Hi, Is there a version of the analyze api available to the Java client? I looked around and didn't find it. I'd like to search for documents that start with a phrase. SpanFirst looks like it lets me search for terms at the start, so I'd like to run the phrase through the analyzer for the field. Thanks! -- ---

Hi Erick, have a look at the integration tests in org.elasticsearch.test.integration.indices.analyze, then you find an example AnalyzeResponse analyzeResponse = client.admin().indices().prepareAnalyze( "test", "this is a test").execute().actionGet(); Cheers, Jörg On Monday, November 5, 2012 8:45:34 PM UTC+1, Erick Lee wrote: > Hi, > > Is there a version of the analyze api available to the Java client?

I recreate the AnalysisModule locally and call it directly, avoiding the network hop to Elasticsearch. It all depends on how many calls you make to ES. When in doubt with the Java API, look for the Rest\*Action Java class (in your case RestAnalyzeAction), or the tests as Jörg pointed out. -- Ivan On Mon, Nov 5, 2012 at 12:05 PM, Jörg Prante [joergprante@gmail.com](mailto:joergprante@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi Erick, > > have a look at the integration tests > in org.elasticsearch.test.integration.indices.analyze, then you find an > example > > AnalyzeResponse analyzeResponse = client.admin().indices().prepareAnalyze( > "test", "this is a test").execute().actionGet(); > Cheers, > > Jörg > > On Monday, November 5, 2012 8:45:34 PM UTC+1, Erick Lee wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > Is there a version of the analyze api available to the Java client?

Thanks, that is what I was looking for.
