更新fielddata为true_如何在kibana中设置fielddata = true

I am new to Kibana, have data loaded into Elastic 5.0.0-alpha3 and am using Kibana 5.0.0-alpha3 to Visualise. I can display some numeric fields as histograms but when I want to use text fields I get:

Visualize: Fielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [publisher] in order to load fielddata in memory by uninverting the inverted index. Note that this can however use significant memory.

I am warned that the data (names of Publishers) may have been analyzed into subfields, but I'd like to display anyway.

How do I set fielddata=true?

EDIT: recent issues on Kibana github suggest that this is a new feature in 5.0.0 and is still awaiting an answer!

EDIT (following @Val's answer, and asking for Elastic newbie help, and hoping others will find it useful). The ingest script was:

fs = require('fs')

var elasticsearch = require('elasticsearch');

var client = new elasticsearch.Client({

host: 'localhost:9200',

log: 'trace'

});

fs.readFile('/Users/pm286/workspace/cmdev/getpapers/20160602/crossref_results.json', (err, data) => {

if (err) throw err;

document = JSON.parse(data)

document = JSON.parse(data)

for(i=0;i

client.create({

index: 'index',

type: 'type',

body: document[i]

})

}

});

How do I include @Val's approach in this?

解决方案

In your ES mapping, you need to set fielddata:true in your publisher field:

PUT your_index/_mapping/your_type

{

"your_type": {

"properties": {

"publisher": {

"type": "text",

"fielddata": true

}

}

}

}

You'll need to reindex your data after making this change, but afterwards Kibana won't complain anymore.

UPDATE

You can either execute the above query in the Sense UI or through curl

curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/index -d '{

"mappings": {

"type": {

"properties": {

"publisher": {

"type": "text",

"fielddata": true

}

}

}

}

}'

Or you can also execute it in your Javascript file just before creating your document:

client.indices.create({

index: 'index',

body: {

"mappings": {

"type": {

"properties": {

"publisher": {

"type": "text",

"fielddata": true

}

}

}

}

}

});
