|
|
+Splits tokens at non-alphanumeric characters. The `word_delimiter_graph` filter
|
|
|
+also performs optional token normalization based on a set of rules. By default,
|
|
|
+the filter uses the following rules:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Named `word_delimiter_graph`, it splits words into subwords and performs
|
|
|
-optional transformations on subword groups. Words are split into
|
|
|
-subwords with the following rules:
|
|
|
+* Split tokens at non-alphanumeric characters.
|
|
|
+ The filter uses these characters as delimiters.
|
|
|
+ For example: `Super-Duper` -> `Super`, `Duper`
|
|
|
+* Remove leading or trailing delimiters from each token.
|
|
|
+ For example: `XL---42+'Autocoder'` -> `XL`, `42`, `Autocoder`
|
|
|
+* Split tokens at letter case transitions.
|
|
|
+ For example: `PowerShot` -> `Power`, `Shot`
|
|
|
+* Split tokens at letter-number transitions.
|
|
|
+ For example: `XL500` -> `XL`, `500`
|
|
|
+* Remove the English possessive (`'s`) from the end of each token.
|
|
|
+ For example: `Neil's` -> `Neil`
|
|
|
|
|
|
-* split on intra-word delimiters (by default, all non alpha-numeric
|
|
|
-characters).
|
|
|
-* "Wi-Fi" -> "Wi", "Fi"
|
|
|
-* split on case transitions: "PowerShot" -> "Power", "Shot"
|
|
|
-* split on letter-number transitions: "SD500" -> "SD", "500"
|
|
|
-* leading and trailing intra-word delimiters on each subword are
|
|
|
-ignored: "//hello---there, 'dude'" -> "hello", "there", "dude"
|
|
|
-* trailing "'s" are removed for each subword: "O'Neil's" -> "O", "Neil"
|
|
|
+The `word_delimiter_graph` filter uses Lucene's
|
|
|
+{lucene-analysis-docs}/miscellaneous/WordDelimiterGraphFilter.html[WordDelimiterGraphFilter].
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Unlike the `word_delimiter`, this token filter correctly handles positions for
|
|
|
-multi terms expansion at search-time when any of the following options
|
|
|
-are set to true:
|
|
|
+[TIP]
|
|
|
+====
|
|
|
+The `word_delimiter_graph` filter was designed to remove punctuation from
|
|
|
+complex identifiers, such as product IDs or part numbers. For these use cases,
|
|
|
+we recommend using the `word_delimiter_graph` filter with the
|
|
|
+<<analysis-keyword-tokenizer,`keyword`>> tokenizer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- * `preserve_original`
|
|
|
- * `catenate_numbers`
|
|
|
- * `catenate_words`
|
|
|
- * `catenate_all`
|
|
|
+Avoid using the `word_delimiter_graph` filter to split hyphenated words, such as
|
|
|
+`wi-fi`. Because users often search for these words both with and without
|
|
|
+hyphens, we recommend using the
|
|
|
+<<analysis-synonym-graph-tokenfilter,`synonym_graph`>> filter instead.

-NOTE: Using a tokenizer like the `standard` tokenizer may interfere with
|
|
|
-the `catenate_*` and `preserve_original` parameters, as the original
|
|
|
-string may already have lost punctuation during tokenization. Instead,
|
|
|
-you may want to use the `whitespace` tokenizer.

+Supported types include:
|
|
|

|
|
|
+* `ALPHA` (Alphabetical)
|
|
|
+* `ALPHANUM` (Alphanumeric)
|
|
|

+Path to a file that contains custom type mappings for characters. This allows

|
|
+you to map non-alphanumeric characters as numeric or alphanumeric to avoid
|
|
|
+splitting on those characters.
|
|
|

|
|
|
+For example, the contents of this file may contain the following:

+[source,txt]
|
|
|
+----
|
|
|
+# Map the $, %, '.', and ',' characters to DIGIT

|
+==== Customize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To customize the `word_delimiter_graph` filter, duplicate it to create the basis
|
|
|
+for a new custom token filter. You can modify the filter using its configurable
|
|
|
+parameters.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For example, the following request creates a `word_delimiter_graph`
|
|
|
+filter that uses the following rules:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Split tokens at non-alphanumeric characters, _except_ the hyphen (`-`)
|
|
|
+ character.
|
|
|
+* Remove leading or trailing delimiters from each token.
|
|
|
+* Do _not_ split tokens at letter case transitions.
|
|
|
+* Do _not_ split tokens at letter-number transitions.
|
|
|
+* Remove the English possessive (`'s`) from the end of each token.

|
|
|
+==== Differences between `word_delimiter_graph` and `word_delimiter`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Both the `word_delimiter_graph` and
|
|
|
+<<analysis-word-delimiter-tokenfilter,`word_delimiter`>> filters produce tokens
|
|
|
+that span multiple positions when any of the following parameters are `true`:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-catenate-all,`catenate_all`>>
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-catenate-numbers,`catenate_numbers`>>
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-catenate-words,`catenate_words`>>
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-preserve-original,`preserve_original`>>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+However, only the `word_delimiter_graph` filter assigns multi-position tokens a
|
|
|
+`positionLength` attribute, which indicates the number of positions a token
|
|
|
+spans. This ensures the `word_delimiter_graph` filter always produces valid token
|
|
|
+https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directed_acyclic_graph[graphs].
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The `word_delimiter` filter does not assign multi-position tokens a
|
|
|
+`positionLength` attribute. This means it produces invalid graphs for streams
|
|
|
+including these tokens.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+While indexing does not support token graphs containing multi-position tokens,
|
|
|
+queries, such as the <<query-dsl-match-query-phrase,`match_phrase`>> query, can
|
|
|
+use these graphs to generate multiple sub-queries from a single query string.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To see how token graphs produced by the `word_delimiter` and
|
|
|
+`word_delimiter_graph` filters differ, check out the following example.

|
+*Basic token graph*
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Both the `word_delimiter` and `word_delimiter_graph` produce the following token
|
|
|
+graph for `PowerShot2000` when the following parameters are `false`:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-catenate-all,`catenate_all`>>
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-catenate-numbers,`catenate_numbers`>>
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-catenate-words,`catenate_words`>>
|
|
|
+ * <<word-delimiter-graph-tokenfilter-preserve-original,`preserve_original`>>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This graph does not contain multi-position tokens. All tokens span only one
|
|
|
+position.

|
|
|

+The `word_delimiter_graph` filter produces the following token graph for
|
|
|
+`PowerShot2000` when `catenate_words` is `true`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|

|

+the following token graph for `PowerShot2000`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note that the catenated `PowerShot` token should span two positions but only

|
+spans one in the token graph, making it invalid.
