Search for a document
editSearch for a document
editSearching is a hallmark of elasticsearch, so let’s perform a search. We are going to use the Match query as a demonstration:
$params = [
'index' => 'my_index',
'type' => 'my_type',
'body' => [
'query' => [
'match' => [
'testField' => 'abc'
]
]
]
];
$response = $client->search($params);
print_r($response);
The response is a little different from the previous responses. We see some metadata (took, timed_out, etc) and
an array named hits. This represents your search results. Inside of hits is another array named hits, which contains
individual search results:
Array
(
[took] => 1
[timed_out] =>
[_shards] => Array
(
[total] => 5
[successful] => 5
[failed] => 0
)
[hits] => Array
(
[total] => 1
[max_score] => 0.30685282
[hits] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[_index] => my_index
[_type] => my_type
[_id] => my_id
[_score] => 0.30685282
[_source] => Array
(
[testField] => abc
)
)
)
)
)
