Deprecation of mapping types doc vs _doc

In the last merge the mapping types were deprecated in order to comply with ES 7.0

I am a bit confused between “doc” and “_doc”, I think ES-dsl-py is using “doc” as the default index type (and you cannot change it anymore)

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/removal-of-types.html#_schedule_for_removal_of_mapping_types

Indices created in 6.x only allow a single-type per index. Any name can be used for the type, but there can be only one. The preferred type name is _doc, so that index APIs have the same path as they will have in 7.0: PUT {index}/_doc/{id} and POST {index}/_doc

Does this mean that the documents created with ES dsl py will have not work with the ES7 POST {index}/_doc ?

I tried using elasticseach-dsl for the first time and got errors caused by ES 7.0 incompatibility (my server is 7.0 already). Both attempt to create mapping, and attempt to search fail. Are fixes made here released?

I need a way to change ‘doc’ to ‘_doc’ … it seems to be static

body['doc'] = {

@littlehome-eugene Have you figured out a way to do so? I have the same problem
