haha 🙂

actually, it'd be easy to repurpose Elasticsearch.pm for that. If I had time....

One thing I'm working on for Elasticsearch is a query builder, so I can transform this:

{  
"keywords" : "foo bar",  
"active\_or\_featured" : {  
"or" : {  
"featured" : "1",  
"status" : "active"  
}  
},  
"publish\_date" : {  
"\>=" : "2009-09-01",  
"\<=" : "2009-09-30",  
"!=" : "2009-09-24"  
},  
"keyword\_fields" : "text name"  
}

Into this:

{  
"filteredQuery" : {  
"filter" : {  
"bool" : {  
"must" : [  
{  
"bool" : {  
"must" : [  
{  
"bool" : {  
"mustNot" : [  
{  
"term" : {  
"publish\_date" : "2009-09-24"  
}  
}  
]  
}  
},  
{  
"range" : {  
"publish\_date" : {  
"to" : "2009-09-30",  
"exclude\_to" : 0,  
"from" : "2009-09-01",  
"exclude\_from" : 0  
}  
}  
}  
]  
}  
},  
{  
"bool" : {  
"should" : [  
{  
"term" : {  
"featured" : "1"  
}  
},  
{  
"term" : {  
"status" : "active"  
}  
}  
]  
}  
}  
]  
}  
},  
"query" : {  
"field" : {  
"text name" : {  
"boost" : 1,  
"query" : "foo bar"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

No worries, keep up with the excellent work on your ES client 😉
