I am looking to delete a document by query using jest client. In elastic search 2.0 it can be done by adding delete by query plugin and by writing the code

DeleteByQuery deleteAllUserJohn = new DeleteByQuery.Builder("{\"user               \":\"john\"}")
        .addIndex("users")
        .addType("user")
        .build();
client.execute(deleteAllUserJohn);

But this is not supporting in elastic 5.5. There should be solution for this but I am not getting it after lots of searching. Please suggest how to do this or if there any link for that please let me know.

Thank you

Search document id first and then delete those ids. – Md.Alauddin Hossain Aug 02 '17 at 05:34
ya..Actually I have two scenarios. One is delete by document id and another is delete by user Id which is indexed. Delete by document id is working for me. – Ash Aug 02 '17 at 05:37
Which version of Jest are you using? – Val Aug 02 '17 at 05:49
And this answer might help, too: https://stackoverflow.com/a/44324251/4604579 – Val Aug 02 '17 at 05:50
@Val That means it has yet to be release by jest client and need to checkout the Jest master branch and build it myself. right? – Ash Aug 02 '17 at 06:05
@val I am using 5.3.2 – Ash Aug 02 '17 at 06:13
