elasticsearch-tools
A collection of elasticsearch command line tools for doing things like bulk importing/exporting and exporting/importing mappings.
It was created because some of the existing import/export tools ran too slow on my machine. Using the new bulk API seemed to speed things up dramatically. The other tools I used also weren't exporting _parent and _routing fields.
Installation
npm install -g elasticsearch-tools
After installing, you will have access to the following command line tools:

Running tests
Unit tests can be ran via:
npm run test
The integration tests hit an elasticsearch server at: localhost:20202
. To
start the server, you can install docker, then run:
docker-compose up
One the server is running, you can run the integration tests via:
npm run test:integration
