Hi All

I have a custom similarity jar for a particular property/field. How would I  
make use of such a jar.

I am new to ES and have gone through basic documentation.

Using other similarity metric among available list in the mapping file is  
clear for me. But I am more interested in coding own similarity metrics.

Any pointers and Help is hugely appreciated.

Thank you  
Sri Harsha

Hey

check out the similarity module documentation at

You need to create your own lucene similarity and register it in a custom  
elasticsearch search plugin, a sample is at

Hope this helps
