=== Path Hierarchy Tokenizer Examples
A common use-case for the `path_hierarchy` tokenizer is filtering results by
file paths. If indexing a file path along with the data, the use of the
`path_hierarchy` tokenizer to analyze the path allows filtering the results
by different parts of the file path string.
This example configures an index to have two custom analyzers and applies
those analyzers to multifields of the `file_path` text field that will
store filenames. One of the two analyzers uses reverse tokenization.
Some sample documents are then indexed to represent some file paths
for photos inside photo folders of two different users.

// TESTSETUP
A search for a particular file path string against the text field matches all
the example documents, with Bob's documents ranking highest due to `bob` also
being one of the terms created by the standard analyzer boosting relevance for
Bob's documents.
[source,console]

{
"query": {
"match": {
"file_path": "/User/bob/photos/2017/05"
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
It's simple to match or filter documents with file paths that exist within a
particular directory using the `file_path.tree` field.
[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
GET file-path-test/_search
{
"query": {
"term": {
"file_path.tree": "/User/alice/photos/2017/05/16"
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
With the reverse parameter for this tokenizer, it's also possible to match
from the other end of the file path, such as individual file names or a deep
level subdirectory. The following example shows a search for all files named
`my_photo1.jpg` within any directory via the `file_path.tree_reversed` field
configured to use the reverse parameter in the mapping.
[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
GET file-path-test/_search
{
"query": {
"term": {
"file_path.tree_reversed": {
"value": "my_photo1.jpg"
}
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
Viewing the tokens generated with both forward and reverse is instructive
in showing the tokens created for the same file path value.
[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
POST file-path-test/_analyze
{
"analyzer": "custom_path_tree",
"text": "/User/alice/photos/2017/05/16/my_photo1.jpg"
}
POST file-path-test/_analyze
{
"analyzer": "custom_path_tree_reversed",
"text": "/User/alice/photos/2017/05/16/my_photo1.jpg"
}
--------------------------------------------------
It's also useful to be able to filter with file paths when combined with other
types of searches, such as this example looking for any files paths with `16`
that also must be in Alice's photo directory.
[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
GET file-path-test/_search
{
"query": {
"bool" : {
"must" : {
"match" : { "file_path" : "16" }
},
"filter": {
"term" : { "file_path.tree" : "/User/alice" }
}
}
}
}
