Can I have multiple filters in an Elasticsearch index's settings? -

i want elasticsearch index stores "names" of features. want able issue phonetic queries , type-ahead style queries separately. think able create 1 index 2 analyzers , 2 filters; each analyzer use 1 of filters. not seem able this.

here index settings json i'm trying use:

{     "settings": {         "number_of_shards": 1,         "analysis": {             "analyzer": {                 "autocomplete_analyzer": {                     "type": "custom",                     "tokenizer": "standard",                     "filter": ["standard", "lowercase", "ngram"]                 }             },             "analyzer": {                 "phonetic_analyzer": {                     "tokenizer": "standard",                     "filter": "double_metaphone_filter"                 }             },             "filter": {                 "double_metaphone_filter": {                     "type": "phonetic",                     "encoder": "double_metaphone"                 }             },             "filter": {                 "ngram": {                     "type": "ngram",                     "min_gram": 2,                     "max_gram": 15                 }             }         }     } } 

when attempt create index these settings:

http://hostname:9200/index/type 

i http 400, saying

custom analyzer [phonetic_analyzer] failed find filter under name [double_metaphone_filter] 

don't me wrong, realize sentence means. looked , looked erroneous comma or quote don't see any. otherwise, there , formatted correctly.

if delete phonetic analyzer, index created autocomplete analyzer , ngram filter.

if delete ngram filter, index created phonetic analyzer , phonetic filter.

i have feeling i'm missing fundamental concept of es, 1 analyzer per index, or 1 filter per index, or must have other logical dependencies set correctly, etc. sure nice have logical diagram or complete api spec of elasticsearch infrastructure, i.e. index can have 1..n analyzers, 1 filter, query must need 1 of bool, match, etc. unicorn not seem exist.

i see tons of documentation, blog posts, etc on how each of these functionalities, 1 analyzer , 1 filter on index. i'd dual functionality on 1 index (for reasons out of scope).

can offer help, advice here?

you missing proper formatting settings object. cannot have 2 analyzer or filter keys, there can 1 value per key in settings map object. providing list of filters seems work fine. when creating index object, second key overriding first.

look here:

"settings": {     "number_of_shards": 1,     "analysis": {         "filter": {             "double_metaphone_filter": {                 "type": "phonetic",                 "encoder": "double_metaphone"             },             "ngram": {                 "type": "ngram",                 "min_gram": 2,                 "max_gram": 15             }         },         "analyzer": {             "autocomplete_analyzer": {                 "type": "custom",                 "tokenizer": "standard",                 "filter": ["standard", "lowercase", "ngram"]             },             "phonetic_analyzer": {                 "tokenizer": "standard",                 "filter": "double_metaphone_filter"             }         }     } } 

i downloaded plugin confirm works. can test out @ _analyze enpoint payload:

{     "analyzer":"autocomplete_analyzer",     "text":"jonnie smythe" }
