Hi Alex, sounds interesting. I'm afraid my script won't be of tremendous help since a lot of what it does is use `apt` to install dependencies. Arch will use `pacman`...

@LeninGF Yes, the pinned pandas version is very old. But so is the ElasticSearch version, and I'd be more worried about that. Which version of ES are you using? Does...

I've put together a PR #349 implementing this. After messing around with `parallel::parLapply()` for a while and getting argument name collision errors, I settled with `foreach::foreach()`. The performance improvements look...

Could we use lists to handle the case where a different matrix or vector should be applied to each level? A list of length equal to the number of levels...

Shellcheck doesn't like this. Same occurrences in other script locations that I'm changing for now. DRY principle suggests these functions could be pulled out in a refactor. ``` $ shellcheck...

@nnarukulla For this to work, we'd have to build useful features from the timeseries so that xgboost can train on it. Do you have some example code for the types...

Also this would break our prediction intervals (which we finally gained for all the models in our ensemble).

Changes were made [here](https://github.com/ellisp/forecastHybrid/commit/5639179a499e80441476f94b89bd2b914820518e) and previous few commits to address similar problem of xreg used in some models but not others.

Great. Easter and major holidays should be easy enough to add, perhaps with an argument `majorHolidays = TRUE`. Any other things you'd like to see?
