Whitespace Tokenizeredit
The whitespace tokenizer breaks text into terms whenever it encounters a
whitespace character.
Example outputedit
POST _analyze
{
"tokenizer": "whitespace",
"text": "The 2 QUICK Brown-Foxes jumped over the lazy dog's bone."
}
The maximum token length is 255. If a token is seen that exceeds this length, then it is split at 255 characters.
The above sentence would produce the following terms:
[ The, 2, QUICK, Brown-Foxes, jumped, over, the, lazy, dog's, bone. ]
Configurationedit
The whitespace tokenizer is not configurable.
