Implement Alias Initialization #13

Closed rosibaj closed 4 years ago

rosibaj commented 4 years ago

Rollcall updates indices linked to an Alias, but if an alias does not already exists Rollcall cannot interact with it.

We want to modify Rollcall to be able to initialize aliases.

[ ] Modify the "release" feature to create an alias if it doesn't exist
[ ] Input of alias name is required

Looks like rollcall does add aliases to elasticsearch if they don't exist. The release request accepts an alias name as well. A thing to note here though, the aliases that rollcall expects is configured via env variables. Not sure if this is what we wanted to change.

@jaserud I think we thought it did not create the aliases, so great news. @hlminh2000, any issues with env configuring the aliases? I assume so as we want it per program?
