Sample data

To better explain the various concepts in this chapter, we will use the e-commerce site as an example. We will create an index with a list of products. This will be a very simple index called chapter6 with type called product. The mapping for the product type is shown here:

 #Delete existing index if any
 DELETE chapter6
 
 #Mapping
 PUT chapter6
 {
   "settings": {},
   "mappings": {
     "product": {
       "properties": {
         "product_name": {
           "type": "text",
           "analyzer": "english"
         },
         "description" : {
           "type": "text",
           "analyzer": "english"
         }
       }
     }
   }
 }

For the product_name and description fields, the English analyzer will be used instead of the default standard...
