Script Filter

edit

A filter allowing to define scripts as filters. For example:

"filtered" : {
    "query" : {
        ...
    },
    "filter" : {
        "script" : {
            "script" : "doc['num1'].value > 1"
        }
    }
}

Custom Parameters

edit

Scripts are compiled and cached for faster execution. If the same script can be used, just with different parameters provider, it is preferable to use the ability to pass parameters to the script itself, for example:

"filtered" : {
    "query" : {
        ...
    },
    "filter" : {
        "script" : {
            "script" : "doc['num1'].value > param1"
            "params" : {
                "param1" : 5
            }
        }
    }
}

Caching

edit

The result of the filter is not cached by default. The _cache can be set to true to cache the result of the filter. This is handy when the same script and parameters are used on several (many) other queries. Note, the process of caching the first execution is higher when caching (since it needs to satisfy different queries).
