I am using elasticsearch 2.4 with java transport client. I want to fetch results of a 'field1' after multiplying it with value '0.3', sort it and then fetch first 10 results. I do the following but the multiplication doesn't happen. I rather see the original values of field1.

SearchResponse response = client.prepareSearch(index)  
.setSearchType(SearchType.DFS\_QUERY\_THEN\_FETCH)  
.setQuery(QueryBuilders.matchAllQuery()) // Query  
.setQuery(QueryBuilders.scriptQuery(new Script("doc['field1'].value \* 0.3", ScriptType.INLINE, "groovy", null)))  
.setPostFilter(QueryBuilders.rangeQuery("time").from("now-3d")) // Filter  
.addSort("field1", SortOrder.DESC)  
.setFrom(0).setSize(10)  
.setExplain(true)  
.execute()  
.actionGet();

Thanks for the help!
