Open ended range query

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,
Are there any wildcards available for (numeric) range queries in ES? In
particular, I am looking to run range queries like - {"lt":"*",
"gte":"2012-04-30"}.

Cheers

I don't think that lt is mandatory. Just try to omit it !

Hi David,
Yeah, its not necessary. I figured it out.
Since I am assigning these ranges based on user inputs, what if user wants
to search in all the documents. I believe ES currently doesnt support
{"lt":"", "gte":""}.
Any (elegant) workaround for that? I figured using something like
{"lt":}, but that would mean completely omitting gte field
which is not possible.

Cheers

If the user want to search on all ranges, then just omit the range
query/filter...
