-=== Template Query
-
-deprecated[5.0.0, Use the <<search-template>> API]
-
-A query that accepts a query template and a map of key/value pairs to fill in
-template parameters. Templating is based on Mustache. For simple token substitution all you provide
-is a query containing some variable that you want to substitute and the actual
-values:
-
-[source,js]
-------------------------------------------
-GET /_search
-{
-    "query": {
-        "template": {
-            "inline": { "match": { "text": "{{query_string}}" }},
-            "params" : {
-                "query_string" : "all about search"
-            }
-        }
-    }
-}
-------------------------------------------
-// CONSOLE
-// TEST[warning:[template] query is deprecated, use search template api instead]
-
-The above request is translated into:
-
-[source,js]
-------------------------------------------
-GET /_search
-{
-    "query": {
-        "match": {
-            "text": "all about search"
-        }
-    }
-}
-------------------------------------------
-// CONSOLE
-
-Alternatively passing the template as an escaped string works as well:
-
-[source,js]
-------------------------------------------
-GET /_search
-{
-    "query": {
-        "template": {
-            "inline": "{ \"match\": { \"text\": \"{{query_string}}\" }}", <1>
-            "params" : {
-                "query_string" : "all about search"
-            }
-        }
-    }
-}
-------------------------------------------
-// CONSOLE
-// TEST[warning:[template] query is deprecated, use search template api instead]
-
-<1> New line characters (`\n`) should be escaped as `\\n` or removed,
-    and quotes (`"`) should be escaped as `\\"`.
-
-==== Stored templates
-
-You can register a template by storing it in the `config/scripts` directory, in a file using the `.mustache` extension.
-In order to execute the stored template, reference it by name in the `file`
-parameter:
-
-
-[source,js]
-------------------------------------------
-GET /_search
-{
-    "query": {
-        "template": {
-            "file": "my_template", <1>
-            "params" : {
-                "query_string" : "all about search"
-            }
-        }
-    }
-}
-------------------------------------------
-// CONSOLE
-// TEST[warning:[template] query is deprecated, use search template api instead]
-
-<1> Name of the query template in `config/scripts/`, i.e., `my_template.mustache`.
-
-Alternatively, you can register a query template in the cluster state with:
-
-[source,js]
-------------------------------------------
-PUT /_search/template/my_template
-{
-    "template": { "match": { "text": "{{query_string}}" }}
-}
-------------------------------------------
-// CONSOLE
-
-and refer to it in the `template` query with the `id` parameter:
-
-
-[source,js]
-------------------------------------------
-GET /_search
-{
-    "query": {
-        "template": {
-            "stored": "my_template", <1>
-            "params" : {
-                "query_string" : "all about search"
-            }
-        }
-    }
-}
-------------------------------------------
-// CONSOLE
-// TEST[continued]
-// TEST[warning:[template] query is deprecated, use search template api instead]
-
-<1> Name of the query template in `config/scripts/`, i.e., `my_template.mustache`.
-
-
-There is also a dedicated `template` endpoint, allows you to template an entire search request.
-Please see <<search-template>> for more details.
