I am having a field named title which is having values as below
1. apple iphone 6s
2. apple iphone 6
3. apple iphone 6s plus
4. apple iphone
5. apple iphone 5s
So if user searches for
> apple iphone 6
> Then it should come in the order as
> 2 \> 1 \> 3 \> 4 \> 5
> . and if user searches for
> apple iphone 6s
> It should come in order as
> 1 \> 3 \> 2 \> 4 \> 5.
> How can this be done using elasticsearch.
I have used multi\_search and all. But no help.
The order should be exact match first, then prefix. then phrases then field containing all 3 terms and then field containing 2 terms and then field containing 1 terms and so on.
Thank you for your help.
