elasticsearchHow do I construct an elasticsearch query?

To construct an Elasticsearch query, you will need to use the Query DSL (Domain Specific Language). The Query DSL is a JSON-style syntax that allows you to specify the query you want to execute.

For example, to search for documents containing the word "Elasticsearch", you can use the following query:

GET /_search
{
    "query": {
        "match" : {
            "message" : "Elasticsearch"
        }
    }
}

This query will return all documents that contain the word "Elasticsearch".

The Query DSL consists of several parts:

• GET: This denotes the HTTP method used to execute the query.
• /_search: This is the endpoint for searching documents.
• query: This is the root object for the query.
• match: This is the query type used to match documents that contain a specific term.
• message: This is the field in the document that will be searched.
• Elasticsearch: This is the term that will be searched for.

For more information on constructing queries, please see the Elasticsearch Query DSL documentation.
