Number of characters in field

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi.
I am trying to find a way to express a character count filter in a
querystring, for instance: I need to find all documents with field
"subject" that holds less than 20 chars.
How would i do that in a querystring ?

You could use a script filter:

"filtered" : {
"query" : {
...
},
"filter" : {
"script" : {
"script" : "doc['subject'].value.length() < 20"
}
}
}

Well yes i know that one, is this really the only/best way to do it?.
My application is forwarding an input field directly to a querystring, the
user need to be able to query something like this:

tags:h1 AND subject:lenght>20
