It maps to the Lucene +`Analyzer`. + +Analyzers are (generally) composed of a single `Tokenizer` and zero or +more `TokenFilters`. A set of `CharFilters` can be associated with an +analyzer to process the characters prior to other analysis steps. The +analysis module allows one to register `TokenFilters`, `Tokenizers` and +`Analyzers` under logical names that can then be referenced either in +mapping definitions or in certain APIs. The Analysis module +automatically registers (*if not explicitly defined*) built in +analyzers, token filters, and tokenizers. + +See <<analysis>> for configuration details.
