Is there a simple way to get the mapping per index through java api?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

We're in need of a simple interface where admins can see/modify and
set again the mappings for the indices.

Getting the mappings can be done through client.admin().cluster(). But
seems a bit convoluted to just get all the mappings in json format
through this way.

Can this be done easily? am I looking at the wrong place?

Cheers

The rest endpoint for get mapping uses the cluster state API (with some
filters), here is the code:

.
