The `main` branch targets the next major release (8.0) and the `7.x` branch targets the next minor release. Support is still incomplete as the API code is generated from the [Elasticsearch Specification](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-specification) that is also still a work in progress.

The Elasticsearch Java client is forward compatible; meaning that the client supports communicating with greater minor versions of Elasticsearch. Elastic language clients are also backwards compatible with lesser supported minor Elasticsearch versions.

## Current status

While not complete, this library is already fairly usable. What's missing falls in two main categories, related to the [Elasticsearch specification](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-specification):
* incomplete support for some data types used in specification (e.g. unions). Until they have been implemented in the code generator, they are represented as raw `JsonValue` objects.
* incomplete support for some data types used in specification (e.g. unions). Until they have been implemented in the code generator, they are represented as raw `JsonValue` objects.
* incomplete APIs: as the API specification is still incomplete, so are their implementations in this library since their code is entirely generated from the spec.
