hey guys, I'd like to index a document. And I want some fields to be indexable, and some fields to be storable, so that when I search for a field it will search through the indexable ones, and return the storable fields in the result set. Is it possible to do this in ES? ---

Store field mapping is one option, though note that by default the whole json document provided is stored under \_source, and you can ask for specific "paths" out of it when providing fields in the search request.
