filter + sorting not working in Elastic search

Question

I am using Elastic search-1.2.2.

Here I have to do a combination of filter + sort. Need to get to sorted id value with respect to filter

I don't like to use facet since it was deprecated. Query filter doesn't support AND filter,so I tried of mentioning boolFilter and specified it as post filter in searchQueryBuilder. Query:

{
  "from": 0,
  "size": 10,
  "sort": [
    {
      "display_order": {
        "order": "asc"
      }
    }
  ],
  "post_filter": {
    "bool": {
      "must": {
        "and": {
          "filters": [
            {
              "term": {
                "item_ids": ["564279ac-a887-4a0b-99e9-5802b4508747","564279ac-a887-4a0b-99e9-5802b4508447","564279ac-a887-4a0b-99e9-5302b4508747"]
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

but this query only filter the record,soting not working here.

whether I am doing any thing wrong?

Answer 1

I think you're overcomplicating the issue -

1. you don't have any aggregation so post_filter is not needed
2. you have bool and and but you have only a single filter
3. You use term but have multiple terms

What do you mean by "not working" - do you get an error?

Can you try this simplified query:

curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/hubware3/message/_search?pretty" -d'
{
  "sort": [
   {
     "display_order": {"order": "asc"}
   }
 ],
 "filter" : {
        "terms" : { "item_ids" : ["564279ac-a887-4a0b-99e9-5802b4508747","564279ac-a887-4a0b-99e9-5802b4508447","564279ac-a887-4a0b-99e9-5302b4508747"]}
      }
   }
}'
