Hello, I am using completion suggester for user search on my website. I basically followed the howto from elasticsearch webpage. Created the mapping: post /gruppu/user/\_mapping { "user" : { "properties" : { "name" : { "type" : "string" }, "suggest" : { "type" : "completion", "index\_analyzer" : "simple", "search\_analyzer" : "simple", "payloads" : true } } } } And I put something to the ES: post /gruppu/user/100000001?refresh=true { "name" : "jorge", "suggest" : { "input": ["jjorge"], "payload" : { "userid" : 100000001, "grouporuser": "group" } } }' \*The problem is that when I delete or update above document, the suggester still seems to cache the data. My question is what is the correct way to update the documents in ES to have the suggester working correctly? \* For example the above document, after updating the document and changing the "input" , when I search for it I get the latest version: {"\_index":"gruppu","\_type":"user","\_id":"100000001","\_version":4,"exists":true, "\_source" : { "name" : "jorge", "suggest" : { "input": ["_jorge group_"], "payload" : { "userid" : 100000001, "grouporuser": "group" } } }' } When I run the suggester I get following: "user-suggest": [ { "text": "j", "offset": 0, "length": 1, "options": [ { "text": "jorge group", "score": 2, "payload": { "userid": 100000001, "grouporuser": "group" } }, { "text": "_jjorge_", "score": 1, "payload": { "userid": 100000001, "grouporuser": "group" } }, So what is the correct way of updating the ES documents when using the suggester ?

Jorge, May I ask what version of ES are you using? I just tried this on 1.0 RC 2 and the updates/deletes seem to be working properly as expected. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Strange, I tried it on 0.90.10 and it works as expected also. Can you please post the complete sequence of steps (exact commands starting with an empty cluster) from beginning to end so that I can try it and see if I can reproduce your problem?

Jorge, I ran your sequence and I got these results which look correct: { "\_shards" : { "total" : 5, "successful" : 5, "failed" : 0 }, "user-suggest" : [ { "text" : "j", "offset" : 0, "length" : 1, "options" : [ { "text" : "jorge", "score" : 1.0, "payload" : {"userid":2,"grouporuser":"user"} }, { "text" : "jorge sanchez", "score" : 1.0, "payload" : {"userid":2,"grouporuser":"user"} } ] } ] } Then I did this: DELETE [http://localhost:9200/gruppu/user/2?refresh=true](http://localhost:9200/gruppu/user/2?refresh=true) And query again, and I got this: { "\_shards" : { "total" : 5, "successful" : 5, "failed" : 0 }, "user-suggest" : [ { "text" : "j", "offset" : 0, "length" : 1, "options" : [ { "text" : "jorge", "score" : 1.0, "payload" : {"userid":100000001,"grouporuser":"group"} } ] } ] } And then DELETE [http://localhost:9200/gruppu/user/100000001?refresh=true](http://localhost:9200/gruppu/user/100000001?refresh=true) And query again, and I got this: { "\_shards" : { "total" : 5, "successful" : 5, "failed" : 0 }, "user-suggest" : [ { "text" : "j", "offset" : 0, "length" : 1, "options" : [] } ] } Keep in mind that when you suggest on "j", this entry will produce 2 suggestions because it matches both "jorge" and "jorge sanchez": post /gruppu/user/2?refresh=true { "name" : "jorge", "suggest" : { "input": ["jorge", "sanchez", "jorge sanchez"], "payload" : { "userid" : 2, "grouporuser": "user" } } } If you don't want that behavior, set the output property to a single string that will uniquely identify a single suggestion (instead of 2 suggestions for the above entry). So for example: { "name" : "jorge", "suggest" : { "input": ["jorge", "sanchez", "jorge sanchez"], "payload" : { "userid" : 2, "grouporuser": "user" }, "output": "jorge sanchez" } } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi, really appreciate that you are looking into this. I got it working with elasticsearch-1.0.0.RC2 release. I don't know what was wrong with 0.90. Now the deletes and updates are ok anyway I have a question. If there are two documents with "exactly" the same input - in my case i put two documents with input 'jorge' , is there a way how to get both of the documents returned for suggest query ? I only get one back which probably has the highest priority.

Hey Jorge, you can have two exact the same inputs. However, those need to have a different output in order to occur as different suggestions (as those are important for the data being returned). --Alex On Sat, Feb 8, 2014 at 4:02 AM, Jorge Sanchez [xsanch@gmail.com](mailto:xsanch@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi, > > really appreciate that you are looking into this.

Hi, then I am not sure if the suggester is the right tool to use for my use case. This is how I want to use ES: - I have model where are users, tags and groups. All of them can have the same values. The values searched are single word tokens no sentences - The search would be done using the twitter typeahead so I need to return the token which would represent the searched result. In case of the same value (like the group and user with the same name ) the token would be the same Using suggester is then not really helpful, I could do some dirty hacks like making sure that the output would be always different (appending some text to it) and using the payload where I would insert all tokens of the user. This approach doesn't seem right to me and I am sure there must be a better approach to this regular use case. Thanks again for looking into this , I really appreciate your time.

Hey, most likely I didnt get your use-case. But something like twitter typeahead would return a twitter handle as output, which is unique? Or something like "@spinscale | Alexander Reelsen", which is unique as well. Not sure what kind of output you want to return which is not unique. If you are searching in message contents, using the completion suggester might indeed not be the solution... --Alex On Mon, Feb 10, 2014 at 5:30 PM, Jorge Sanchez [xsanch@gmail.com](mailto:xsanch@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi, > > then I am not sure if the suggester is the right tool to use for my use > case.

Hi, twitter typeahead is autocomplete library which is broadly used to implement such features on websits. It allows to fetch remote suggests via AJAX which is the way how I use it. The AJAX query has the value the user searched for , in below case I typed "j" in the search bar. The typeahead expects back JSON, in the JSON you need to specify the tokens for the suggest so in my case I am returning tokens "jorge" and "jorge sanchez". If the user continues to type jorge then autocomplete would use these tokens to match. This is the JSON i reply with: [{"tokens": ["jorge", "jorge sanchez"], "usertype": "user", "profileImageUrl": "[https://gruppuoutput.s3.amazonaws.com/avatar/jorgeresized100jorge2012-10-13%2014.38.58.jpg?Signature=MLI5yLAZeWJp2S9WxJsg6TReFI0%3D&Expires=1392150840&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIXRNLLCMPTZU7ICA](https://gruppuoutput.s3.amazonaws.com/avatar/jorgeresized100jorge2012-10-13%2014.38.58.jpg?Signature=MLI5yLAZeWJp2S9WxJsg6TReFI0%3D&Expires=1392150840&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIXRNLLCMPTZU7ICA)", "name": "jorge sanchez", "value": "jorge sanchez"}] The tokens in JSON response are taken from ES suggest query, as I don't specify "output" when indexing I am getting back the matched input from the document. Now as I can have multiple users with the same real name or have a group with the same name, the tokens for individual suggest would be the same. I am going forward with this solution - I will put all the tokens into "input" and "payload" of the document, I will set the "output" to be randmized string of some big length. When I will do suggest I would be getting all the results as the output would be different and I would grab tokens from payload.

I ran into same "caching" problem with latest ES 1.3.4. I updated documents which just hold completion field to use with completion suggester, even if i deleted docs via id and they can't be found via \_search endpoint anymore i still get suggests for those deleted documents.

Answer: On the failing cluster we had accidently same node names for two nodes. After fixing that everything is fine. I am wondering: Shouldn't ES come up with some kind of warning when same node name is used twice in a cluster or do names haven't to be unique actually? Am Montag, 27.
