elasticgeo doesn't support Elasticsearch index aliases #45

Using Geoserver 2.9.1 and Elasticsearch 2.4.1 Attempting to create a new store using an Elasticsearch index alias name. Geoserver successfully allows the creation of the store, but no layers are presented in the "Publish" screen. Works as expected when the actual index name is used. However, this precludes the ability to publish time-based indexes that are aliased to a single name, i.e. Elasticsearch indexes named "data_week_1", "data_week_2", "data_week_3" are aliased to "data"

As a workaround try using the search_indices store parameter. Use one of the indices (e.g. "data_week_1") for index_name and the pattern (e.g. "data_week*") for the search_indices parameter.

Added support for index aliases (see 2.11.2-RC1 release) so the above workaround shouldn't be necessary. Just use your alias ("data_week") for the index name.

This should be resolved now as described above. Please reopen if there's still an issue.
