I’m a bit concerned about your « it does not work » statement.
We have only today 4 opened issues on it: 
https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-mapper-attachments/issues 
<https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-mapper-attachments/issues>
1 bug and 3 feature requests.

Could you explain a bit more what is not working? May be I missed something.
