question: Is custom index aliasing and searching possible?

[ykurtbas]

Hi, I am thinking of using this library for my ES integration.

I am going to cluster my indexes as posts-{region} to scope them and search within those scopes.

ie

posts-americas -> would host and be searchable for Americas region
posts-europe -> similary just for europe posts

and then I could delete the whole index to get rid of sort of a dynamic region.

Looking at the documentation I see this

 # You should configure each index which you maintain in Elasticsearch here.
  # This configuration will be read by the `mix elasticsearch.build` task,
  # described below.
  indexes: %{
    # This is the base name of the Elasticsearch index. Each index will be
    # built with a timestamp included in the name, like "posts-5902341238".
    # It will then be aliased to "posts" for easy querying.
    posts: %{

First: is this possible from the usage of this library or would I have to modify the task itself?

Second: Would the following return an %MyApp.Post{} struct or a raw ES response with the meta-information about the results too?

Elasticsearch.post(MyApp.ElasticsearchCluster, "/posts-americas/_doc/_search", '{"query": {"match_all": {}}}')

Thank you in advance for the library!
