I am looking for a way to make ES search the data with multiple analyzers. NGram analyzer and one or few language analyzers.
Possible solution will be to use multi-fields and explicitly declare which analyzer to use for each field.
For example, to set the following mappings:
"mappings": {
"my_entity": {
"properties": {
"my_field": {
"type": "text",
"fields": {
"ngram": {
"type": "string",
"analyzer": "ngram_analyzer"
},
"spanish": {
"type": "string",
"analyzer": "spanish"
},
"english": {
"type": "string",
"analyzer": "english"
}
}
}
}
}
}
The problem with that is that I have explicitly write every field and its analyzers to a search query. And it will not allow to search with "_all" and use multiple analyzers.
Is there a way to make "_all" query use multiple analyzers? Something like "_all.ngram", "_all.spanish" and without using copy_to do duplicate the data?
Is it possible to combine ngram analyzer with a spanish (or any other foreign language) and make a single custom analyzer? I have tested the following settings but these did not work:
PUT /ngrams_index
{
"settings": {
"number_of_shards": 1,
"analysis": {
"tokenizer": {
"ngram_tokenizer": {
"type": "nGram",
"min_gram": 3,
"max_gram": 3
}
},
"filter": {
"ngram_filter": {
"type": "nGram",
"min_gram": 3,
"max_gram": 3
},
"spanish_stop": {
"type": "stop",
"stopwords": "_spanish_"
},
"spanish_keywords": {
"type": "keyword_marker",
"keywords": ["ejemplo"]
},
"spanish_stemmer": {
"type": "stemmer",
"language": "light_spanish"
}
},
"analyzer": {
"ngram_analyzer": {
"type": "custom",
"tokenizer": "ngram_tokenizer",
"filter": [
"lowercase",
"spanish_stop",
"spanish_keywords",
"spanish_stemmer"
]
}
}
}
},
"mappings": {
"my_entity": {
"_all": {
"enabled": true,
"analyzer": "ngram_analyzer"
},
"properties": {
"my_field": {
"type": "text",
"fields": {
"analyzer1": {
"type": "string",
"analyzer": "ngram_analyzer"
},
"analyzer2": {
"type": "string",
"analyzer": "spanish"
},
"analyzer3": {
"type": "string",
"analyzer": "english"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
GET /ngrams_index/_analyze
{
"field": "_all",
"text": "Hola, me llamo Juan."
}
returns: just ngram results, without Spanish analysis
where
GET /ngrams_index/_analyze
{
"field": "my_field.analyzer2",
"text": "Hola, me llamo Juan."
}
properly analyzes the search string.
Is it possible to build a custom analyzer which combine Spanish and ngram?
