I'm running on Elasticsearch 5.5
I have a document with the following mapping
"mappings": {
"shops": {
"properties": {
"locations": {
"type": "geo_point"
},
"name": {
"type": "keyword"
},
"suggest": {
"type": "completion",
"contexts": [
{
"name": "location",
"type": "GEO",
"precision": "10m",
"path": "locations"
}
]
}
}
}
I'll add a document as follows:
PUT my_index/shops
{
"name":"random shop",
"suggest":{
"input":"random shop"
},
"locations":[
{
"lat":42.38471212,
"lon":-71.12612357
}
]
}
I try to query for the document with the follow JSON call
GET my_shops/_search
{
"suggest": {
"result": {
"prefix": "random",
"completion": {
"field": "suggest",
"size": 5,
"fuzzy": true,
"contexts": {
"location": [{
"lat": 42.38471212,
"lon": -71.12612357,
"precision": "10mi"
}]
}
}
}
}
}
I get the following errors:
But when I change the "precision" field to an int, I get the intended search results.
I'm confused on two fronts.
-
Why is there a context error? The documentation seems to say that this is ok
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.5/suggester-context.html -
Why can't I use string values for the precision values?
At the bottom of the page, I see that the precision values can take either distances or numeric values.
