Hey, the main question is, what does proximity mean for you? Could be several things
* Words should be similar to the ones specified (including typos) * Words should be exact, but the occurance of each words should be near to each other * The whole phrase should be similar * etc... You might want to take a look at the fuzzy queries, at phonetic analyzers and, if you want proximity search like described in http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-string-query.html#_proximity_searches then you need to specify a number greather than one in order to define the distance. hope this helps a bit --Alex On Sat, Feb 15, 2014 at 2:28 AM, janek sendrowski <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi, > > Is there the possibility to specify a percentage value, when performing > the proximity search. > > LIKE: "this is an example"~0.5 (This doesn't work) > > Furthermore I like to know if there is a way to get the N best results, > not only the best. > > Thank you for your answers! > > Janek Sendrowski > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "elasticsearch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/e994c666-ee40-4643-963e-fd6de071f08b%40googlegroups.com > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
