5.6 > 7.9 upgrade, auto_generate_phrase_query alternatives?

[myspacebarisbroken]

Hello,

I'm upgrading my codebase's ElasticSearch from 5.6 to 7.x due to some features I'd like to explore.

I'm currently using GoLang & "github.com/olivere/elastic/v5" specifically.

However, auto_generate_phrase_query has been depreciated, and AutoGeneratePhraseQueries no longer works on v7 (or v6) ("github.com/olivere/elastic/v7").

I've read to use explicit quoted queries, is there no setting i can set to true/false in ES when making requests to achieve this? Must i explicitly wrap my queries in quotation marks? Surely there must be a proper way to do this...

Ontop of this question, this might seem like a novice question, but is there performance updates in newer versions of ES or is it strictly Functionality updates?

Thanks!

I can't answer the first part sorry.

Both. There's been tonnes of performance improvements from 5.X to 7.X

Hi Mark,

Thank you for taking the time of day to respond to me! This is more incentive to upgrade!

The best similar thing i could get was using "type": "phrase" for any future lurkers having a similar needs!
