attachment mapping

[gkapitany]

Hi,
I'd like to add attachment mapping for:

https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-mapper-attachments/

I not sure what is the correct way to do that. I would appreciate your help. Maybe would help to also update the documentation, in case somebody else needs it.
Here is the modified mapping I'm trying to use:

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/imapriverdata/_mapping?pretty'
{
  "imapriverdata" : {
    "mappings" : {
      "imapriverstate" : {
        "properties" : {
          "errormsg" : {
            "type" : "string"
          },
          "exists" : {
            "type" : "boolean"
          },
          "folderUrl" : {
            "type" : "string"
          },
          "lastCount" : {
            "type" : "long"
          },
          "lastIndexed" : {
            "type" : "long"
          },
          "lastSchedule" : {
            "type" : "long"
          },
          "lastTook" : {
            "type" : "long"
          },
          "lastUid" : {
            "type" : "long"
          },

            "type" : "string"
          },
          "uidValidity" : {
            "type" : "long"
          }
        }
      },
      "mail" : {
        "properties" : {
          "attachmentCount" : {
            "type" : "long"

            "type" : "long"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

I did restart elasticsearch after the change.

Thanks,

First make sure you have set

"with_attachments":true

and, of course, you have installed the elasticsearch-mapper-attachments plugin.

Your mapping should look like this (surely without the the dots (...) and comments (//XXX))

"mail" : {
        "properties" : {
          
    //start   
          "attachments" : {
            "properties" : {
              "content" : { 
                "type" : "attachment" 
              },
              "contentType" : {
                "type" : "string"
              },
              "fileName" : {
                "type" : "string"
              },
              "size" : {
                "type" : "integer"
              }
            }
          },
                  
    //end     
          
        
          "bcc" : {
            "properties" : {
              "email" : {
                "type" : "string"
              },
              "personal" : {
                "type" : "string"
              }
            }
          },
          "cc" : {
          ...
          ...
                  //rest of the mapping
