Boost query in elasticsearch

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello everybody,
i would like to use boost in the case :

I have a personal index that contains the following properties:

  • sname
  • fname
  • login

When I do research on fname= 'toto' and sname = 't' I would like my results
are sorted by relevance. For example :

  • Toto tata
  • Toto tutu
  • Toto tttttt
  • Totoaaaa Tutfut
  • etc...

But I do not know how to deal with boost. Can you help me please ?

Hi Alexandre,

did you have a look at the cross_fields type of the multi match query?

Using an edge_ngram analyzer this might already solve your problem even
without the need for fine-tuning a boost value.

Best regards,
Hannes
