=== Wildcard Query
|
|
Returns documents that contain terms matching a wildcard pattern.
|
|
|
|
A wildcard operator is a placeholder that matches one or more characters. For
|
|
example, the `*` wildcard operator matches zero or more characters. You can
|
|
combine wildcard operators with other characters to create a wildcard pattern.
|
|
|
|
[[wildcard-query-ex-request]]
|
|
==== Example request
|
|
|
|
The following search returns documents where the `user` field contains a term
|
|
that begins with `ki` and ends with `y`. These matching terms can include `kiy`,
|
|
`kity`, or `kimchy`.
|

==== Top-level parameters for `wildcard`
|
|
`<field>`::
|
|
Field you wish to search.
|
|
|
|
[[wildcard-query-field-params]]
|
|
==== Parameters for `<field>`
|
|
`value`::
|
|
Wildcard pattern for terms you wish to find in the provided `<field>`.

|
|
This parameter supports two wildcard operators:
|
|
|
|
* `?`, which matches any single character
|
|
* `*`, which can match zero or more characters, including an empty one
|
|
|
|
WARNING: Avoid beginning patterns with `*` or `?`. This can increase
|
|
the iterations needed to find matching terms and slow search performance.

`boost`::
|
|
Floating point number used to decrease or increase the
|
|
<<query-filter-context, relevance scores>> of a query. Default is `1.0`.
|
|
Optional.
|
|
+
|
|
You can use the `boost` parameter to adjust relevance scores for searches
|
|
containing two or more queries.
|
|
+
|
|
Boost values are relative to the default value of `1.0`. A boost value between
|
|
`0` and `1.0` decreases the relevance score. A value greater than `1.0`
|
|
increases the relevance score.
|
|
|
|
`rewrite` (Expert)::
|
|
Method used to rewrite the query. For valid values and more information, see the
|
|
<<query-dsl-multi-term-rewrite, `rewrite` parameter>>. Optional. |
