Is there a way to validate or dry run the index templates config before applying?

We plan to store index templates in Phabricator and would like to validate a diff before landing it and HTTP PUT to ES.

Dry run configs like index templates

We plan to store index templates in Phabricator and would like to validate a dif…f before landing it and HTTP PUT to ES. Without dry-run support, we would have to either hope that the new config does not break ES, or find a way to hack some local ES instance to apply the config to. A dry-run param in the HTTP PUT request should be easy to implement and would make API users' life much easier.
