We´re working on it right now. No tests available for now, but seems to be working!

You have to add "writeback_index_fmt" to your config with something similar to "%d-%m-%Y" (see patterns available here : http://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/time_strftime.htm )

that's great! Thanks.
The only thing to note is that it will not rotate the indices based on a pattern you add unless you restart elastalert. Currently doing it with a cron job...

Yes, you´re right.
Check it again now, it will rotate indexes. Even better (check create parm) the indexes will be created before use it, so you can forget about create_index "tool"

Sorry to start this up again, but did anything come of this? I'm guessing by the fact that this is an open issue that there is still work to be done, but wanted to make sure.
