Hello,

I can't seem to find a single ES Stats API (HTTP) that returns:

- a list of all nodes in the cluster
- for each node, a list of indices (shards|replicas)
- for each shard|replica, its state (open|closed)

And NodeStat class and NodeIndicesStats also don't seem to have everything  
from the above either (no list of index names and open|closed state)...

What's the most elegant way to get to this info?

## Thanks, Otis
