Querying nested fields

[DarrylD]

Attempting to do something along the lines of this:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/nested-query.html

Got the follow error when attempting to use nested as a query type:
Query type nested not found.

Any way to query nested fields?

Looking at the code I could not find a nest query type so the error is correct. I suppose you will need something along the lines of a nested aggregation for queries as well.

There is a nested filter type which is probably what you want except for a filter. If so, could duplicate that logic for queries as well.

Nested filters have been removed in 2.x. So the filter would only be appropriate in 1.x.

I am adding a nested query in for something I am working on and send a pull request when done.

I se this is still open. Do you mind if i send a pull request and try to work on it.

@parthdesai93 sounds great to me!

We're trying out a new approach to composing builders, which would also include the ability to write nested queries. Check out the experimental branch #71 if you're interested and to leave any feedback you may have.

The next version of bodybuilder will support nested queries, give it a try by installing the beta release:

npm install bodybuilder@beta

And see this example for its usage.

If this doesn't solve your issue please reopen!
