As the error points out ElasticsearchException is not an attribute of Elasticsearch object . From the documentation it is a class in elasticsearch module

So the example code should look something on these lines :

import elasticsearch
es = elasticsearch.Elasticsearch()
es.index(index='tickets', doc_type='tickets', body=doc)
try :
    es.indices.create(index='test-index', ignore=400)
except elasticsearch.ElasticsearchException as es1:
    print 'error'
