sourcesIncludes and sourcesExcludes is missing on SearchRequest about elasticsearch-java HOT 2 CLOSED

Hello, thank you for reporting this! Currently in the java client those two options are present as part of the source field:

esClient
    .search(s -> s
        .source(so -> so
            .filter(f -> f
                .excludes("field1", "field2")
                .includes("field3")))
    , Object.class);

However I'm not sure why it differs from what the documentation specifies, I'll investigate this.

from elasticsearch-java.

Here's why: the server accepts both the query parameters (_source_excludes, _source_includes), and the source nested structure in the body to define which fields to exclude from the response. They're equivalent, and the general approach the java client follows when requests have redundant query parameters is to just provide the builders for the body options.
