Hi, I was trying the new read capabilities of the ElasticSearch driver http://www.gdal.org/drv_elasticsearch.html and I found it extraordinary hard to use the json filters from the command line on Windows. It is hard also with curl so I saved the filters on disk and read them as -d @file.json and that worked well for me.
I tried if I could re-use those proved filters with ogrinfo and ogr2ogr by using --optfile but with poor success. Could it be possible to add a new --config option or perhaps -oo open option "ES_QUERY" for reading the json query/filter from a file just like curl does with -d @file.json? The same file should work unmodified for both software. I think especially newlines which make the filters more readable and also most filter examples in the net are formatted with newlines. See the examples at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/search-in-depth.html -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
