New client is coming to town

[delvedor]

Hello! Thank you for keeping up this work!

We are working on a new JavaScript client for Elasticsearch, and you can find the work in elastic/elasticsearch-js#next, the new client will replace the current one, which will be deprecated.
The code has been rewritten from scratch, so your current implementation will not be compatible.

Please let me know if you have any question :)

😭 @delvedor do you know alternatives?

[dougmoscrop]

just switch to it?

Is there any update on when this package will move to the new ES client implementation?

So, I made a fork and took care of this. https://github.com/compwright/aws-elasticsearch-connector

We've released an NPM package that works with @elastic/eleasticsearch and AWS elasticsearch clusters. It signs the requests for AWS and refreshes the credentials when they're about to expire.
