curl -XDELETE localhost:9200

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/test/tools -d '
{
	"type": "crayon",
	"color": "red"
}'

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/test/tools -d '
{
	"type": "crayon",
	"color": "green"
}'

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/test/tools -d '
{
	"type": "paint",
	"color": "blue",
	"applicator": "finger"
}'

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/test/tools -d '
{
	"type": "paint",
	"color": "red",
	"applicator": "brush"
}'

want <crayon> AND <paint> 
if <paint>
	want <applicator> is "brush"

sample query:

curl -XGET localhost:9200/test/_search?pretty=true -d '
{
	"query": {
		"filtered": {
			"query": {
				"match_all": {}
			},
			"filter": {
				"and": [
					{
						"terms": {
							"type": ["crayon", "paint"]
						}
					}
				]
			}
		}
	}
}'


but this doesn't do anything for {applicator: "brush"}

solution: 

curl -XGET localhost:9200/test/_search?pretty=true -d '
{
	"query": {
		"filtered": {
			"query": {
				"match_all": {}
			},
			"filter": {
				"or": [
					{
						"term": {"type": "crayon"}
					},
					{
						"and": [
							{
								"term": {"type": "paint"}
							},
							{
								"term": {"applicator": "brush"}
							}
						]
					}
				]
			}			
		}
	}
}'
