elasticsearch php client range filter issue

Question

i dont get this range filter to work with the elasticsearch php client:

Array ( 
[index] => xyz
[type] => imagesearch 
[body] => Array ( 
   [from] => 0 
   [size] => 10 
   [query] => Array ( 
      [filtered] => Array ( 
          [filter] => Array ( 
             [bool] => Array ( 
               [must] => Array ( 
                 [term] => Array ( 
                    [type] => abc 
                    [stationId] => 01
               ) 
               [range] => Array ( 
                    [timestamp] => Array ( 
                       [gt] => 1449356400 
                       ) 
                    )
               ) 
          ) 
       ) 
       [query] => Array ( 
          [match] => Array (
            [_all] => Hund 
          ) 
       ) 
     ) 
   ) 
) 

)

without the range filter the query/filter works fine. what am i missing?

Elasticsearch (backed by Java) uses different format for timestamp. Instead of seconds it uses miliseconds, so you have to multiply your timestamp by 1000.

To solve problems like these there are abstraction levels for PHP and integrations for frameworks .
