For example, I have index `pizzas`. And I have Bool Filter
```
"bool": {
"should": {
"toppings": [
{
"query": "Tomatoes"
},
{
"query": "Mushrooms"
}
]
}
}
```
Can ElasticSearch return match percentage for all pizzas in index, so all that have `mushrooms` XOR `tomatoes`, will return 50%, if both - 100%. And other toppings are irrelevant.
If yes, could we extend this functionality that way, so we could add for each topping weight value.
For example I'm interested in Tomatoes(50) , in Mushrooms(75) and Chili(100).
So in sum it will be 50 + 75 + 100 = 225
So Margherita has Tomatoes and Muchrooms = 125.
So this pizza match percentage should return near 56% ( 125/225).
I read ElasticSearch guide, read like hundred of times API docs, tried filters, queries, minimum\_should\_match, boost. I will really appreciate at least some direction where to search further.
Sorry if I placed my question not in right place.
Thanks.
