Curator: Curator does not support Elasticsearch 6.0.0-beta1

[algestam]

When running the latest version of curator (5.1.2) against an Elasticsearch instance running 6.0.0-beta1, the following error is produced:

This is a known issue. It will be a bit before I'm able to get a 6.0 beta out for Curator.

[algestam]

Ok, thanks for the info 👍

Any update on this?

[untergeek]

No. I'm kind of dependent on at least a pre-release of the 6.0 python client before I can alter the current code to work with ES 6.

@untergeek, would you expect curator 6.0 to be available with elasticsearch 6.0 GA release?

[untergeek]

Actually, I've made Curator 5.4 completely compatible with 6.0.0-rc2, and it will be out shortly.

This is resolved now, with the release of Curator 5.4.0
