Querying/filtering for multiple terms


The previous type of search works very well if you need to search for a single term. If you want to search for multiple terms, you can do that in two ways: using an AND/OR filter or using the multiple term query.

Getting ready

You need a working ElasticSearch cluster and an index populated with the script chapter_05/populate_query.sh, available in the code bundle for this book.

How to do it...

In order to execute a terms query/filter, perform the following steps:

  1. Execute a terms query from the command line:

    curl -XPOST 'http://127.0.0.1:9200/test-index/test-type/_search?pretty=true' -d '{
      "query": {
        "terms": {
          "uuid": ["33333", "32222"]
        }
      }
    }'
    

    The result returned by ElasticSearch is the same as in the previous recipe.

  2. If you want to use the terms query in a filter, this is how the query should look:

    curl -XPOST 'http://127.0.0.1:9200/test-index/test-type/_search?pretty=true' -d '{
      "query": {
        "filtered": {
          "filter": {
            ...
