You can download it with pip:

pip install elasticsearch-loader

And then you will be able to load csv files into elasticsearch by issuing:

elasticsearch_loader --index incidents --type incident csv file1.csv

Additionally, you can use custom id file by adding --id-field=document_id to the command line
