Re: Get results in multiple orders (multiple boosts)
Hello,
sorry for the late, I was out of my home.
In response to Rick:
I can't do that because:
1) each user should have multiple sort (for example user "A" can sort by date and then by category and then by name ...) .
2) the sort is not natural sort: user has a custom order for a field (for example sorting category field of user "A" could be category 10 at position 1, category 2 at position 2, category 9500 at position 3, category 40 at position 5 ...).
In response to Susheel:have you done an example?
Thanks for your response.

Re: Get results in multiple orders (multiple boosts)
Posted by Luca Dall'Osto <te...@yahoo.it.INVALID>.
Hello Rick,
I have no algorithm: user choose the order of the categories, and the sources, For example:
For Category:
- at position 0 category_id 9500.
- at position 1 category_id 10.
- at position 2 category_ud 555.
(etc...)
For Source:
- at position 0 source_id 12.
- at position 1 source_id 30.
- at position 2 source_id 3.
(etc...)
After that, user decide what kind of sort apply.
For example: fist by DATE, then by CATEGORY, then by SOURCE and then by NAME.
I have 1 array with all category Ids with correct order decided by user and another one with source Ids in correct order decided by user.
Then I have another array that specify the sort type (like example, user should ask documents ordered by DATE first, then by CATEGORY, etc... )
Natural sort order could be fine only for DATE and NAME, but for CATEGORY and SOURCE I have to use the array with ids sorted by user.
Thanks!
Luca

Hello Rick,
thanks for your answer.
Yes, I compose solr query from frontend request, but I'm not able to sort by a custom order, only by natural order (for example: sort=category desc, source desc, /*...*/ ).
How do you set a custom sort order in solr?
Thanks
