Using different analyzers for a single field (depends on condition)

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello everybody,

I was just wondering if it could be possible to use different analyzers for
a field which is present in different nested elements. To be more clear,
this is what I would like to do :

Imagine I have this kind of structure :

{
a: [
{
text: blabla,
language: fr
},
{
text: toto,
language: en
}
]
}

What I would like to do is using french analyzer for text with "language:
fr", and english (or standard) analyzer for texy with "language: en". From
what I read, it's not possible, but I would like to know if someone have
found a solution to do this. What I am doing in order to do this is using a
structure like this:

{
a: {
fr: {
text: blabla
},
en: {
text: toto
}
}
}

Using this, I can specify analyzers with the full path, but it could be
great if I can specify analyzers as explained in the first structure (using
script, or a kind of conditionnal analyzer or ...).

Any help would be appreciated :slight_smile:

Regards,
Loïc

Hey,

using different analyzers in one document, which are extracted from the
document is not possible. However if you have one document per language,
you could use the _analyzer capability for this, see

Hope this helps...

Hello Alex,

Thanks for your reply. I have already looked at the _analyzer capability,
but it doesn't help me. I will continue using the structure I described
above.
