Hi,

I've written some python code to read a csv and create an index

#!/usr/local/bin/python

import sys  
import os  
import csv  
import codecs  
from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch

csvfile="fintech\_investments.csv"

#create the index mapping

mapping = {  
"fintech-map": {  
"properties": {  
"Year": {"type": "integer"},  
"Country": {"type": "keyword", "index": "not\_analyzed", "analyzer": "snowball"},  
"Company": {"type": "keyword", "index": "not\_analyzed", "analyzer": "snowball"},  
"Category": {"type": "keyword","index": "not\_analyzed"},  
"Investment Amount Received": {"type": "float","index": "not\_analyzed"},  
"Description": {"type": "keyword", "index": "not\_analyzed"}  
}  
}  
}

es = Elasticsearch(['10.132.32.75'])  
if not es.indices.exists("fintech-investments"):  
es.indices.create("fintech-investments")

es.indices.put\_mapping(index="fintech-investments",doc\_type="fintech-map",body=mapping)

with open(csvfile,'rb') as csvdata:  
reader=csv.reader(csvdata,delimiter=",",quotechar='"')  
reader.next()  
for id, row in enumerate(reader):  
print row  
content = {  
"Year":row[0],  
"Country":row[1],  
"Company":row[2],  
"Category":row[3],  
"Investment Amount Received":row[4],  
"Description":row[5]  
}  
es.index(index="fintech-investments",doc\_type="fintech-map",id=id,body=content)

whilst, this works, i would like to change the analyser type where in the code do i define the analyser type ?

Please use code formatting, otherwise it makes things very hard to read.

You already have that, it's at the end of this line;
