Rest endpoint to show which plugins and rivers are installed

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Just wondering if there is a rest interface for finding out which plugins
and rivers are installed? It could be useful for elasticsearch-head for
example

Hi Ben,

Just opened a pull request:

https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch/commit/69ea1d1a4a78a1f99391028181de84c966b5f514

It works like this:

curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/_plugins'
{
"ok" : true,
"plugins" : {
"analysis-combo" : "Analyser that can multiplex multiple terms from
different analyzers",
"skywalker" : "Skywalker - Luke for Elasticsearch",
"oai-river" : "OAI River Plugin",
"analysis-icu" : "UTF related ICU analysis support"
}
}

When plugin authors provide feature lists in the plugin descriptions, they
could be interpreted by other plugins.

Rivers are defined in the _river index, so they can be queried like
any other index:

http://localhost:9200/_river/_search?q=*
