Index Templates

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

At www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-templates.html it states that "Index templates can also be placed within the config location (path.conf) under the templates directory (note, make sure to place them on all master eligible nodes). For example, a file called template_1.json can be placed under config/templates..."

I do not see a config/templates directory. Do i need to create it somewhere? I'm using elasticsearch 1.0.1-1.

Thanks

Yes. This dir does not exist. You need to create it yourself.
It should be readable by the user who run elasticsearch.

While it is possible to have a templates directory, it is not advisable to
use it in a production environment. You would have to keep the contents of
that directory synchronized between all of your nodes, otherwise you run
the risk of inconsistencies.
It is recommended, instead, to use the API to upload templates and update
them that way, as needed.

I added the template file to each node and restarted elasticsearch on each node but do not see the template when i issue "curl -XGET localhost:9200/_template/?pretty".

If i use the API, are the changes persistent over reboots?
