Hi,
When I run this query against indexes created in my elasticsearch node
(version 1.0.0.Beta1-SNAPSHOT), I just get some results (10) while the
number of hits is '105'. Do I miss something (parameter) in the query ?
Query :
curl -XPOST '[http://localhost:9200/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost:9200/_search?pretty=true)' -d '
{
"query" : {
"matchAll" : {}
}
}'
Result :
{
"took" : 1,
"timed\_out" : false,
"\_shards" : {
"total" : 21,
"successful" : 21,
"failed" : 0
},
"hits" : {
"total" : 105,
"max\_score" : 1.0,
"hits" : [ {
"\_index" : "aaa",
"\_type" : "bbb",
"\_id" : "1",
"\_score" : 1.0, "\_source" : {"foo":"bar"}
},
...

Charles

Hello!
By default ElasticSearch returns only 10 documents from all the ones that were found. You can modify how many documents you want to be returned, look at size and from parameters - [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/search/from-size/](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/search/from-size/).
However, remember that fetching too many results with a standard query is not advisable and will result in poor performance. If you wish to fetch all query results you should look at the scroll functionality - [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/search/scroll/](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/search/scroll/)
