I’m using Elasticsearch python client as http://elasticsearch-py.readthedocs.org/
I tried hard but still could not find the update api with upsert. Could anyone give me an example with ES python client upsert api please.

The example code is following.

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
es = Elasticsearch("localhost:9200")
es.update(
    index="test",
    doc_type="test1",
    id="1",
    body={
        "doc": {"username": "Tom"}, 
        "doc_as_upsert": True
    }
)

If body is without doc_as_upsert=true the code would throw an exception when the id is not existing. Additionally, make sure your data were wrapped in doc.

Method index(*args, **kwargs) adds or updates a typed JSON document in a specific index, making it searchable.

As pointed out in Python Elasticsearch Client -> API Documentation.
