I'm looking to build a search across URLs that orders the results by urls that end in the search criteria. For example; across the below 3 urls: z/a/b/c; a/z/b/c; a/b/c/z searching for "z" - would result in a the order a/b/c/z; a/z/b/c; z/a/b/c searching for "a" z/a/b/c; a/b/c/z; a/z/b/c I'm wondering if elastic search - will be well suited to tackle this challenge?
