Constant Score Query
editConstant Score Query
editA query that wraps a filter or another query and simply returns a
constant score equal to the query boost for every document in the
filter. Maps to Lucene ConstantScoreQuery
.
{ "constant_score" : { "filter" : { "term" : { "user" : "kimchy"} }, "boost" : 1.2 } }
The filter object can hold only filter elements, not queries. Filters can be much faster compared to queries since they don’t perform any scoring, especially when they are cached.
A query can also be wrapped in a constant_score
query:
{ "constant_score" : { "query" : { "term" : { "user" : "kimchy"} }, "boost" : 1.2 } }
