elasticsearch php multiple names


I have FNAME and LNAME and Address that I want to search on. I want to search

FName = jo
LName = ro
Address = 34

that should give me all the records that have FName and LName starting with jo and ro (LIKE) so if it was mysql it would be FNmae Like jp% And LName Like ro% AND Address Like 34%

so I have so far this

 $params = [
            'index' => $this->arrayES['index'],
            'type' =>  $this->arrayES['type'],
            'body' => [
                'query' => [
                    'match' =>  ["FName"=>"Jo"]
                ]
            ]
        ];

Problem with that is that it gives me only JO

and when I try to add LName and Address

'match' =>  ["FName"=>"Jo", "LName"=>"ro", "Address"=>"34"]

that errors out.

Need some help

thanks

Solution

  • There's a way which allows to specify a very similar query to your SQL query, using the query_string query:

     $params = [
            'index' => $this->arrayES['index'],
            'type' =>  $this->arrayES['type'],
            'body' => [
                'query' => [
                    'query_string' =>  [
                        'query' => 'FName:Jo* AND LName:ro* AND Address:34*'
                    ]
                ]
            ]
        ];
