@fewstera Thank you for posting this. Will test it out.

@fewstera A question. You have a list of whitelisted function names that you wrap in awsCredsifyAll. How would you keep them always in sync with any new ES release?

@mohitkhanna those whitelisted keys come from the first level of this object: https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-js/blob/master/api/index.js#L18. So they could easily be updated using a script, but there is no automatic setup in place to currently do this.

I don't see them changing often, but I will check them occasionally to ensure they don't go out of sync. If a whitelisted key is missed, the client will continue to work, just the AWS credentials will not be refreshed by that method call.

Thank you Aiden. I will be trying the library out tonight.

Figured it out.
AWSHTTPRequest uses path to send query parameters and there is no key as "querystring" here in docs.
So a small change in aws_es_connector.js solves the problem.
In createRequest() before sending the req object
req.path+='/?'+req.querystring; delete req.querystring;
Now all parameters will work fine.

cool .thanks saved my day

Thank you @parthdesai93! Was very helpful

Hey. I find I spot an issue.
Look at this:
`

const x = 'ߤߤߤߤ';
x.length
4
w = Buffer.from(x)

> w.byteLength 8 `

Content-Length is provided in bytes. So the header is going to have invalid value - 4 bytes instead of 8.
