Latvian analyzer

The built-in latvian analyzer can be applied to a text field using the following command:

PUT /latvian-index
{
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "content": {
        "type": "text",
        "analyzer": "latvian"
      }
    }
  }
}

Stem exclusion

You can use stem_exclusion with this language analyzer using the following command:

PUT index_with_stem_exclusion_latvian_analyzer
{
  "settings": {
    "analysis": {
      "analyzer": {
        "stem_exclusion_latvian_analyzer": {
          "type": "latvian",
          "stem_exclusion": ["autoritāte", "apstiprinājums"]
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Latvian analyzer internals

The latvian analyzer is built using the following components:

  • Tokenizer: standard

  • Token filters:

    • lowercase
    • stop (Latvian)
    • keyword
    • stemmer (Latvian)

Custom Latvian analyzer

You can create a custom Latvian analyzer using the following command:

PUT /latvian-index
{
  "settings": {
    "analysis": {
      "filter": {
        "latvian_stop": {
          "type": "stop",
          "stopwords": "_latvian_"
        },
        "latvian_stemmer": {
          "type": "stemmer",
          "language": "latvian"
        },
        "latvian_keywords": {
          "type": "keyword_marker",
          "keywords": []
        }
      },
      "analyzer": {
        "latvian_analyzer": {
          "type": "custom",
          "tokenizer": "standard",
          "filter": [
            "lowercase",
            "latvian_stop",
            "latvian_keywords",
            "latvian_stemmer"
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "content": {
        "type": "text",
        "analyzer": "latvian_analyzer"
      }
    }
  }
}

Generated tokens

Use the following request to examine the tokens generated using the analyzer:

POST /latvian-index/_analyze
{
  "field": "content",
  "text": "Studenti mācās Latvijas universitātēs. Viņu numuri ir 123456."
}

The response contains the generated tokens:

{
  "tokens": [
    {
      "token": "student",
      "start_offset": 0,
      "end_offset": 8,
      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
      "position": 0
    },
    {
      "token": "māc",
      "start_offset": 9,
      "end_offset": 14,
      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
      "position": 1
    },
    {
      "token": "latvij",
      "start_offset": 15,
      "end_offset": 23,
      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
      "position": 2
    },
    {
      "token": "universitāt",
      "start_offset": 24,
      "end_offset": 37,
      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
      "position": 3
    },
    {

      "start_offset": 39,
      "end_offset": 43,
      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
      "position": 4
    },
    {
      "token": "numur",
      "start_offset": 44,
      "end_offset": 50,
      "type": "<ALPHANUM>",
      "position": 5
    },
    {
      "token": "123456",
      "start_offset": 54,
