Hi, I'd like to announce a new phonetic analysis plugin for ElasticSearch. The Phonetic Analysis plugin integrates Lucene 3.6 Phonetic analysis into ElasticSearch. Available encoders are metaphone, doublemetaphone, soundex, refinedsoundex, caverphone, koelnerphonetik, haasephonetik Additionally, Kölner Phonetik and Haase Phonetik (an enhanced Kölner Phonetik) has been added. These two algorithms were developed in Germany and and better suited to german language than metaphone algorithms. In order to install the plugin, run: bin/plugin -install jprante/elasticsearch-analysis-phonetic/1.0.0 For source code and plugin download, see [https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-analysis-phonetic](https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-analysis-phonetic) Best regards, Jörg ---

Sounds interesting! How does this compare with [GitHub - elastic/elasticsearch-analysis-phonetic: Phonetic Analysis Plugin for Elasticsearch](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-analysis-phonetic)? Are they usable side-by-side? Could they potentially be merged?

I use more recent stuff, current Lucene 3.6 and commons-codec 1.6+, but what a shame, I overlooked the existing plugin, yes ☹ They can be merged, I'm quite sure. I will try launching a github pull request. If you install my plugin, it would overwrite the other.
