The index_options
parameter controls what information is added to the
inverted index, for search and highlighting purposes. It accepts the
following settings:
|
Only the doc number is indexed. Can answer the question Does this term exist in this field? |
|
Doc number and term frequencies are indexed. Term frequencies are used to score repeated terms higher than single terms. |
|
Doc number, term frequencies, and term positions (or order) are indexed. Positions can be used for proximity or phrase queries. |
|
Doc number, term frequencies, positions, and start and end character offsets (which map the term back to the original string) are indexed. Offsets are used by the unified highlighter to speed up highlighting. |
Numeric fields don’t support the index_options
parameter any longer.
Analyzed string fields use positions
as the default, and
all other fields use docs
as the default.
