Set default to not_analyzed

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

hi, there,

I know ES default setting is "analyzed", how to set it to "not_analyzed", 'cause I want to try term-search with most of my fields.

Thanks,
Dennis

You can define an index template with a dynamic template which sets that to not_analyzed.

Thanks, David

I tried with your guide, but ES is working really strange.

I tied the following template, and assuming any string value in any type in i2 index, is not_analized, but it's not (some are not_analized while some are analized)
What I want is: any new string-value field in any type in i2 index, is not_analized.

curl -XPUT 'localhost:8200/i2?pretty' -d'
{
  "mappings": {
    "t2": {
      "dynamic_templates": [
        {
          "strings": {
            "match_mapping_type": "string",
            "mapping": {
              "type": "string",
              "index": "not_analyzed"
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}'

curl -X GET "localhost:8200/i2/_mapping?pretty"

curl -X PUT "http://localhost:8200/i2/t2/1?pretty" -d '{"first_name":"John","age":25,"interests":[{"name":"sports","level":"A"},{"name":"music","level":"B"}]}'
