Yea when trying to run webpack to bundle this up I'm getting an error ERROR in ./~/http-aws-es/connector.js Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'elasticsearch/src/lib/utils'

npm install elasticsearch --save

It may be good to add elasticsearch as a peer dependency.

Has anyone found a fix for this? We are currently experiencing this problem when we run the Lambda in AWS, but it works fine locally. Versions we are using are;

"elasticsearch": "^13.0.1",
"http-aws-es": "^1.1.3",

This is killing the usability of this module entirely.

I had this issue, as I was 'inadvertently' ignoring **/package.json files (d'oh!), in my gulpfile.

Does your zipped file contain a ./node_modules/elasticsearch/package.json ?
(explains why my stuff was working locally too, as my IDE was finding the package.json locally)

FYI - I believe lambda defaults to index.js, if it doesn't find a package.json
In the elasticsearch/package.json, you have the following line
"main": "src/elasticsearch.js"
