how can we write multiple compare condition in xpack?

```auto
"condition" : {
    "compare" : {
      "ctx.payload.status" : { "eq" : "red" }
    }
  }

```

I want to have two conditions, one for eq:red and eq:green,  
either one should satisfy the condition.  
Thanks

use painless and a `script` condition and just combine your conditions with `&&`

```auto
"script" : "return ctx.payload.status == 'red' && ctx.payload.foo == 'bar'"

```
