# Classic token filter

The primary function of the `classic` token filter is to work along side `classic` tokenizer and process tokens by applying several common transformations that help in text analysis and search. The transformations include:
- Removal of possessive endings such as "'s", for example: "John's" becomes "John".
- Separating words on internal hyphens, making terms like "co-operate" become tokens "co" and "operate".
- Removal of "." from acronyms, for example: "D.A.R.P.A." becomes "DARPA".


## Example

Following is an example of how you can define an analyzer with the `classic` filter:

```json
PUT /custom_classic_filter
{
"settings": {
"analysis": {
"analyzer": {
"custom_classic": {
"type": "custom",
"tokenizer": "classic",
"filter": ["classic"]
}
}
}
}
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

## Generated tokens

You can use the following command to examine the tokens being generated using the created analyzer:

```json
POST /custom_classic_filter/_analyze
{
"analyzer": "custom_classic",
"text": "John's co-operate was excellent."
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

The response contains the generated tokens:

```json
{
"tokens": [
{
"token": "John",
"start_offset": 0,
"end_offset": 6,
"type": "<APOSTROPHE>",
"position": 0
},
{
"token": "co",
"start_offset": 7,
"end_offset": 9,
"type": "<ALPHANUM>",
"position": 1
},
{
"token": "operate",
"start_offset": 10,
"end_offset": 17,
"type": "<ALPHANUM>",
"position": 2
},
{
"token": "was",
"start_offset": 18,
"end_offset": 21,
"type": "<ALPHANUM>",
"position": 3
},
{
"token": "excellent",
"start_offset": 22,
"end_offset": 31,
"type": "<ALPHANUM>",
"position": 4
}
]
}
```
