Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-10320:
---------------------------------------
first, before submitting a JIRA it's a good idea to discuss something on the
user's list.
Do you have a patch you'd like to submit?
You can sort by function queries, and you can write custom function query.
Since based on something outside Solr is, by definition, custom for most
situations, you'd have to write some custom code anyway so would that do?
And the overriding concern here is speed. Every doc that has a non-zero score
will have to go through sorting. It's hard to see how going out to an
external-to-solr source for, potentially, billions of documents has to be very,
very efficient.

> There are some situations that we need to sort results based on values
> outside of Solr (say, from a separate datastore or a data analytics service
> that ranks entities based on analytic results). There is also the need to
> return results in a deterministic order but applying a dynamic chain of
> sorting and/or ranking algorithms to the result set. This chain would be
> processed as a secondary sort implementation, where ties returned from one
> sorting/ranking algorithm are passed to the next sorting/ranking algorithm in
> the chain until all ties are resolved, resulting in a deterministic result
> order. This chain should have the ability to apply sorting algorithms that
> use data found within the solr index as well as outside of the index.
