I have defined the following index mapping for one of the documents:
{
"favorites":{
"_parent":{
"type":"activities"
},
"properties":{
"favorite_count":{
"type":"integer"
},
"details":{
"type":"integer",
"store":"yes"
}
}
}
}
When I try to index the following document :
{
"favorite_count":3,
"details":[
1, 25, 4
]
}
I get the following exception :
org.elasticsearch.index.mapper.MapperParsingException: object mapping [details] trying to serialize a value with no field associated with it, current value [1]

From this link http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/array-type/ , I believe there is no problem with the index mapping. What am I doing wrong?

The issue is resolved. I was giving the index type name wrong in the rest api url, it should have been 'localhost:9200/test-app/favorites/_mapping';, I was giving it as localhost:9200/test-app/ratings/_mapping.

When you have a parent/child relationship, you need to specify the parent when indexing a child document. See the Elasticsearch docs here: http://www.elasticsearch.org/blog/managing-relations-inside-elasticsearch/ You didn't say how you were indexing these; via curl it should look like this, where activity-id
is the id of the parent document of this favorite:
curl -XPOST localhost:9200/favorites?parent=activity-id -d'
{
"favorite_count":3,
"details":[
1, 25, 4
]
}'
