Hello, I'm new in elasticsearch and I have a question.  
How can I do paging for nested object and is it possible? (I need to get  
comments with paging)

_My mappping:_  
{  
"test": {  
"mappings": {  
"completion": {  
"properties": {  
"suggest": {  
"type": "string",  
"index": "not\_analyzed"  
}  
}  
},  
"post": {  
"properties": {  
"comments": {

```
              "type": "nested",
              "properties": {
                 "created_time": {
                    "type": "date",
                    "format": "dateOptionalTime"
                 },
                 "id": {
                    "type": "string",
                    "index": "not_analyzed"
                 },
                 "text": {
                    "type": "string"
                 }
              }
           },
           "created_time": {
              "type": "date",
              "format": "dateOptionalTime"
           },
           "text": {
              "type": "string"
           },
           "thumbnail": {
              "type": "string",
              "index": "not_analyzed"
           },
           "title": {
              "type": "string"
           }
        }
     }
  }

```

}  
}
