The tool would allow to export a Hibernate Search-generated mapping so that users may compare it to their existing Elasticsearch mapping.
Work has been initiated as part of HSEARCH-2260, but some major changes may be needed, so this will have to be part of a major release.
Work in progress available here: https://github.com/yrodiere/hibernate-search/tree/HSEARCH-2260-clitool
The main issue was that such a tool should not have to connect to an Elasticsearch instance: we just want it to export the schema based on a configuration and a set of jars. Yet HSearch's metamodel creation and index manager creation/startup seem intertwined, and we cannot execute one without the other. So in order for the CLI tool to exist, we need to bring some changes to HSearch's startup process.
