I have elastic Search data in following format:
{
is_cricketer: 1,
name: Abraham,
cities: [
{ name: stellenbosch },
{ name: Nelspruit },
{ name: East London }
]
},
{
is_cricketer: 1,
name: Abraham,
cities: [
{ name: Rustenburg },
{ name: Nelspruit },
{ name: East London }
]
},
{
is_cricketer: 0,
name: deVilliers,
cities: [
{ name: Cape town },
{ name: Nelspruit },
{ name: East London }
]
}
I need to query elastic search to get all the profiles with is_cricketer = 1 and an OR query over the field for cities.name and name field. ie
( profile.is_cricketer == 1 && (profile.name == 'Abraham' || profile.cities[i].name == 'Nelspruit' ))
To get the profiles with OR query on the fields cities.name and name field for matching query string is as follows and it works a expected:
should: [
{
nested: {
path: cities,
query: {
multi_match: {
query: Nelspruit,
fields: [
cities.name
]
}
}
}
},
{
multi_match: {
query: Abraham,
fields: [
name
]
}
}
]
And the Must query to get all the profiles with field is_cricketer = 1 is follows:
{
must: {
match: {
is_cricketer: 1
}
}
}
Above both queries working fine and i am trying to combine both query as follows:
{
query: {
bool: {
must: {
match: {
is_cricketer: 1
}
},
should: [
{
nested: {
path: cities,
query: {
multi_match: {
query: Nelspruit,
fields: [
cities.name
]
}
}
}
},
{
multi_match: {
query: Abraham,
fields: [
name
]
}
}
]
}
}
}
which is not returning expected results, its returning all the profiles with is_cricketer = 1 without filtering for name and cities.name.
I also tried to include the should query inside must query as follows:
{
query: {
bool: {
must: [{
match: {
is_cricketer: 1
}
}, {
should: [
{
nested: {
path: cities,
query: {
multi_match: {
query: Nelspruit,
fields: [
cities.name
]
}
}
}
},
{
multi_match: {
query: Abraham,
fields: [
name
]
}
}
]
}]
}
}
}
But i got following error for the above query:
Error: [parsing_exception] [should] query malformed, no start_object
after query name, with { line=1 & col=64 }

How to combine both the queries to get desired result. Any help will be appreciated.
