I have data:
{"NAME": "BRIDGE CAMBODJA", "NAME": "CAMBRIDGE APARTMENTS", "NAME":"KULAMAN BRIDGE"}
I have the following query:
'{"query": {"query_string": {"query": "BRIDGE"}'
and I want what will appear is:
{"NAME": "BRIDGE CAMBODJA", "NAME": "KULAMAN BRIDGE", "NAME": "CAMBRIDGE APARTMENTS"}
How do I modify my search to set the field ranking / priority?
You can achieve your required result, by using the boost parameter directly in the query and querying for NAME which begins with BRIDGE, ends with BRIDGE, or which contains BRIDGE.
Adding a working example
Index Mapping:
{
"mappings": {
"properties": {
"NAME": {
"type": "keyword"
}
}
}
}
Search Query:
{
"query": {
"bool": {
"should": [
{
"query_string": {
"default_field": "NAME",
"query": "BRIDGE*",
"boost": 10
}
},
{
"query_string": {
"default_field": "NAME",
"query": "*BRIDGE",
"boost": 5
}
},
{
"query_string": {
"default_field": "NAME",
"query": "*BRIDGE*",
"boost": 1
}
}
]
}
}
}
Search Result:
"hits": [
{
"_index": "66095448",
"_type": "_doc",
"_id": "1",
"_score": 11.0,
"_source": {
"NAME": "BRIDGE CAMBODJA"
}
},
{
"_index": "66095448",
"_type": "_doc",
"_id": "3",
"_score": 6.0,
"_source": {
"NAME": "KULAMAN BRIDGE"
}
},
{
"_index": "66095448",
"_type": "_doc",
"_id": "2",
"_score": 1.0,
"_source": {
"NAME": "CAMBRIDGE APARTMENTS"
}
}
]
