I have the Elastisearch couchdb river installed. I am looking to creating  
mappings for my database. I have different types of documents in my couchdb  
database. I want to specify an individual mapping for each type of  
document.

I tried this way and is throwing an error.

PUT [http://localhost:9200/\_river/user/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/_river/user/_mapping)  
{

```
"user" : {
  "properties" : {
    "first_name" : {
      "type" : "string",
      "search_analyzer" : "str_search_analyzer",
      "index_analyzer" : "str_index_analyzer"
    }
  }
  ,

```

"settings" : {  
"analysis" : {  
"analyzer" : {  
"str\_search\_analyzer" : {  
"tokenizer" : "keyword",  
"filter" : ["lowercase"]  
},

```
    "str_index_analyzer" : {
      "tokenizer" : "keyword",
      "filter" : ["lowercase", "substring"]
    }
  },

  "filter" : {
    "substring" : {
      "type" : "edgeNGram",
      "min_gram" : 2,
      "max_gram" : 20
    }
  }
}

```

}  
}  
}

ERROR:  
{"error":"MapperParsingException[Analyzer [str\_search\_analyzer] not found  
for field [first\_name]]","status":400}

Can any one help me how this can be rectified or any such kind of JSON  
examples?

Also, I need to give mapping for few more fields like "last\_name",  
"organization" etc. How I can specify multiple fields in the above  
example?

Thanks,  
Srilatha

Hey,

1st:  
Create your analyzer when you create your index: Something like the following (I did not check the exact syntax):  
$ curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/whateveryourindexis/](http://localhost:9200/whateveryourindexis/)' -d '{  
"settings" : {  
"analysis" : {  
"analyzer" : {  
"str\_search\_analyzer" : {  
"tokenizer" : "keyword",  
"filter" : ["lowercase"]  
},

```
    "str_index_analyzer" : {
      "tokenizer" : "keyword",
      "filter" : ["lowercase", "substring"]
    }
  },

  "filter" : {
    "substring" : {
      "type" : "edgeNGram",
      "min_gram" : 2,
      "max_gram" : 20
    }
  }
}

}

```

}'

See [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/admin-indices-create-index.html) for details

2nd: you want to define a mapping for your type user under index "whateveryourindexis".  
Don't send a mapping to the special index \_river

Send something like:  
$ curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/whateveryourindexis/user/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/whateveryourindexis/user/_mapping) -d '{  
"user" : {  
"properties" : {  
"first\_name" : {  
"type" : "string",  
"search\_analyzer" : "str\_search\_analyzer",  
"index\_analyzer" : "str\_index\_analyzer"  
}  
}'

See [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/admin-indices-put-mapping.html) for details

Then, you can create the river.

Does it help?

Hi David,

I created analyzer, mapping and then river. It is working fine now.

Thank you very much for your help.
