Hiya

Here is another place where eg '1' is not being accepted as 'true':

curl -XPUT 'http://127.0.0.1:9200/foo/bar/_mapping?ignoreConflicts=true'  -d '
{
   "properties" : {
      "bool_val" : {
         "type" : "boolean"
      }
   }
}
'
# {
#    "ok" : true,
#    "acknowledged" : true
# }


curl -XPUT 'http://127.0.0.1:9200/foo/bar/1'  -d '
{
   "bool_val" : 0
}
'
# {
#    "ok" : true,
#    "_index" : "foo",
#    "_id" : "1",
#    "_type" : "bar"
# }



curl -XGET 'http://127.0.0.1:9200/foo/bar/_search'  -d '
{
   "query" : {
      "filteredQuery" : {
         "filter" : {
            "term" : {
               "bool_val" : 1
            }
         },
         "query" : {
            "matchAll" : {}
         }
      }
   }
}
'
# {
#    "hits" : {
#       "hits" : [
#          {
#             "_source" : {
#                "bool_val" : 0
#             },
#             "_index" : "foo",
#             "_id" : "1",
#             "_type" : "bar"
#          }
#       ],
#       "total" : 1
#    },

         },
         "query" : {

         }
      }
   }
}
