I am writing an [analysis plugin](https://github.com/ralgond/elasticsearch-analysis-edgengram) for elasticsearch, which maps a sentence to a prefix array. e.g. "EVA EGG京" will be mapped to term array [E, EV, EVA, E, EG, EGG, 京].

However, when I search one of [E，EV，EVA，E, EG，EGG], they match nothing. I use the query: `GET my-index-001/_termvectors/1?fields=name` , it shows that [E，EV，EVA，E, EG，EGG] all exist.

So, to debug this question, I want to dump the index to see what has been index, can someone give me a hint?
