Custom similarity in Elasticsearch 5.0

[Peter_van_der_Weerd]

Hi,

I'm porting my custom similarity provider to 5.0. There seems to be no interface that I can implement on my plugin to return a similarity provider.

Before diving too deep: is this functionality removed in 5.0 (no, right????)?
Or should it be implemented different nowadays?

Kind regards,
Peter

Nevermind. The IndexModule has an addSimilarity(). Will try that.

Hi,Did you figure out how to solve the problem?

[Peter_van_der_Weerd]

Hi Edwin,

Yep, just override the onIndexModule () in your plugin, like:

@Override
public void onIndexModule(IndexModule indexModule) {
    indexModule.addSimilarity("bounded_similarity", (name,settings)->new BoundedSimilarity.Provider(name, settings));	
}
