Correct.  Delete is already set.   I will look at the API you suggested. 

# Decide what happens with the oldest indices when the maximum number of 
indices is reached.
# The following strategies are availble:
#   - delete # Deletes the index completely (Default)
#   - close # Closes the index and hides it from the system. Can be 
re-opened later.
retention_strategy = delete
