Term Query Usage

Fluent DSL example

q
.Term(c => c
    .Name("named_query")
    .Boost(1.1)
    .Field(p => p.Description)
    .Value("project description")
)

Object Initializer syntax example

edit

new TermQuery
{
    Name = "named_query",
    Boost = 1.1,
    Field = "description",
    Value = "project description"
}

Example json output.

{
  "term": {
    "description": {
      "_name": "named_query",
      "boost": 1.1,
      "value": "project description"
    }
  }
}

Verbatim term query

edit

By default an empty term is conditionless so will be rewritten. Sometimes sending an empty term to match nothing makes sense. You can either use the ConditionlessQuery construct from NEST to provide a fallback or make the query verbatim as followed:

Fluent DSL example

edit

q
.Term(c => c
    .Verbatim()
    .Field(p => p.Description)
    .Value(string.Empty)
)

Object Initializer syntax example

edit

new TermQuery
{
    IsVerbatim = true,
    Field = "description",
    Value = "",
}

Example json output.

{
  "term": {
    "description": {
      "value": ""
    }
  }
}
