=============
Span Or Query
=============

Matches the union of its span clauses. The span or query maps to Lucene **SpanOrQuery**. Here is an example:


.. code-block:: js


    {
        "span_or" : {
            "clauses" : [
                { "span_term" : { "field" : "value1" } },
                { "span_term" : { "field" : "value2" } },
                { "span_term" : { "field" : "value3" } }
            ]
        }
    }


The **clauses** element is a list of one or more other span type queries.
