Field Query
editField Query
editA query that executes a query string against a specific field. It is a
simplified version of
query_string
query (by setting the default_field to the field this query executed
against). In its simplest form:
{
"field" : {
"name.first" : "+something -else"
}
}
Most of the query_string parameters are allowed with the field query
as well, in such a case, the query should be formatted as follows:
{
"field" : {
"name.first" : {
"query" : "+something -else",
"boost" : 2.0,
"enable_position_increments": false
}
}
}
