Hello,  
Recently, I find a very helpfull information here :

> <https://gist.github.com/lukas-vlcek/1075067>

I would like to reproduce the same indexing and searching with php  
ElasticSearch client.  
My indexing seems to work!

\<?php require\_once 'vendor/autoload.php'; $client = new Elasticsearch\Client(); $doc\_src = "fn6742.pdf"; $binary = fread(fopen($doc\_src, "r"), filesize($doc\_src)); $doc\_str = base64\_encode($binary); $article = array(); $article['index'] = 'index2'; $article['type'] = 'attachment'; $article['body'] = array('file' =\> $doc\_str); $result = $client-\>index($article); ?\>

But my "search" does not work. I would like to find the sentence where my  
world is.  
I tried this :

$params2['body']['query']['match']['file'] = 'my word';  
$results = $client-\>search($params2);  
print\_r($results);

And I would like something like this : "file" : [ " It's_my word_  
/You can't use _my word_ / because " ]

I hope you can help me?

Thanks in advance

I find the answer :

$params2 =array();

$params2['body']['query']['text']['file'] = 'my words';  
$params2['body']['highlight']['fields']['file'] = array("term\_vector" =\>  
"with\_positions\_offsets");  
$results = $client-\>search($params2);  
print\_r($results);

If search is not working. Change this line  
_$params2['body']['query']['text']['file'_] _= 'my words';_ as \*$params2['body']['query']['match']['file']  
= 'my words'; \*

$params2 =array();

$params2['body']['query']['match']['file'] = 'my words';  
$params2['body']['highlight']['fields']['file'] = array("term\_vector" =\>  
"with\_positions\_offsets");  
$results = $client-\>search($params2);  
print\_r($results);
