-----------------------------------------

             Summary: ElasticSearchDataContext throws NPE when index is not 
found
                 Key: METAMODEL-106
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METAMODEL-106
             Project: Apache MetaModel
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 4.3.0-incubating
            Reporter: Kasper Sørensen


If I accidentally use a wrong index name when creating an 
ElasticSearchDataContext, I get an exception like this:

{code}
java.lang.NullPointerException
        at 
org.apache.metamodel.elasticsearch.ElasticSearchDataContext.detectSchema(ElasticSearchDataContext.java:161)
        at 
org.apache.metamodel.elasticsearch.ElasticSearchDataContext.<init>(ElasticSearchDataContext.java:122)
{code}

I would expect a more meaningful exception - either IllegalArgumentException or 
a MetaModelException - with a proper explanation as a message.

We should also have sensible checks for null values and empty strings etc.
