Hi Guy,
sounds like you are looking for the function score query:
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-function-score-query.html
And there maybe especially for the decay functions:
"Decay functions score a document with a function that decays depending
on the distance of a numeric field value of the document from a user
given origin. This is similar to a range query, but with smooth edges
instead of boxes."
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-function-score-query.html#_decay_functions
Have a look at all the beautiful example plots Britta created.. :)
Best regards,
Hannes

Hi,
I have documents (accommodations) stored with a numeric attribute - "number
of beds"
I'd like to be able to boost by a certain amount if that number is close to
a search query.
e.g. prefer documents with a number of beds close to what is being searched
for.
This will be added to the rest of the search criteria - is there a way to
do this? I can filter by a number within a range, but would like the
results returned to take some ordering from the closeness of the number
searched for.
Thanks
Guy
