multi_field and sort

Jesus_Lopes · November 30, 2011, 4:17pm

Hi,

I'm starting to use elasticsearch. During my tests, I want sort the
results by name. Some names have accents (like Éder) and may have
other characters.

Bellow the gist with my test:

elastic.rb

# encoding: utf-8
require "tire"

users = [
  { :id => '1', :type => 'user', :name => 'Jesus Lopes',  :email => 'jl@zigotto.com' },
  { :id => '2', :type => 'user', :name => 'Alfredo',      :email => 'alfredo@email.com' },
  { :id => '3', :type => 'user', :name => 'Éder Costa',   :email => 'ec@zigotto.com' }
]

Tire.index("users") do

# encoding: utf-8
require "tire"

users = [
  { :id => '1', :type => 'user', :name => 'Jesus Lopes',  :email => 'jl@zigotto.com' },
  { :id => '2', :type => 'user', :name => 'Alfredo',      :email => 'alfredo@email.com' },
  { :id => '3', :type => 'user', :name => 'Éder Costa',   :email => 'ec@zigotto.com' }
]

Tire.index("users") do

elasticsearch.yml

index:
  analysis:
    analyzer:
      default:
        type: brazilian

I'm using multi_field correctly? Which better method for building this
sort?

Using solr we have the same problem.

Thank you!
