Hello! I'm new to the camel forums. First off, thank you to all the contributors. Camel is a wonderful framework.
While doing some work recently I came across an issue with the elasticsearch component. Specifically, I need to be able to send a bulk request where the documents in the bulk request have application-provided (not automatically-generated, as is what happens by default with the elasticsearch-java client) document ids. I see that the INDEX operation supports an index header as of version 2.15.0 (which is yet to be released). However, this still wouldn't satisfy my need, as I want to send bulk updates, not individual index requests for speed/efficiency. So, I've temporarily forked the elasticsearch component and added support for my use case and others. To do this, My question is whether this is a suitable change to the component. If so, I'll attempt to create a ticket in the issue tracker and a pull request for the changes I've made after I'm done finalizing them (I haven't read through the contribution guide yet, i'm sure I need tests, doc, coding standards, etc.). Additionally, is it common for components to provide other helper classes, like AggregationStrategies? I've written an aggregation strategy that will collect individual IndexRequests into a BulkRequest so that the change I've made in the Elasticsearch component can support my needs. This is easily reproducible by others and follows after the ArrayListAggregationStrategy example in the camel guide, but I think the use case would be common so it may be good to include with the patch as well. Thank you!
