Hi, is it possible, with current elasticsearch extensibility model, to create custom filter handlers ? so i could do something like this: { "query" : { "filtered" : { "filter" : { - ``` "my_custom_filter" : * ``` - ``` {* ``` - ``` ....* ``` - ``` }* }, "query" : { "match_all" : {} } } ``` } } and my 'handler' will be executed only for 'my\_custom\_filter' so i can mix my custom filters with default elasticsearch filters -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

In a plugin, you could either add query/filter classes per index creation, look at IndexQueryParserModuleTests Or you could add programmatically query/filter classes to IndicesQueriesModule instance by using addQuery()/addFIlter() methods, which means for the whole node / all indices.
