Using and/or/not filters

While building complex queries, some typical Boolean operation filters are required, as they allow to construct complex filter relations as in traditional relational world.

Every DSL query cannot be completed if there isn't an and, or, and not filter.

Getting ready

You need a working ElasticSearch cluster and the data populated with the populate script.

How to do it...

For executing and/or/not, we need to perform the following steps:

1. Searching documents with parsedtext equal to joe and uuid equal to 11111 is done by using the following code:

   curl -XPOST 'http://127.0.0.1:9200/test-index/test-type/_search' -d '{
       "query": {
           "filtered": {
               "filter": {
                   "and": [
                   {
                       "term": {
                           "parsedtext":"joe"    
                       }
                       
                   },
                   {
                       "term": {
                           "uuid":"11111"
                       }
               ...
