Fuzzy query on dates with ElasticSearch Java API

Question

I'm trying to perform the following query through ElasticSearch Java API

{
 "query" : {
    "fuzzy" : {
        "dateOfBirth" : {
            "value" : "1944-11-30",
            "fuzziness" : "365d"
        }
    }
 }
}

I doesn't understand how to specify the fuzzines value for 365 days in this kind of query.

You can use this:

FuzzyQueryBuilder queryBuilder = fuzzyQuery("dateOfBirth" ,"1944-11-30" ).fuzziness(Fuzziness.build("365d"))

Hope this helps

Thank's for your help. I've notice that the Fuzziness constructor is private, so I used the static build method provided by the Fuzziness class.

Ohh I did not notice. Yes you should use build Method . Updated my answer
