How to construct a boolquery dynamically in java api?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi there,

In my program, I generated a list of termQuery dynamically and I want to
combine them into a boolquery. How could I implement it in java api? Thanks.
By the way, I want to accomplish the fuction as follows:

QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders
.boolQuery()
.must(matchPhraseQuery("body", "some text"))
.should(termQuery1)
.should(termQuery2)
.....
.should(termQueryN);

more specifically, I want to accomplish the following lucene code in ES.

BooleanQuery booleanQuery = new BooleanQuery();
booleanQuery.add(query1, BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD);
booleanQuery.add(query2, BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD);

Hi Jingang,

In Elasticsearch, queries are built using the QueryBuilder interface, so
you are on the right track:
QueryBuilder finalQuery =
org.elasticsearch.index.query.QueryBuilders.boolQuery().should(query1).should(query2)

Hi David,

new documentation is excellent, though not so sure about the new design.
Maybe i just need to get used to it :slight_smile:

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your reply, it's helpful.
At last, I accomplish the purpose as follows:
BoolQueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders
.boolQuery()
.must(matchPhraseQuery("body", “text”));

then in every loop:

qb.should(termQuery(termQuery1));
