1. We have many Lookup-indexes and one enrich pipeline to decode some values.
2. Data will be imported from a DB using logstash and a pipeline parameter within elasticsearch plugin.

output {  
elasticsearch {  
index =\> "customers"  
pipeline =\> "countries\_lookup"  
... }  
}

The question is: how can I update and reindex document using the same enrich pipeline? For example: I have a country ISO code within my document:  
{  
"countrycode":"US"  
}  
The pipeline adds a decoded nested object with a value for the country code:  
{  
"countrycode":"CH",  
"countryname" : {  
"code" : "CH",  
"name" : "Schweiz"  
}  
}  
Assume I want to update the document, change the country code, get new values from a lookup and reindex the document. How can I do that? is it possible to do it using logstash with input/http and output/elasticsearch plugins giving the same pipeline as a parameter? The "\_update" feature from elasticsearch unfortunately has no "pipeline" parameter to make it easier.
