If you mean in Java, toString() gives me the json representation.

On a toString() I get the typical unimplemented toString class reference :
"org.elasticsearch.action.search.SearchRequest@142daa2e"

I am using elasticsearch 1.0.0, wonder if something has changed from 0.90
or 1.0.1?

Thanks for the response

I think you can print a QueryBuilder or a SearchRequestBuilder but not a SearchRequest.

	QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.queryString("my text");
	logger.info("Your query is : {}", qb);

	// this works as well
	node.client().prepareSearch().setQuery(qb).toString();

Is there really no way to print a search request?

Because QueryBuilder does not know about indices, or the fields we want the search request to return. And I'd like to have those fields in my JSon representation.

Basically I'd like to create a JSon representation that I can use as a source of a search request later on, like an editable template.

this is how to do it

            String json = XContentHelper.convertToJson(request.source(), true);
            LOG.info(json);
            json = XContentHelper.convertToJson(request.extraSource(), true);
            LOG.info(json);
