Hi all!

Can i get via API info about indicies but like pattern (index1\*,index2\*)?  
I get info by API "GET /\_cat/indices?h=index,store.size&bytes=kb&format=json"  
and result like:

```auto
[
  {
"index" : "index1-2020.12.16",
"store.size" : "130"
  },
  {
"index" : "index2-2020.07.27",
"store.size" : "370"
  },
  {
"index" : "index1-2020.07.28",
"store.size" : "100"
  },
  {
"index" : "index2-2020.07.29",
"store.size" : "350"
  }
]

```

but i want get this result:

```auto
[
  {
"index" : "index1-*",
"store.size" : "230"
  },
  {
"index" : "index2-*",
"store.size" : "720"
  }
]

```

This is possible?
