I've read the document of elasticsearch-php but didn't find any API for updating existing document. Is there any PHP api corresponding to docs-update[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-update.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-update.html) ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
