the index used in Elastic Search insertion can be configured per spider [by initializing an attribute on the spider](http://doc.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/spiders.html#spider-arguments), named index, and passing the desired value when the spider

```
curl http://192.168.33.10:6800/schedule.json -d project=psd_search_crawler \
-d spider=sixx_spider \
-d index=my_index

```
if the index is not configured on the running spider, the crawler settings value for variable **ELASTICSEARCH_INDEX** will be used.

if the item declares an id field, it will be used to update ES
