Filtered Query in Elasticsearch Java API

Question

I am little bit confused while creating Filtered query in Elasticsearch Java API. SearchRequestBuilder class has setPostFilter method, javadoc of this method clearly says that filter will be applied after Query is executed.

However, there is no setFilter method Or some other method which will allow to apply filter before
query is executed. How do I create filtered Query(which basically applies filter before query is executed) here? Am I missing something?

Answer 1

 FilteredQueryBuilder builder =   QueryBuilders.filteredQuery(QueryBuilders.termQuery("test",   "test"),FilterBuilders.termFilter("test","test")); 

It will build the filtered query...To filteredQuery, first argument is query and second arguments is Filter.

Update: Filtered query is depreciated in elasticsearch 2.0+.refer

Hope it helps..!
