[annotator-dev] default analyzer for tags field

Thu Aug 1 00:34:20 UTC 2013

I believe he's suggesting to use an analyzer without stop words.

An easy solution would be to set it to not_analyzed, which is still
search-able as opaque tokens. It means that searches for "foo" would not
turn up things tagged "foo bar" but that might be the right idea.

Alternatively, we could set up an analyzer with a tokenizer special purpose
so that, for example, "foo_bar" and "foo bar" would be the same, and would
both be indexed as both "foo" and "bar".
