Hi guys,

I am developing a driver with Python Pyes client for Elasticsearch. I need mapping indexes with a date column has format No "date\_hour\_minute\_second" based on docs [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/date-format/](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/date-format/) also I check pyes docs [https://pyes.readthedocs.org/en/latest/guide/reference/mapping/date-format.html](https://pyes.readthedocs.org/en/latest/guide/reference/mapping/date-format.html)

When I use "date\_hour\_minute\_second" format for my field I got the exception mentioned in title.

I could not figure it out why it throws an exception like that even docs say it is supported.

Any help appreciated.

Kind regards.
