Unlocked elasticsearch/elasticsearch version

[kkomelin]

... so that the package supported versions of elasticsearch/elasticsearch higher than 5.0.0.

I have a conflict with https://github.com/ErickTamayo/laravel-scout-elastic which uses higher version.

Thanks @kkomelin but I have a question.
why you want to install ErickTamayo/laravel-scout-elastic with basemkhirat/elasticsearch as you can use basemkhirat/elasticsearch as a laravel scout driver.

Thank you @basemkhirat for reviewing and merging my PR.

why you want to install ErickTamayo/laravel-scout-elastic with basemkhirat/elasticsearch as you can use basemkhirat/elasticsearch as a laravel scout driver.

Mostly because of this PR ErickTamayo/laravel-scout-elastic#40 which I believe will soon be included in ErickTamayo/laravel-scout-elastic.
The main feature I need for my project is a possibility to create custom mappings for my index types/models, and the PR adds a console command for that.

On the other hand, the search flexibility of your package makes a difference and I would use it for custom search. I'm now working on a distance condition for geo points. Would you accept a PR for that?

[basemkhirat]

sure @kkomelin you are welcome for any contributions like that or any contribution that adds a new a new feature has a value.

hello @kkomelin,

I took the idea of managing indices using laravel artisan command from thomasjsn/laravel-scout-elastic and add some features such as creating aliases for indices, drop indices and data reindexing command.

see readme.

Hoping to give it a try.

Thanks

Hi @basemkhirat,
Thank you for making the improvements.
Index aliases is an especially good idea.
