'How to write comments in Kibana console?

Can you provide me with a hint how to comment out lines in Kibana Dev Tools console? I am interested in comment syntax.



Solution 1:[1]

You can comment out one line at a time by using #. For instance:

# This is a search command
GET /_search
{
  "query": {
    "match_all": {}
  }
}

Solution 2:[2]

If you were to comment out a line or lines, you could add /* */, for example, /* "field": "statType.keyword" */

GET /exercise-index/_search
{ 
  "_source": {
    "includes": ["content"]
  }, 
  "query": {
    "exists": {"field": "inclination"}
  },
  "aggs": {
    "location": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "location"
        /* "size": 10 */
      }
    }
  }
}

at the query above, we commented out a line in agg with /* */.

PS:

  1. The syntax check will fail after you add /* */ on a line, but it does not affect the query.
  2. After add /* */, you need to remove comma at the line before to meet the json syntax.
