Invalid Json error when creating Elasticsearch index with elastic4s in play framework

Question

I'm trying to create an index as shown before but I always get this error: Bad request For request 'POST /initIndex' [Invalid Json]

I'm using elastic4s with play Framework 2.3.x and scala 2.11.

import com.sksamuel.elastic4s.{ElasticClient, ElasticsearchClientUri, FrenchLanguageAnalyzer}
import com.sksamuel.elastic4s.ElasticDsl._
import com.sksamuel.elastic4s.mappings.FieldType._
import models.tools.Tool
import org.elasticsearch.action.get.GetResponse
import org.elasticsearch.action.search.SearchResponse

import scala.concurrent.Future

object ToolsDaoImpl {

  private val uri: ElasticsearchClientUri = ElasticsearchClientUri("elasticsearch://localhost:9200")
  private val client = ElasticClient.remote(uri)    

  def createIndex {
    client execute {
      create index name mappings (
        "tool" as (
            "id" typed IntegerType,
            "title" typed StringType analyzer FrenchLanguageAnalyzer,
            "description" typed StringType analyzer FrenchLanguageAnalyzer
          )
        )
    }
  }

  def findById(toolId: Long): Future[GetResponse] = client.execute {
    get id toolId from "tools/tool"
  }

  def findByName(name: String): Future[SearchResponse] = client.execute {
    search in "tools/tool" query name
  }

  def initIndex {
    client.execute {
      index into "tools/tool" doc Tool(id = 1L, title = "Marteau", description = "Peut être utilisé pour differents travaux")
      index into "tools/tool" doc Tool(id = 1L, title = "Perceuse", description = "Placoplatre et béton")
    }
  }

}

case class Tool(id: Long, title: String, city: String, description: String) extends DocumentMap {
  override def map: Map[String, Any] = Map("id" -> id, "title" -> title, "description" -> description)
}

And it is invoked directly from the controller. Nothing else

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I tried this code on a simple scala app (a main) and it works. What could ne thé reason ?

Can you paste your routes and action you use to call this method? I copied/pasted the code above and in my local it creates the tools index with the appropriate mapping. — Barry, Jan 20 '15 at 15:03
I was using a POST to the createIndex, I changed it to a GET and it worked... Any idea? — Marouane Gazanayi, Jan 20 '15 at 21:06

Since the code above was not the issue I imagine this is with your Reads or JSON you are sending in - please provide more details about the model you are expecting, and the Reads

It may be that your example is incomplete, but from the code above you have two open curly braces and one one close curly brace.
