I am new to Elastic search and I am trying to create one demo of Completion suggester with whitespace Analyzer.
As per the documentation of Whitespace Analyzer, It breaks text into terms whenever it encounters a whitespace character. So my question is do it works with Completion suggester too?
So for my completion suggester prefix : "ela", I am expecting output as "Hello elastic search."
I know an easy solution for this is to add multi-field input as :
"suggest": {
"input": ["Hello","elastic","search"]
}
However, if this is the solution then what is meaning of using analyzer? Does analyzer make sense in completion suggester?
My mapping :
{
"settings": {
"analysis": {
"analyzer": {
"completion_analyzer": {
"type": "custom",
"filter": [
"lowercase"
],
"tokenizer": "whitespace"
}
}
}
},
"mappings": {
"my-type": {
"properties": {
"mytext": {
"type": "text",
"fields": {
"keyword": {
"type": "keyword",
"ignore_above": 256
}
}
},
"suggest": {
"type": "completion",
"analyzer": "completion_analyzer",
"search_analyzer": "completion_analyzer",
"max_input_length": 50
}
}
}
}
}
My document :
{
"_index": "my-index",
"_type": "my-type",
"_id": "KTWJBGEBQk_Zl_sQdo9N",
"_score": 1,
"_source": {
"mytext": "dummy text",
"suggest": {
"input": "Hello elastic search."
}
}
}
Search request :
{
"suggest": {
"test-suggest" : {
"prefix" :"ela",
"completion" : {
"field" : "suggest",
"skip_duplicates": true
}
}
}
}
This search is not returning me the correct output, but if I use prefix = 'hel' I am getting correct output : "Hello elastic search."
In brief I would like to know is whitespace Analyzer works with completion suggester? and if there is a way, can you please suggest me.
PS: I have already look for this links but I didn't find useful answer.
ElasticSearch completion suggester Standard Analyzer not working
What Elasticsearch Analyzer to use for this completion suggester?
I find this link useful Word-oriented completion suggester (ElasticSearch 5.x). However they have not use completion suggester.
Thanks in advance.
