=== Nested Query
|
|
|
|
Nested query allows to query nested objects / docs (see
|
|
<<mapping-nested-type,nested mapping>>). The
|
|
query is executed against the nested objects / docs as if they were
|
|
indexed as separate docs (they are, internally) and resulting in the
|
|
root parent doc (or parent nested mapping). Here is a sample mapping we
|
|
will work with:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"type1" : {
|
|
"properties" : {
|
|
"obj1" : {
|
|
"type" : "nested"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
And here is a sample nested query usage:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"nested" : {
|
|
"path" : "obj1",
|
|
"score_mode" : "avg",
|
|
"query" : {
|
|
"bool" : {
|
|
"must" : [
|
|
{
|
|
"match" : {"obj1.name" : "blue"}
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"range" : {"obj1.count" : {"gt" : 5}}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The query `path` points to the nested object path, and the `query` (or
|
|
`filter`) includes the query that will run on the nested docs matching
|
|
the direct path, and joining with the root parent docs. Note that any
|
|
fields referenced inside the query must use the complete path (fully
|
|
qualified).
|
|
|
|
The `score_mode` allows to set how inner children matching affects
|
|
scoring of parent. It defaults to `avg`, but can be `sum`, `min`,
|
|
`max` and `none`.
|
|
|
|
Multi level nesting is automatically supported, and detected, resulting
|
|
in an inner nested query to automatically match the relevant nesting
|
|
level (and not root) if it exists within another nested query.
