# Deletes all indices with a datestamp older than "days-to-keep" for daily
# if you have hourly indices, it will delete all of those older than "hours-to-keep"
# 
# This script presumes an index is named typically, e.g. logstash-YYYY.MM.DD
# It will work with any name-YYYY.MM.DD or name-YYYY.MM.DD.HH type sequence
#
# Requires python and the following dependencies (all pip/easy_installable):
#
# pyes (python elasticsearch bindings, which might need simplejson)
# argparse (built-in in python2.7 and higher, python 2.6 and lower will have to easy_install it)
#
# TODO: Proper logging instead of just print statements, being able to configure a decent logging level.
#       Unit tests. The code is somewhat broken up into logical parts that may be tested separately.
#       Better error reporting?
#       Improve the get_index_epoch method to parse more date formats. Consider renaming (to "parse_date_to_timestamp"?)
