Maintain order of results based on search criteria

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hello elasticsearch pioneers,

I would like the results to be in the same sequence as the query. To elaborate more about this, consider the following example. :

I have documents with ID field, which look somewhat like this :

{
  {
    "ID": 102,
    "Name": "Mark"
  },
  {
    "ID": 104,
    "Name": "Pete"
  },
  {
    "ID": 101,
    "Name": "Su"
  },
  {
    "ID": 107,
    "Name": "Kate"
  },
  {
    "ID": 106,
    "Name": "Roger"
  }
}

And my query is:

{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "should": [
        {
          "match": 
          {
            "ID": "101"
          }
        },
        {
          "match": 
          {
            "ID": "104"
          }
        },
        {
          "match": 
          {
            "ID": "107"
          }
        },
        {
          "match": 
          {
            "ID": "102"
          }
        },
        {
          "match": 
          {
            "ID": "106"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Now I'm expecting the results to be in the same order as the search criteria. i.e :

{
    "ID": 101,
    "Name": "Su"
},
{
    "ID": 104,
    "Name": "Pete"
},
{
    "ID": 107,
    "Name": "Kate"
},
{
    "ID": 102,
    "Name": "Mark"
},
{
    "ID": 106,
    "Name": "Roger"
}

Been trying to figure out a way to do this. Is it even possible? Any help appreciated.

I think the most efficient way to do it would be to run one query for each id in a multi-search call https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-multi-search.html

I now just need to figure out a way to fire multi-search using elasticsearch-php...
Thanks once again.!!
