unexpected keyword argument 'fields' with -f option about es2csv

Hello

What version do you use?
Probably looks like that there is issue with elasticsearch.py library.

I too am having same issue,

Just tried a fresh pip install on ubuntu 16.04, same issue. Tried field args as space delimnited, also tried as ['var1','var2']

Thanks, @rdica.

Issue in this:

Downloading elasticsearch-5.0.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl

They have broken API again: 2.3.0 has fields arg and 5.0.0 has not. It was renamed.
Hot fix is to downgrade to version 2.3.0. I am going to bring proper version dependency in future.

Thanks, that works...I pip unistalled es5 and installed 2.3.0...I noticed that the order of fields given is resorted alphabetically in the CSV file, is that intended behaviour? thanks again

Thanks. Here's the provisioning bash I'm using to implement the fix described in this thread. I happen to be using ES 2.3 in my environment, as reflected below. I'm going to close this issue, as I assume (improved) compatibility with Python ES 5.0 is broader in scope.

apt-get install -y -python-pip git
pip install git+https://github.com/taraslayshchuk/es2csv.git
pip uninstall -y elasticsearch
pip install elasticsearch==2.3

[taraslayshchuk]

@rdica, Yes, it is sorted.
@bartclarkson, not sure about a migration process to ES 5.0 at the moment, I am planning to hardcore dependency elasticsearch-2.*.
