Is it a good idea to add mapping of a doctype before saving it?

See original GitHub issue

Is it a good idea to add mapping of a doctype before saving it? Because if it is I don’t see why we should be using .init() method before saving a Doctype object. In this case my suggestion is to add an automatic .init() before saving it in the DocType class like the following ideally in line 405 of elasticsearch_dsl/document.py

self.init(using=using, index=index)

@HonzaKral what do you think about it?

Hi @WisdomPill, currently there is no direct support for index templates, but it shouldn’t be too hard (famous last words) and it makes perfect sense as the next addition.

In the meantime you can do it semi manually by taking the output of Index.to_dict() and storing it as a template by using the indices.put_template method of elasticsearch-py
