elasticsearch QueryBuilder with dynamic list value in term query

Question

I have a code like below where I\'m doing multiple must in bool query. Here I\'m passing the must term queries in field \"address\". Now the ip address will come to me as a list

Answer 1

You can use the terms query to pass multiple values for single field. create a string array or set. and pass it to the terms query.

  Set<String> address = new HashSet<String>();
  address.add("10.203.238.138");
  address.add("10.203.238.137");
  address.add("10.203.238.136");
  if(address!=null)
     QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.boolQuery()
                .must(QueryBuilders.termsQuery("address",address))
                .mustNot(QueryBuilders.termQuery("address", "10.203.238.140"))
                .should(QueryBuilders.termQuery("client", ""));
  else
     QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.boolQuery()
                .mustNot(QueryBuilders.termQuery("address", "10.203.238.140"))
                .should(QueryBuilders.termQuery("client", ""));

Hope it helps..!

Answer 2

If you use TermsQuery for address array/set, it will return any documents that match with at least one or more of the provided terms.

List<String> address = new ArrayList<String>();
address.add("10.203.238.138");
address.add("10.203.238.137");
address.add("10.203.238.136");

BoolQueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.boolQuery();
qb.mustNot(QueryBuilders.termQuery("address", "10.203.238.140"));
qb.should(QueryBuilders.termQuery("client", ""));

for(String add: Address){
    qb.must(QueryBuilders.termsQuery("address",add));
}
