Sort Usage

edit

Allows to add one or more sort on specific fields. Each sort can be reversed as well. The sort is defined on a per field level, with special field name for _score to sort by score.

Fluent DSL example

s => s
.Sort(ss => ss
    .Ascending(p => p.StartedOn)
    .Descending(p => p.Name)
    .Descending(SortSpecialField.Score)
    .Ascending(SortSpecialField.DocumentIndexOrder)
    .Field(f => f
        .Field(p => p.LastActivity)
        .Order(SortOrder.Descending)
        .MissingLast()
        .UnmappedType(FieldType.Date)
        .Mode(SortMode.Average)
        .NestedPath(p => p.Tags)
        .NestedFilter(q => q.MatchAll())
    )
    .Field(f => f
        .Field(p => p.NumberOfCommits)
        .Order(SortOrder.Descending)
        .Missing(-1)
    )
    .GeoDistance(g => g
        .Field(p => p.Location)
        .DistanceType(GeoDistanceType.Arc)
        .Order(SortOrder.Ascending)
        .Unit(DistanceUnit.Centimeters)
        .Mode(SortMode.Min)
        .PinTo(new GeoLocation(70, -70), new GeoLocation(-12, 12))
    )
    .Script(sc => sc
        .Type("number")
        .Ascending()
        .Script(script => script
            .Inline("doc['numberOfCommits'].value * factor")
            .Params(p => p.Add("factor", 1.1))
        )
    )
)
