Here's the reason for this change 🚀

I'd like Pelias to run on elasticsearch 8 some day. This is a step towards that.

Pelias does not support es6. Mapping types were first deprecated in es6 and optional with es7, but are now breaking with my es8 tests.


Here's what actually got changed 👏

I removed typeName from the default config.

In es6 it was recommended to be "_doc".
In es7 it was optional, but if specified it was required to be "_doc".
In es8 it's not allowed at all.

Here's how others can test the changes 👀

I ran the existing tests and have successfully utilized this in the context of pelias/schema#490

In es6 it was recommended to be "_doc".
In es7 it was required to be "_doc".
In es8 it's not allowed at all.

Thanks for the PR, this officially drops support for elasticsearch v6 so that v8 can now be supported.

The king is dead, long live the king!
