Field Highlight Orderedit
Elasticsearch highlights the fields in the order that they are sent. Per the
json spec objects are unordered but if you need to be explicit about the order
that fields are highlighted then you can use an array for fields like this:
"highlight": {
"fields": [
{"title":{ /*params*/ }},
{"text":{ /*params*/ }}
]
}
None of the highlighters built into Elasticsearch care about the order that the fields are highlighted but a plugin may.
