LongDistanceFeatureQuery for DoublePoint
Hello,
I was wondering if there is anything similar to the
LongDistanceFeatureQuery for DoublePoint. We are currently converting our
doubles into longs in order to use this feature but would like to switch
off of that. If nothing exists, are there any immediate challenges that
people foresee for implementing a "DoubleDistanceFeatureQuery" for
DoublePoint?

Hi Puneeth,

Doubles are always a bit more tricky due to rounding for arithmetic
operations, but this should still be doable.

Out of curiosity, what sort of data do your double fields store? This
query had been added with the idea that it would be useful for
timestamp fields in order to boost hits by recency. What is your
use-case for adding similar functionality to double fields?

Hello Adrien,
Thanks for the quick response! The doubles can be pretty much anything.
We're implementing something very similar to the Distance Feature Query
<https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-distance-feature-query.html>
in
Elastic but want it to work with doubles where the "field" can be a double
value. Users could then find a set of relevant documents with "fields" that
are closest to specified origin using this query. Would this feature be
something that we should put up a PR for in the Lucene codebase as well?

Hello,

Just wanted to bump this email again because it might have been lost since
there's been no activity on it for the past week+.
