Some method name corrections, removing @logger tie-ins and going with puts for debugging right now.
Functional calls to get/put/delete indexes now.

Example below:

    # Initialize the client here...
    @client = ElasticSearch::Client.new(options)
    java_client = @client.instance_eval{@client}

    # Get/Fetch Example
    @logger.debug("Time to fetch all templates...")
    gettemplates = ElasticSearch::GetIndexTemplatesRequest.new(java_client, "*")
    result = gettemplates.execute
    # Results of this come as a list, so we need to iterate through it
    template_metadata_list = result.getIndexTemplates()
    templates = []
    i = 0
    template_metadata_list.size().times do
      templates[i] = template_metadata_list.get(i)
      puts "templates[i]: " + templates[i].to_s
      puts "templates[i].name(): #{templates[i].name()}"
      puts "templates[i].template(): #{templates[i].template()}"
      i += 1
    end

    # Delete Example
    @logger.debug("Time to delete a template...")
    delete_template = ElasticSearch::DeleteIndexTemplateRequest.new(java_client, @template_name)
    result = delete_template.execute
    @logger.debug("Delete result:", :result => result.to_s)
    @logger.info("Successfully deleted template ", :template_name => @template_name) if result.isAcknowledged()

    # Insert/Put Example
    @logger.debug("Time to insert a template...")
    get_template_json
    put_template = ElasticSearch::PutIndexTemplateRequest.new(java_client, @template_name, @template_json)
    result = put_template.execute
    @logger.debug("Insert result:", :result => result.to_s)
    @logger.info("Successfully inserted template ", :template_name => @template_name) if result.isAcknowledged()
