How to create transport client in Scala for Elasticsearch 5.1.1 version?

I try to create class extends on abstract class TransportClient named PreBuiltTransportClient (like in docs).

`class PreBuiltTransportClient(settings: Settings) extends TransportClient(settings, new util.ArrayList[Class[_ <: Plugin]])`

But Idea tell me that it can't resolve constructor.

If i try this:

`class PreBuiltTransportClient(settings: Settings) extends TransportClient(settings, List().asJava)`

I catch an exception with null type

Can't you use the provided `PreBuiltTransportClient` class directly?  
It's provided in this artifact:

```auto
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>transport</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.1</version>
</dependency>

```
