Why stanford core NLP?

Yes, we do have several open-source analyzers for ES, include the words popular IK, Jieba and some other NLP analyzers provided by some group and companies. And yes, each of them has their advantages.

But having compared a branch of test cases among all these analyzers of both open-source ones and commercialized, we found that it seems the Stanford NLP is the most fitful for our project as we need not only sentences' separate, but also the sentiments' analyze.

Why this project?

I searched both Google and Github and asked for help on the professional forum (elasticsearch China), and found that It seems not to have a stable project which could provide this requirement.

Well, there is only one choice for me, build a fitful plugin to make it done. :)

Use?

install by git

I suppose your machine has prepared the Java JDK 8, Maven, Git .etc
git clone this project
maven package this project mvn clean install -e -U
copy the jar packages into plugin folder:
1. the project jar of course
2. stanford-corenlp-3.9.2.jar
3. stanford-chinese-corenlp-models-current.jar
4. commons-logging-1.2.jar
restart the ES and enjoy

install by archive file

download the release file
untar into ES plugin folder
cp the stanford-*.jar files into this folder
also, download the stanford-chinese-corenlp-models-current.jar into this folder as it's too large to upload
restart the ES and enjoy

Quick Example

Create an index

curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/index  -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d'
{
  "settings": {
    "number_of_replicas": 0,
    "number_of_shards": 1
  },
  "mappings": {
    "_doc": {
      "properties": {
        "id": {
          "type": "integer"
        },
        "text": {
          "type": "text",
          "analyzer": "stanford-core-nlp",
          "search_analyzer": "stanford-core-nlp"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
'

Index some docs

curl -XPOST http://localhost:9200/index/_doc/1 -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d'
{"id":1, "text":"中美贸易摩擦到贸易战"}
'

curl -XPOST http://localhost:9200/index/_doc/2 -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d'
{"id":2, "text":"美国和墨西哥重新签订美墨贸易协定"}
'

curl -XPOST http://localhost:9200/index/_doc/3 -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d'
{"id":3, "text":"知乎裁员意味着互联网寒冬的到来"}
'

curl -XPOST http://localhost:9200/index/_doc/4 -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d'
{"id":4, "text":"比亚迪公开被撕拖欠款项，声称欠款方伪造公章"}
'

3.query with highlighting

curl -XPOST http://localhost:9200/index/_search  -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d'
{
    "query" : { "match" : { "text" : "美国" }},
    "highlight" : {
        "pre_tags" : ["<tag1>", "<tag2>"],
        "post_tags" : ["</tag1>", "</tag2>"],
        "fields" : {
            "text" : {}
        }
    }
}
'

Shit happens?

xx access denied (e.g. java.lang.RuntimePermission xxxx)?
-> Add these into plugin-security.policy
- permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "*";
- permission java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission "*"; -> Edit the jvm.options
- add the following cmd -Djava.security.policy=file://${dir of this}/plugin-security.policy
xx gc xx overhead?
-> Edit the jvm.options
- change the Xms && Xmx to be a larger size
