ClasscastException when using SearchTemplateRequestBuilder from within a plugin

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I have written an action plugin in which I need to call a search template.

The code is quite straightforward:

SearchResponse sr = new SearchTemplateRequestBuilder(client)
        .setScript("myTemplate")                       
        .setScriptType(ScriptType.STORED)     
        .setScriptParams(template_params)                   
        .setRequest(new SearchRequest("myIndex").types("myType")                    
        .get()                                              
        .getResponse();

I can install the plugin, however when running this code (from within a class extending BaseRestHandler),
I get the following exception:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.elasticsearch.script.mustache.SearchTemplateRequest cannot be cast to org.elasticsearch.script.mustache.SearchTemplateRequest

I have the following dependency in the classpath: org.codelibs.elasticsearch.module:lang-mustache:5.6.7. The same happens if I use org.elasticsearch.plugin:lang-mustache-client instead. I'm puzzled at which dependency to pick by the way!

If I declare the dependency as provided, I get a ClassNotFoundException.

I'm pretty stuck at this point...

Any help in solving this would be greatly appreciated!
