TODO:

  • Explain how we should deal with @IndexedEmbedded/@ContainedIn

  • Explain how we should deal with sorts

Sorting#

Sorting behavior depends on the data type:

  • to sort by id, you have to use the field GenericEntity.ID_SORT

  • to sort by string, you should define an additional field with the TEXT_SORT analyzer:

	@Column
	@Fields({
		@Field(analyzer = @Analyzer(definition = HibernateSearchAnalyzer.TEXT_STEMMING)),
		@Field(name = EN_SORT, analyzer = @Analyzer(definition = HibernateSearchAnalyzer.TEXT_SORT))
	})
	@SortableField(forField = EN_SORT)
	private String en;

  • to sort by date, you don’t need an additional field BUT you need to sort using SortField.Type.LONG (starting from 0.11)

Note that, you need to add a @SortableField(forField = "fieldName") annotation for each field used for sorting.
