Need help to apply Analyzers

Hi,

We are indexing data which has various fields like Address, Phone Number,
Street Number etc. The problem which we are facing is Address field has
data space separated for .e.g "Oak Avenue", "Pretoria Avenue", "B Street",
"A Street" etc.

When we search for Pretoria Avenue it gives all set of documents which has
Pretoria as well as Avenue. But we need specific search to Pretoria Avenue
only.

Same problem with Phone Number and Street Number it has data with "-", "."
characters, and the document separate the data into 2 whenever it has "-" .

How and which analyzers we should use to get proper and specific results in
that case?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advanced.

In your mapping you can put

"index" : "not_analyzed"

You can can also do this through your custom analyzer if you have one
of those too.

Not Analyzed will not tokenize the string at all. The only issue I
would see in your senerio is if i searched for "Oak Ave" that wouldn't
come back. You might need to setup some synonyms or create a custom
analyzer.

Thanks for the prompt response. Use of synonyms could be difficult because
the data is huge and we cannot predict the data in advance.

We will look into custom analyzers for this, because we need documents to
be searchable if I write only "pretoria".

I would also have a look at Multi-Fields… It stores data different ways. Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic

Hi Shaun,

The multi-field-type needs two searchable fields like in example one is
Name and second one is untouched.name. This will be not suitable in our
condition because we are searching based on one field.

Is there any other alternative which will satisfy our condition? I tried to
make custom analyzer, what are the filters will make it not_analyzed as
well as searchable when give parts of the field string.

Thanks in advance.

Assuming that you are using text querieshttp://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/text-query.html,
you might want to take a look at changing default operator from OR to AND
or using text_phrase queries.
