inheritance - spring data elasticsearch inheritence no results on query -

i have trouble inheritence , elasticsearchrepository. code (short version) : entities :

public abstract class father{     @id      protected string identifier;      // constructors     @field(type= fieldtype.string, index = fieldindex.not_analyzed)     public string uri;     // getter setter }  /* * stored in elastic search */ @document(indexname = "entity1", type = "entity1") public abstract class sona extends father{     // constructors }  /* * stored in elastic search */ @document(indexname = "entity2", type = "entity2") public abstract class sonb extends father{     // constructors } 

repository :

public interface databnfrepository extends         elasticsearchrepository<sona, string> {      public sona findbyuri(string uri);      @query("{ \"filtered\":{ \"filter\":{\"term\":{\"uri\":\"?0\"}}}}")     public sona findwithuri(string uri); } 

my trouble : i'm able put data elastic search not retreive them. if repository.findall() works. if repository.findwithuri(uri) not work (null result) parse exception findbyuri

i tried search exemples : https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-elasticsearch/blob/master/src/test/java/org/springframework/data/elasticsearch/entities/sampleinheritedentity.java there's no repository.

what have found: if replace uri by"foo", works. problem https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-string-query.html#_reserved_characters

so made test

uri = foo:bar => parse exception.

uri = "foo:bar" => parse exception.

uri = foo\:bar => parse exception.

uri = "foo\:bar" => parse exception

before inherited had no problems code. put uri in object, repository.save(object) , repository.findwithuri(uri), give me object.

any help/suggestion/comments appreciated. please. thank much

try following method.

findbyfatheruri(uri); 

this how works child entities. think it's same extended classes well. spring data's point of view, main class sona databnfrepository , it's id 1 linked repository when use findone method. have traverse through child class field trying use find object. since, not sure 100%, let me know if works once tried.
