Is there any way in ES to create a filter based on a document's score in
some query? I know min\_score allows me to do this at the search request
level, but I basically need that functionality at the filter level. If query
filter[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-filter.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-filter.html)had a min\_score parameter it would work. Or if a range
filter[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-range-filter.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-range-filter.html)let me use a document's score, not just fields.
Alternatively, is there any way to access the score in a script filter[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-script-filter.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-script-filter.html)?
I've tried \_score, doc['\_score'].value, and doc.score, but none of these
work.
