How to use completion-suggester for city-location suggests respecting zip-codes

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
6

good stuff!! We are also working on adding support for a geo location in
the suggester that allows you to "pre-filter" based on where the users "is"
or it's "view" / "BoundingBox" center is.

happy that is worked out

Thank you for being patient with me, I did give that a try before, but got
an exception.
Just had the parameter placed on the wrong spot...

All working fine now :slight_smile:

curl -X POST 'localhost:9200/geodb/_suggest?pretty' -d '{
"city-suggest" : {
"text" : "12345 City",
"completion" : {
"field" : "suggest",
"size" : 20,
"fuzzy" : {
"edit_distance" : 2,
"prefix_length" : 5
}
}
}
}'

"size" : X should work just fine no?

Thank you, that does the trick!

Any chance to increase the number of returned results?
At the moment, I only get a maximum of 5 suggestions, although there are
more locations in the index that should match the query.

Thanks

try using the "prefix_length" parameter and set it to the length of you
zipcode then the fuzziness will not be applied to that prefix

Dear ElasticSearchers,
I'm trying to get the new completion suggester to help me suggesting
my users locations (cities).

My data mapping and data looks like this.https://gist.github.com/ThorstenS/7039670

What I want is that the names of the cities can be misspelled, and the
user still gets some (hopefully correct) results.
On the other hand, if the user searches via zip-code, the fuzziness
should not be applied to the zip-code, but only to the name of the city.

In my example data above, if i'd search for
curl -X POST 'localhost:9200/geodb/_suggest?pretty' -d '{
"city-suggest" : {
"text" : "12345 Ci",
"completion" : {
"field" : "suggest",
"fuzzy" : {
"edit_distance" : 2
}
}
}
}'

I'd get 2 results, but since I entered a valid zip-code, I'd only like
to get the one result with that exact zip-code. But still maintain
fuzziness on the name of the city.

I do understand that Elasticsearch's behavior totally makes sense,
since I've requested the data with a fuzzy span.
But is there a way to reach my goal?

Thanks for your help :slight_smile:
