Hi,

with the new release of alpha4 I was eager to test the new RestClient. Unfortunatly I aint get it working, there is no such class in the dependency, even the needed apache dependencies are misssing.

Did anyone get RestClient working with alpha4? If so, could you provide a short example? I tried the unit tests from elasticsearch, they don't even compile ☹

Thanks,  
Andrej

Same problem here. Can't find the RestClient in 5.0.0-alpha4

Do I need a special dependency?

There might be [an issue](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/19205) in the release.

We are looking at this ATM.
