The standard analyzer is used by default for any full-text analyzed string
field. If we were to reimplement the standard analyzer as a
custom analyzer, it would be defined as follows:
{
"type": "custom",
"tokenizer": "standard",
"filter": [ "lowercase", "stop" ]
}
In Normalizing Tokens and Stopwords: Performance Versus Precision, we talk about the
lowercase, and stop token filters, but for the moment, let’s focus on
the standard tokenizer.
