I want to order buckets by doc.score of top_hit. My current implementation is below.
group_by_iid: {
terms: {
field: 'iid',
order: { max_score: 'desc' },
size: 0
},
aggs: {
max_score: { max: { script: 'doc.score' } },
top_hit: {
top_hits: {
sort: [{ source_priority: { order: 'desc' } }],
size: 1
}
}
}
}
This is wrong because buckets are ordered by their top score, not their top source_priority document's score. Is there a way to solve this problem?
I had the same issue, and the way I resolved it was to introduce a sub-aggregation on the docs score. Then in my outer aggregation, I ordered by name of the max_score aggregation.
GET /my-index/my-type/_search
{
"query": {
"bool" : {
"should" : [ {
"match" : {
"searchTerm" : {
"query" : "style",
"type" : "boolean"
}
}
},
{
"flt_field" : {
"searchTerm" : {
"like_text" : "style"
}
}
}]
}
},
"aggs": {
"group_by_target_url": {
"terms": {
"field": "targetUrl",
"order": {
"max_score": "desc"
}
},
"aggs": {
"max_score": {
"max": {
"script": "doc.score"
}
}
}
}
}
}
I followed the directions on this link:
