Query DSLedit

Elasticsearch provides a full Java query dsl in a similar manner to the REST Query DSL. The factory for query builders is QueryBuilders. Once your query is ready, you can use the Search API.

To use QueryBuilders just import them in your class:

import static org.elasticsearch.index.query.QueryBuilders.*;

Note that you can easily print (aka debug) JSON generated queries using toString() method on QueryBuilder object.

The QueryBuilder can then be used with any API that accepts a query, such as count and search.
