Another command-line interface for the Elasticsearch _cat API.
Inspired by the deprecated es2unix. The alternative copycat seems like a better solution than this, but it interacts poorly with my environment variables for some reason. Also, for some reason I wanted to explore the intricacies of python argparse.
The name seemed like a good idea at the time, at least until I first used the command. Oh well, too late now...
Try other solutions first. They probably work better.
- python3
- Eh, I like type hinting for documentation clarity...
- Requires elasticsearch-py
- Should not require it, but I used it because I had it
- Changes to _cat API will break this
- At some point I might come back and change this...
