Elasticsearch phrase suggester

    <p>I would like to use "<a href="http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-suggesters-phrase.html" rel="nofollow">Phrase Suggester</a>". I've got a problem. When typing "johni depp",

it returns several results in this order:

  1. john depp
  2. johnny depp
  3. joann depp
  4. johnn depp

How can I sort the suggestions using json so that the first result is "johnny depp"? I've tried doing this with a phonetic indexer, but without success.

This is my configuration:

Query :

{
  "query": {
    "multi_match": {
      "query": "johni depp",
      "fields": [
        "fullName.word"
      ],
      "operator": "and"
    }
  },
  "suggest": {
    "text": "johni depp",
    "film": {
      "phrase": {
        "analyzer": "whitespace-fullName",
        "field": "fullName.whitespace",
        "size": 5,
        "real_word_error_likelihood": 0.95,
        "max_errors": 0.5,
        "gram_size": 2
      }
    }
  },
  "from": 0,
  "size": 1,
  "sort": [],
  "facets": []
}

Indexer (I use Elastica, but it's same thing):

$elasticaIndex->create(
              array(
                  'number_of_shards'   => 4,
                  'number_of_replicas' => 1,
                  'analysis'           => array(
                      'analyzer' => array(
                          'autocomplete-index-fullName'  => array(
                              'tokenizer' => 'standard',
                              'filter'    => 'asciifolding, lowercase, edgeNGram'
                          ),
                          'autocomplete-search-fullName' => array(
                              'tokenizer' => 'standard',
                              'filter'    => 'asciifolding, lowercase'
                          ),
                          'word-fullName'                => array(
                              'tokenizer' => 'keyword',
                              'filter'    => 'lowercase'
                          ),
                          'whitespace-fullName'          => array(
                              'tokenizer' => 'whitespace',
                              'filter'    => 'lowercase'
                          ),
                      ),
                      'filter'   => array(
                          'edgeNGram' => array(
                              'type'     => 'edgeNGram',
                              'min_gram' => 1,
                              'max_gram' => 15
                          )
                      )
                  )
              ),
              false
);

Mapping :

$mapping->setProperties(
        array(
            'fullName' => array('type'   => 'string',
                                'fields' => array(

Hi,

You would get better results with the phrase suggester by using an analyzer
that has a shingle filter[1]. This filter will help Elasticsearch compute
frequencies of pairs of terms. Without it, it falls back to single-term
frequencies, so in your case it would only consider the frequencies of
'Johnny' and 'Depp' instead of the frequency of 'Johnny Depp' as a whole.

Set the min to 2 and max to either 2 or 3 and emit unigrams. That'll get it working. Also you probably want to set max errors to a number > 1 because .5 means 50% which can get quite large if someone types 20 terms.

That's been my experience with it.
