How to use ElasticSearch Custom Similarity provider classes?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I'm using the following two java files for overriding the Default
Similarity of ElasticSearch 0.90.3 but it's not working for me.

I have complied the two java files and added the corresponding class files
in my /lib/elasticsearc-0.90.3.jar file in the path
org/elasticsearch/index/similarity. Now, I'm trying to use those files in
my mapping like mentioned in:-

curl -XPOST 'http://host:port/tweeter/' -d '
{
"settings": {
"similarity": {
"index": {
"type": "org.elasticsearch.index.similarity.CustomSimilarityProvider"
},
"search": {
"type": "org.elasticsearch.index.similarity.CustomSimilarityProvider"
}
}
}
}'

But it's giving me following error:-

{"error":"IndexCreationException[[acqindex] failed to create index]; nested: ElasticSearchIllegalArgumentException[SimilarityProvider [my_similarity] must have an associated type]; ","status":400}

Can anyone please tell me how can I use these two files for overriding the default similarity ?

Thanks

I solved the error problem but still Elasticsearch is using its Default
Similariy. Can anyone tell me why is it not taking these new
CustomSimilarity files into consideration.

I am assuming that you packaged the two Java files into a jar file and
deploy it to the $ES_PATH lib directory. Elasticsearch will pick up any jar
files in that directory.

Similarities are either set to be the default for all the indices via the
index.similarity.default.type configuration parameter [1] or it must be
associated directly with a field [2]. Use the example from the website,
your mapping would look something like:

{
"book" : {
"properties" : {
"title" : { "type" : "string", "similarity" : "index" }
}
}

As stated in the other thread, I believe the example provided in the plugin
is misleading since there is no individual index/search similarity. The
example creates two similarities types, "index" and "search", which use the
same similarity type.
