Setting option in Search.php is ignored

[p365labs]

I create a test search to inspect a problem and setting a search with this option :

$index->search($query, ['search_type' => 'dfs_query_then_fetch']); the query with curl set in verbose mode shows it correctly in the query string

/elastica_elasticatestqueryboostingtestdeebfa/_search?search_type=dfs_query_then_fetch

but ES logs shows this

search_type[QUERY_THEN_FETCH] instead of search_type[DFS_QUERY_THEN_FETCH],

We should inspect if it's a bug of Elastica or of the es-php client

Did you try to run the query manually against ES and check what the log output is?

[p365labs]

yes if I execute the query with a curl

curl -XGET 'elasticsearch:9200/fedetest/_search?pretty=true&search_type=dfs_query_then_fetch' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
    "query": {
        "boosting" : {
            "positive" : {
                "term" : {
                    "name" : "vital"
                }
            },
            "negative" : {
                 "term" : {
                     "name" : "mercury"
                }
            },
            "negative_boost" : 0.2
        }
    }
}
'

enabling logs on ES returns search_type[DFS_QUERY_THEN_FETCH]

executing a search in Elastica like this one

$response = $this->_getTestIndex()->search($query, ['search_type' => 'dfs_query_then_fetch' ]);

ES output log is

search_type[QUERY_THEN_FETCH]

and if I try to debug the HTTP Transport (enabling VERBOSE on CURL) the querystring is correctly formatted :

/elastica_elasticatestqueryboostingtestdeebfa/_search?search_type=dfs_query_then_fetch

So there's something that not send this option... maybe es-php client but I'm not sure, I've created an issue 'cause this is not something directly related to allow Elastica working with ES6. I will try to inspect later maybe if u have some ideas...

Thanks for all the details. Will let you know if I find time to also dig into this.
