I'm trying to do full-text search on a mongodb db with the Elastic Search engine but I ran into a problem: no matters what search term I provide(or if I use query1 or query2), the engine always returns the same results. I think the problem is in the way I make the requests, but I don't know how to solve it.
Here is the code:
def search(search_term):
query1 = {
"fuzzy" : {
"art_text" : {
"value" : search_term,
"boost" : 1.0,
"min_similarity" : 0.5,
"prefix_length" : 0
}
},
"filter": {
"range" : {
"published": {
"from" : "20130409T000000",
"to": "20130410T235959"
}
}
}
}
query2 = {
"match_phrase": { "art_text": search_term }
}
es_query = json.dumps(query1)
uri = 'http://localhost:9200/newsidx/_search'
r = requests.get(uri, params=es_query)
results = json.loads( r.text )
data = [res['_source']['api_id'] for res in results['hits']['hits'] ]
print "results: %d" % len(data)
pprint(data)
