Hey guys, I just realized that for query\_string\_queries, range query terms are not analyzed. Our index is configured with fields to allow sorting with ICU collation: "sort\_range\_analyzer" : { "type" : "custom", "tokenizer" : "whitespace", "filter" : ["lowercase", "en\_stop", "icu\_en\_collator"] }, We want to allow our client to query for a range within this field using a query like: "query" : { "range" : { "field.range" : { "gte" : "a", "lte" : "b" }}}, Is this possible? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
