Retrieve just the snippets?

New to ES here. Is it possible to retrieve just the snippets ("highlights")
instead of the entire document for a search?

Hi,

You can disable _source in your mapping, set store to yes for the field you want to highlight.

See http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/core-types.html for more information about mapping.

You can also let _source enabled, but in your query, ask for specific fields instead of _source (default). See: http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/search/fields.html

Does it help?

I feel like an idiot now. I could just set the "fields" field in the query
to fetch everything else. :smiley:
Thanks!

See Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic for
more information about mapping.
