[jira] [Comment Edited] (SOLR-9665) Facet Values Sort Order: Add 3rd choice: Numeric Sort

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9665?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15591819#comment-15591819 ]

Can you use Solr's EnumField?  If so; that'd do it.  But it's a solution that requires declaring manually up front what the values are -- it's not dynamic/automatic.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9665
>             Project: Solr
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>      Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public) 
>          Components: faceting
>            Reporter: Luke P Warwick

> As a person, I need facet values to be in predictable, intuitive spots so that I can quickly and easily find the values that are appropriate to me.
> Problem Statement: Today Solr has two default facet sort orders, neither of which provides predictable, intuitive facet value orders for people when the values start with numbers.  
> Goal: Address the problem where index sorts facet values how a computer would rather than how a human would.  This is very problematic for E-commerce facets like 'size' and 'tire width'
> Acceptance Criteria:
> 1. Sorts facet values numerically from lowest to highest
> 2. Works with both numeric and string fields (thus working on values that include letters... 25 mm, 30 waist, 32 Waist, 4 Petite)
> 3. If facet values don't start with a number, they are sorted alphabetically, after all values that do start with a number
> 4. If facet values are equal numerically, sort the numerically equal values alphabetically. Example: 10,10 Petite,10 Tall,12, Petite, 12 Tall
> 5. Integers and Floats are supported (even if string field)
> Examples:
> Women's Pants Sizes:
> 8
> 8 Tall
> 10
> 10 Petite
> 10 Tall
> 12
> 12 Tall
> 14 Petite
> 26 Waist
> 28 Waist
> 30 Waist
> One Size
> Bike Wheel Sizes:
> 20 Inches
> 24 Inches
> 26 Inches
> 27 Inches
> 27.5 Inches
> 27.5+ Inches
> 29 Inches
> 650c
> 700c
