Elasticsearch count terms ignoring spaces

Question

Using ES 1.2.1

My aggregation

{
    \"size\": 0,
    \"aggs\": {
        \"cities\": {
            \"terms\": {
                \"field\": \"city\",\"siz         


        

Answer 1

There are 2 approaches to solve this.

1. The not_analyzed way - But this wont consider different capital and small cases
2. The keyword tokenizer way - Here we can map different terms with different case as one.

These two concepts with working code examples are illustrated in this blog.
