Hi there,

I'd like to define a mapping for a hash map but I do not manage to get it 
right.
Here is the kind of documents I'd like to index:
{
    "message" : "Elasticsearch test 1",
    "dates": {
        "create": "2014-01-11",
        "update": "2014-06-12"
    }
}

{
    "message" : "Elasticsearch test 2",
    "dates": {
        "date_1": "2014-01-11",
    }
}

Note: date_1 is on purpose, I cannot know at mapping definition how many 
dates I will have to deal with.

As is, without mapping it works automagically (probably thanks to type 
autodetection) but is there a mean to get it done without ?

My problem is that I might have stuff like that too:
{
    "message" : "Elasticsearch test 3",
    "strings": {
        "string_1": "some text",
        "string_2": "2014-01-11"
    }
}

{
    "message" : "Elasticsearch test 4",
    "strings": {
        "string_2": "some other text"
    }
}


In this case I need to be able to enforce that string_2 is not a date 

What is the right way to do it ?
Manuel
