Log Context

Log “Synonym set [” + resourceName + “] not found” class name is SynonymsManagementAPIService.java. We extracted the following from Elasticsearch source code for those seeking an in-depth context :

 .setPreference(Preference.LOCAL.type())
 .setTrackTotalHits(true)
 .execute(new DelegatingIndexNotFoundActionListener<>(resourceName; listener; (l; searchResponse) -> {
 final long totalSynonymRules = searchResponse.getHits().getTotalHits().value;
 if (totalSynonymRules == 0) {
 l.onFailure(new ResourceNotFoundException("Synonym set [" + resourceName + "] not found"));
 return;
 }
 final SynonymRule[] synonymRules = Arrays.stream(searchResponse.getHits().getHits())
 .map(SynonymsManagementAPIService::hitToSynonymRule)
 .toArray(SynonymRule[]::new);
