How to use mongo-connector with many collections and specific fields for every collection?

I want to use mongo-connector with ElasticSearch. I want to connect more than one collections and in every collection I want some specific fields. I know I can use comma separated names of collections with the "-n" and I know I can use "-i" with comma separated values to specify multiple fields. But how can I "tell" mongo-connector which fields belong to every collection. For example:

mongo-connector -m localhost:27017 -t http://localhost:9200 -d elastic2_doc_manager -n my_db.places,my_db.categories -i name,weight,rating

How will mongo-connector understand that "weight" belongs to "categories" and "rating" to "places"? And what happens if "name" exists in both(which is my case)?

The answer is that you just add the fields you want from every collection in the fields list. The problem is that if you want one field from a collection and there is a field with the same name in another collection, it will also be transferred to the ElasticSearch.
