I'm unable to create a client like this :-

```
Client client = TransportClient.builder().addPlugin(ReindexPlugin.class)
    .build().addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(
        InetAddress.getByName("127.0.0.1"), 9300));

```

.builder() method is unavailable, went to github to realize that the entire builder class and builder method are not there in TransportClient.class after 2.4 -\> 5.0  
Any new way to addPlugin in my cliient?

Commit in question :-

I'd start from here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-api/current/transport-client.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-api/current/transport-client.html)
