Configure elasticsearch mapping with java api

Question

I have a few elasticsearch fields that I don\'t want to analyze before indexing. I have read that the right way to do this is by altering the index mapping. Right now my map

Answer 1

So, turns out elasticsearch docs are way outdated on that topic. not_analyzed does not exist anymore and string is now text. After some trial and error I came up with this:

CreateIndexRequest createIndexRequest = new CreateIndexRequest("yourIndexName");
XContentBuilder mapping = jsonBuilder()
                .startObject()
                  .startObject("properties")
                    .startObject("yourProperty")
                      .field("type", "keyword")
                    .endObject()
                  .endObject()
                .endObject();
createIndexRequest.mapping("yourEntityName", mapping);
client.indices().create(createIndexRequest);

Now yourProperty can be queried for exact value only with term query.
