but if i want to use wildcard in field, then what? How shoud look valid query for this:

"wildcard" : { "base/*" : "value" }

Answer 1

You can use query_string which allows both field names wildcards and query text wildcards.

Something around these lines:

{
  "query": {
    "query_string": {
      "fields": [
        "base*"
      ],
      "query": "ki*y"
    }
  }
}
