I agree. But then the only way to use dynamically generated "should clause(s)" is to include a mandatory "must clause" with some identity function i.e. added overhead. I also tried "minimum_should_match" of 0, but it gave 0 documents in result. I was expecting every document in the index as result.
Is it a bug or feature? Should it be reported?

With only a single "should", that makes it act like "must". > > On Thu, Mar 12, 2015 at 9:08 AM, parq <[email protected] <javascript:>> > wrote: > >> However, the following query returns the expected document, >> >> curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/test-cbx/bug/_search"; -d' >> { >> "query": { >> "filtered": { >> "query": { >> "bool": { >> "must": [ >> { >> "match": { >> "type": { >> "query": "some type" >> >> } >> } >> } >> ], >> "should": [ >> { >> "match": { >> "country": { >> "query": "de" >> >> } >> } >> } >> ] >> } >> }, >> "filter": { >> "term": { >> "type": "some type" >> } >> } >> } >> } >> }' >> >> May be it is like "should clause" does not work without a "Must clause" >> in query? >> >> >> On Thursday, March 12, 2015 at 2:54:00 PM UTC+1, parq wrote: >>> >>> Hello all, >>> >>> We have a single document in an index: >>> >>> $ curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/test-cbx/bug/_search?q=*"; gives >>> us the following response >>> {"took":2,"timed_out":false,"_shards":{"total":5," >>> successful":5,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":1,"max_score": >>> 1.0,"hits":[{"_index":"test-cbx","_type":"bug","_id":"1"," >>> _score":1.0,"_source": >>> { >>> "country": "lu", >>> "type": “some type" >>> }}]}} >>> >>> And the following two queries give no results, even though it’s a should >>> clause: >>> >>> $ curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/test-cbx/bug/_search"; -d' >>> { >>> "query": { >>> "filtered": { >>> "query": { >>> "match_all": {} >>> }, >>> "filter": { >>> "bool": { >>> "should": { >>> "term": { >>> "country": "de" >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> }' >>> >>> $ curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/test-cbx/bug/_search"; -d' >>> { >>> "query": { >>> "filtered": { >>> "query": { >>> "bool": { >>> "should": [ >>> { >>> "match": { >>> "country": { >>> "query": "de" >>> >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> ] >>> } >>> }, >>> "filter": { >>> "term": { >>> "type": “some type" >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> } >>> }' >>> >>> What is the preferred way to approach the bool query?
