===== Terms lookup mechanism
|
2013-08-28 19:24:34 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When it's needed to specify a `terms` filter with a lot of terms it can
|
|
|
|
be beneficial to fetch those term values from a document in an index. A
|
|
|
|
concrete example would be to filter tweets tweeted by your followers.
|
|
|
|
Potentially the amount of user ids specified in the terms filter can be
|
|
|
|
a lot. In this scenario it makes sense to use the terms filter's terms
|
|
|
|
lookup mechanism.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The terms lookup mechanism supports the following options:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[horizontal]
|
2015-06-03 19:59:22 -04:00
|
|
|
`index`::
|
2013-08-28 19:24:34 -04:00
|
|
|
The index to fetch the term values from. Defaults to the
|
|
|
|
current index.
|
|
|
|
|
2015-06-03 19:59:22 -04:00
|
|
|
`type`::
|
2013-08-28 19:24:34 -04:00
|
|
|
The type to fetch the term values from.
|
|
|
|
|
2015-06-03 19:59:22 -04:00
|
|
|
`id`::
|
2013-08-28 19:24:34 -04:00
|
|
|
The id of the document to fetch the term values from.
|
|
|
|
|
2015-06-03 19:59:22 -04:00
|
|
|
`path`::
|
2013-08-28 19:24:34 -04:00
|
|
|
The field specified as path to fetch the actual values for the
|
|
|
|
`terms` filter.
|
|
|
|
|
2015-06-03 19:59:22 -04:00
|
|
|
`routing`::
|
2013-08-28 19:24:34 -04:00
|
|
|
A custom routing value to be used when retrieving the
|
|
|
|
external terms doc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The values for the `terms` filter will be fetched from a field in a
|
|
|
|
document with the specified id in the specified type and index.
|
|
|
|
Internally a get request is executed to fetch the values from the
|
|
|
|
specified path. At the moment for this feature to work the `_source`
|
|
|
|
needs to be stored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, consider using an index with a single shard and fully replicated
|
|
|
|
across all nodes if the "reference" terms data is not large. The lookup
|
|
|
|
terms filter will prefer to execute the get request on a local node if
|
|
|
|
possible, reducing the need for networking.

===== Terms lookup twitter example
|
2016-05-24 05:58:43 -04:00
|
|
|
At first we index the information for user with id 2, specifically, its
|
|
|
|
followers, than index a tweet from user with id 1. Finally we search on
|
|
|
|
all the tweets that match the followers of user 2.

The structure of the external terms document can also include array of
|
|
|
|
inner objects, for example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
curl -XPUT localhost:9200/users/user/2 -d '{
|
|
|
|
"followers" : [
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"id" : "1"
|
|
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"id" : "2"
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In which case, the lookup path will be `followers.id`.
