ICU Analysis for Elasticsearch
==================================
The ICU Analysis plugin integrates Lucene ICU module into elasticsearch, adding ICU relates analysis components.
In order to install the plugin, simply run:
```sh
bin/plugin -install elasticsearch/elasticsearch-analysis-icu/2.4.0
```
You need to install a version matching your Elasticsearch version:

```
ICU Normalization
-----------------
Normalizes characters as explained [here](http://userguide.icu-project.org/transforms/normalization). It registers itself by default under `icu_normalizer` or `icuNormalizer` using the default settings. Allows for the name parameter to be provided which can include the following values: `nfc`, `nfkc`, and `nfkc_cf`. Here is a sample settings:
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"collation" : {
"tokenizer" : "keyword",
"filter" : ["icu_normalizer"]
}
}
}
}
}
```
ICU Folding
-----------
Folding of unicode characters based on `UTR#30`. It registers itself under `icu_folding` and `icuFolding` names. Sample setting:
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"collation" : {
"tokenizer" : "keyword",
"filter" : ["icu_folding"]
}
}
}
}
}
```
ICU Filtering
-------------
The folding can be filtered by a set of unicode characters with the parameter `unicodeSetFilter`. This is useful for a
non-internationalized search engine where retaining a set of national characters which are primary letters in a specific
language is wanted. See syntax for the UnicodeSet [here](http://icu-project.org/apiref/icu4j/com/ibm/icu/text/UnicodeSet.html).
The Following example exempts Swedish characters from the folding. Note that the filtered characters are NOT lowercased which is why we add that filter below.
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"folding" : {
"tokenizer" : "standard",
"filter" : ["my_icu_folding", "lowercase"]
}
}
"filter" : {
"my_icu_folding" : {
"type" : "icu_folding"
"unicodeSetFilter" : "[^åäöÅÄÖ]"
}
}
}
}
}
```
ICU Collation
-------------
Uses collation token filter. Allows to either specify the rules for collation
(defined [here](http://www.icu-project.org/userguide/Collate_Customization.html)) using the `rules` parameter
(can point to a location or expressed in the settings, location can be relative to config location), or using the
`language` parameter (further specialized by country and variant). By default registers under `icu_collation` or
`icuCollation` and uses the default locale.
Here is a sample settings:
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"collation" : {
"tokenizer" : "keyword",
"filter" : ["icu_collation"]
}
}
}
}
}
```
And here is a sample of custom collation:
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"collation" : {
"tokenizer" : "keyword",
"filter" : ["myCollator"]
}
},
"filter" : {
"myCollator" : {
"type" : "icu_collation",
"language" : "en"
}
}
}
}
}
```
Optional options:
* `strength` - The strength property determines the minimum level of difference considered significant during comparison.
The default strength for the Collator is `tertiary`, unless specified otherwise by the locale used to create the Collator.
Possible values: `primary`, `secondary`, `tertiary`, `quaternary` or `identical`.
See [ICU Collation](http://icu-project.org/apiref/icu4j/com/ibm/icu/text/Collator.html) documentation for a more detailed
explanation for the specific values.
* `decomposition` - Possible values: `no` or `canonical`. Defaults to `no`. Setting this decomposition property with
`canonical` allows the Collator to handle un-normalized text properly, producing the same results as if the text were
normalized. If `no` is set, it is the user's responsibility to insure that all text is already in the appropriate form
before a comparison or before getting a CollationKey. Adjusting decomposition mode allows the user to select between
faster and more complete collation behavior. Since a great many of the world's languages do not require text
normalization, most locales set `no` as the default decomposition mode.
Expert options:
* `alternate` - Possible values: `shifted` or `non-ignorable`. Sets the alternate handling for strength `quaternary`
to be either shifted or non-ignorable. What boils down to ignoring punctuation and whitespace.
* `caseLevel` - Possible values: `true` or `false`. Default is `false`. Whether case level sorting is required. When
strength is set to `primary` this will ignore accent differences.
* `caseFirst` - Possible values: `lower` or `upper`. Useful to control which case is sorted first when case is not ignored
for strength `tertiary`.
* `numeric` - Possible values: `true` or `false`. Whether digits are sorted according to numeric representation. For
example the value `egg-9` is sorted before the value `egg-21`. Defaults to `false`.
* `variableTop` - Single character or contraction. Controls what is variable for `alternate`.
* `hiraganaQuaternaryMode` - Possible values: `true` or `false`. Defaults to `false`. Distinguishing between Katakana
and Hiragana characters in `quaternary` strength .
ICU Tokenizer
-------------
Breaks text into words according to [UAX #29: Unicode Text Segmentation](http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/).
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"collation" : {
"tokenizer" : "icu_tokenizer",
}
}
}
}
}
```
ICU Normalization CharFilter
-----------------
Normalizes characters as explained [here](http://userguide.icu-project.org/transforms/normalization).
It registers itself by default under `icu_normalizer` or `icuNormalizer` using the default settings.
Allows for the name parameter to be provided which can include the following values: `nfc`, `nfkc`, and `nfkc_cf`.
Allows for the mode parameter to be provided which can include the following values: `compose` and `decompose`.
Use `decompose` with `nfc` or `nfkc`, to get `nfd` or `nfkd`, respectively.
Here is a sample settings:
```js
{
"index" : {
"analysis" : {
"analyzer" : {
"collation" : {
"tokenizer" : "keyword",
"char_filter" : ["icu_normalizer"]
}
}
}
}
}
```
