You need to install version `1.5.0` as stated in README file.

Following the plugin documentation: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/installation.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/installation.html)

You need to do:

```auto
bin/plugin install medcl/elasticsearch-analysis-pinyin/1.5.0

```
