GASRetry - Exponential backoff JavaScript implementation for Google Apps Script (Library project key: "MGJu3PS2ZYnANtJ9kyn2vnlLDhaBgl_dE")
/**
* Invokes a function, performing up to 5 retries with exponential backoff.
* Retries with delays of approximately 1, 2, 4, 8 then 16 seconds for a total of
* about 32 seconds before it gives up and rethrows the last error.
* See: https://developers.google.com/google-apps/documents-list/#implementing_exponential_backoff
<h3>Examples:</h3>
<pre>//Calls an anonymous function that concatenates a greeting with the current Apps user's email
var example1 = GASRetry.call(function(){return "Hello, " + Session.getActiveUser().getEmail();});
</pre><pre>//Calls an existing function
var example2 = GASRetry.call(myFunction);

<!-- Regexp to recognize fake trafic from JS enabled crawlers
For use in Google Analytics **Filters** on the "ISP Organization" field, corresponding dimension in reporting is "Service Provider"
This lists fits within the 255 characters limit (!doesn't any more, to be optimized) of the filter field if you want to have a Profile/View that will include only that traffic
Most crawlers have Java disabled
You can also disable logging the activity of web monitoring services through a test on user-agent string, see https://gist.github.com/googleanalyticsresoneo/964266

ElasticSearch dynamic default mapping for nested objects

First start ES with /etc/elasticsearch/default-mapping.json, then index several documents with inner objects

curl -XPOST -d '{"key":{"subkey1":1, "subkey2":1}}' localhost:9200/toto/toto/1
curl -XPOST -d '{"key2":{"subkey1":1, "subkey2":1}}' localhost:9200/toto/toto/2
curl -XPOST -d '{"key3":{"subkey1":1, "subkey2":1}}' localhost:9200/toto/toto/3

Finally, launch the query
