Hi there,
For some reason I cannot modify the meta data on my index. I can index
data, but all data is indexed as type "string". Also it is not case
sensitive (what I want) and it is not correctly tokenized. So I wanted
to change my metadata, but the changes are not accepted. Esp. I want
to use special tokenizer/analyzer for special fields. The data however
gets indexed.
Here is the output of the status information:
{
state: open
settings: {
index.number_of_shards: 5
index.number_of_replicas: 1
}
mappings: {
datastandards: {
properties: {
somenumber: {
type: string
}
search: {
type: string
}
}
}
}
aliases: [ ]
}
I use the following code to create and fill my index:
XContentBuilder data =
XContentFactory.jsonBuilder().startObject().startObject("properties")
.startObject("search")
.field("type", "string")
.field("store", "no")
.field("analyzer", "whitespace")
.endObject().startObject("somenumber")
.field("type", "integer")
.field("store", "no")
.endObject()
.endObject().endObject();
CreateIndexResponse response =
ElasticSearchPlugin.client().admin().indices().create(
new CreateIndexRequest(INDEX_NAME).
mapping(CHILD_TYPE_NAME, data)
).actionGet();
Logger.debug("Response: %s", response);
ElasticSearchPlugin.client().admin().indices().putMapping(new
PutMappingRequest(INDEX_NAME).type(CHILD_TYPE_NAME).source(data)).actionGet();
BulkRequestBuilder bulkRequest =
ElasticSearchPlugin.client().prepareBulk();
int n=0;
for(MyModel myModel : getModels()) {
try {
bulkRequest.add(ElasticSearchPlugin.client().prepareIndex(INDEX_NAME,
CHILD_TYPE_NAME, String.valueOf(myModel.getId()))
.setSource(XContentFactory.jsonBuilder()
.startObject()
.field("search", myModel.getHeadline() + "
" + myModel.getAbstractText())
.field("somenumber",
myModel.getSomeNumber())
.endObject()
));
n++;
} catch (IOException e) {
Logger.fatal("Cannot index #%d", myModel.getId(),
e);
}
}
BulkResponse bulkResponse =
bulkRequest.setRefresh(true).execute().actionGet();
if (bulkResponse.hasFailures()) {
Logger.fatal("Cannot update index - %s",
bulkResponse.buildFailureMessage());
} else {
Logger.info("Index created with " + n + " entries");
}
ElasticSearchPlugin.client().admin().indices().optimize( new
OptimizeRequest(INDEX_NAME)).actionGet()
Please help me. I think there is only a small glitch, but cannot find
the cause.
Also:
- Is it ok to use the bulk request? Or should I index every entry one
by one? - I have the feeling, that the optimize does not do anything. Should I
omit it?
Thank you and kind regards,
Tobias
