将索引设置添加到弹性搜索

Question

How do I add index settings to haystack with elastic backend , like this guy has added in the question?

django-haystack autocomplete returns too wide results

My ngram search is returning all the docs. When I rebuild my index the mapping is automatically taken from the model.

I found an answer. This link can help in creating custom elastic search settings : https://wellfire.co/learn/custom-haystack-elasticsearch-backend/

You have to inherit ElasticsearchSearchBackend to make a new CustomElasticsearchBackend and set the custom elasticsearch settings dict in the init of that class.

There can be a lot more that can be done using the same idea. Like making the build_schema function to work differently. Also the Fields of haystack like CharField, NgramField, EdgeNgramField can be inherited to make custom fields to work for you.
