Running Your Analyzer
Once you've defined a field type in your Schema, and specified the analysis steps that you want applied to it, you
should test it out to make sure that it behaves the way you expect it to. Luckily, there is a very handy page in the
Solr admin interface that lets you do just that. You can invoke the analyzer for any text field, provide sample
input, and display the resulting token stream.
For example, let's look at some of the "Text" field types available in the " bin/solr -e techproducts"
example configuration, and use the Analysis Screen ( http://localhost:8983/solr/#/techproducts/analysis) to
compare how the tokens produced at index time for the sentence " Running an Analyzer" match up with a
slightly different query text of " run my analyzers"
We can begin with " text_ws"
- one of the most simplified Text field types available:
