question: Is custom index aliasing and searching possible?

Hi, I am thinking of using this library for my ES integration.
I am going to cluster my indexes as posts-{region}
to scope them and search within those scopes.
ie
posts-americas -> would host and be searchable for Americas region
posts-europe -> similary just for europe posts
and then I could delete the whole index to get rid of sort of a dynamic region.
Looking at the documentation I see this
# You should configure each index which you maintain in Elasticsearch here.
# This configuration will be read by the `mix elasticsearch.build` task,
# described below.
indexes: %{
# This is the base name of the Elasticsearch index. Each index will be
# built with a timestamp included in the name, like "posts-5902341238".
# It will then be aliased to "posts" for easy querying.
posts: %{
First: is this possible from the usage of this library or would I have to modify the task itself?
Second: Would the following return an %MyApp.Post{}
struct or a raw ES response with the meta-information about the results too?
Elasticsearch.post(MyApp.ElasticsearchCluster, "/posts-americas/_doc/_search", '{"query": {"match_all": {}}}')
Thank you in advance for the library!
