Hello,

following is my java code to create index using the mappings and settings.  
however its creating the index with given name but when we run following  
command

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/test/test/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/test/test/_mapping)'

we get : {"error":"TypeMissingException[[test] type[test]  
missing]","status":404}

and also curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/test/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/test/_mapping)'

gives {"test":{}}

which is neither showing the mappings nor analyzer.

`
public void createIndex(String indexName, String type) throws IOException {
```
    client.admin().indices().prepareCreate(indexName)

```
.setSettings(ImmutableSettings.settingsBuilder().loadFromSource(jsonBuilder()
.startObject()
.startObject("mappings")
.startObject(type)
.startObject("properties")
.startObject("firstName")
.field("type", "string")
.field("search_analyzer",
"name_analyzer")
.field("index_analyzer",
"name_analyzer")
.endObject()
.startObject("email")
.field("type", "string")
.field("search_analyzer",
"email_analyzer")
.field("index_analyzer",
"email_analyzer")
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject()
.startObject("settings")
.startObject("analysis")
.startObject("analyzer")
.startObject("name_analyzer")
.field("filter",new
String[]{"standard","lowercase","asciifolding"})
.field("type","custom")
.field("tokenizer","standard")
.endObject()
.startObject("email_analyzer")
.field("type","custom")
.field("tokenizer","uax_url_email")
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject()
.endObject().toString()))
```
            .execute().actionGet();
}

```
`

problem is that it is not showing the mappings with properties and settings  
for analyzer.

please suggest

Thanks

In your code, you set mapping + settings at the settings level:

client.admin().indices().prepareCreate(indexName).setSettings(...your JSON  
with mapping and settings...)

That's why your settings and mappings are not parsed by elasticsearch.

You can try something like:

client.admin().indices().prepareCreate(indexName)

.setSettings("... your JSON settings..")

.addMapping(type, "... your mapping...")

Thanks Tanguy !  
yea i am trying now as per your suggestion.  
i was wondering like can we load mappings as well from json file like we  
are doing it with loadfromfile(setings) ?  
Thanks
