Hi,

I am trying to search an text using elastic search server. I am able to get  
the results only if my input text matches one complete word, not the full  
text search. Ex : I have 2 matching text "Colors" and "Colorfull" in  
elastic search server, If i search for "Color", it will not pick any  
results. Can some one please help me to resolve the issue.

Here is my query  
{  
"multi\_match" : {  
"query" : "color",  
"fields" : ["keywords", "symptom"]  
}  
}

Thanks,  
Vijaya

You could use a edge n gram "analyzer" for this field.
