Hi,

I am trying to implement completion suggester. I can only see examples using curl commands.  
Can somebody please provide Java equivalents of these -

Indexing  
curl -X PUT 'localhost:9200/music/song/1?refresh=true' -d '{  
"name" : "Nevermind",  
"suggest" : {  
"input": ["Nevermind", "Nirvana"],  
"output": "Nirvana - Nevermind",  
"payload" : { "artistId" : 2321 },  
"weight" : 34  
}  
}'

Mapping:  
curl -X PUT localhost:9200/music/song/\_mapping -d '{  
"song" : {  
"properties" : {  
"name" : { "type" : "string" },  
"suggest" : { "type" : "completion",  
"analyzer" : "simple",  
"search\_analyzer" : "simple",  
"payloads" : true  
}  
}  
}  
}'

Thanks
