Hi, I googled & searched the documentation, but I didn't find any example code where the new reindex API is used from Java. Is there a way? Is anyone using it in Java and could post some example code? Thanks! ---

[This](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/2.x/modules/reindex/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/index/reindex/ReindexTestCase.java) shows how to build the requests. Just make sure that you've configured the `reindex` module as a dependency and added it when creating the client. Sorry about this. It is super convenient that \_reindex is a module instead of directly in Elasticsearch's core for everyone _except_ folks who want to use it from the java api. ---
