We are currently trying to use neo4j-to-elasticsearch in our production environment. Sometimes, we update mapping.json during release to add new indices or to add/modify fields of existing indices. Whenever we do, we need to do a full restart of the Neo4j server in order for these changes to be loaded which causes downtime for realtime users.
Question
Is there a way to reload mapping.json without a full server restart?
If not, consider this as a feature request for such functionality. My suggestion would be to expose a method within neo4j that can trigger a mapping.json reload (something like graphaware.neo4j2es.reload()?)
