CSV River Plugin for ElasticSearch

The CSV River plugin allows you to index CSV files, or more accurately columized files delimiter by any single character.

You should only use one of csv_string, csv_data, csv_uri, csv_file. The first one found in that order will be used.

In order to install the plugin, simply run: bin/plugin -install xxBedy/elasticsearch-river-csv/1.0.1. If it doesn't work, clone git repository and build plugin manually.
