Elasticsearch - Custom stem override with wildcard character












0















I have implemented light English stemming in Elasticsearch.



I'm able to add a custom stem override so that "Guitarist" => "Guitar", for example, but I would like to add this as a general rule, so that "Guitarist" => "Guitar", "Violinist => Violin" etc.



Can I achieve this without using regex?

          For anyone looking at a similar problem, it appears that regex is the only solution. Example below specifically for words ending "ist".



          {
          "analysis": {
          "analyzer": {
          "my_analyzer": {
          "tokenizer": "standard",
          "char_filter": [
          "ist_filter"
          ],
          "filter": [
          "lowercase",
          "my_stem"
          ]
          }
          },
          "filter": {
          "my_stem": {
          "type": "stemmer",
          "language": "light_english"
          }
          },
          "char_filter": {
          "ist_filter": {
          "type": "pattern_replace",
          "pattern": "(.*)ist$",
          "replacement": "$1"
          }
          }
          }
          }


          Exclusions can be added to the pattern e.g. the below would ignore the words "mist" and "twist", but this would only be practical for a (very) limited number of exclusions.



          "pattern": "^(?!m|tw)(.*)ist$"
