kibana. I started out by taking a dependency on org.opensearch:opensearch:2.1.0 so I could play tricks like this:

    fun parseSearchSource(body: ObjectNode): SearchSourceBuilder {
        val xp = XContentType.JSON.xContent()
            .createParser(OpenSearchPluginRegistry.registry, DeprecationHandler.IGNORE_DEPRECATIONS, body.toString())

        return SearchSourceBuilder.fromXContent(xp)
    }

But now I’d like to be able to parse requests from future versions of Elasticsearch as well, specifically one that includes runtime_mappings, which I know isn’t supported in OS. I don’t mind hand-writing Jackson codecs for most of these outer data types, but the Query DSL (i.e. the query field in a SearchSource) specifically is a bear to parse, so if I can get away with it, I’d like to assume it’s changing less frequently, and continue to use OpenSearch’s hand-written parser to handle the Query DSL, but at the moment I’m having trouble isolating that functionality in a useful way.

The code that parses a QueryBuilder from a StreamInput seems simple enough but that appears to only work with Transport data, and I need to parse from JSON.

Any tips? Thanks!

lol, literally single-digit minutes after posting this, I found AbstractQueryBuilder#parseInnerQueryBuilder(XContentParser parser) which looks like it should do the trick, I’ll give it a try and report back
