How to specify analyzers for numbers and dates

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello everyone - I have been researching on what would be the best way to
store numbers (say amount) and dates in index? My understanding is that the
number and date fields do not really get analyzed.
Hence one way probably to do this is use multi-field, store numbers/dates
as string and then use right analyzers. Anything else anyone has to
recommend?

Thanks much in advance!

-Amit.

What do you want to do?
I'd say use date type for types and any type number for numbers.

I don't understand why you would have something else.

David - Thanks for the quick reply. Let me take an example:
Lets say I am storing 500 as a numerical value. I would expect an input of
500.0 to match what I have. How can I accomplish this?
