My first question: Can a scripted_field be used for searching?
Assuming it can, are there performance issues with that?

Does the ArrayList object have Map method (like Array.prototype.map in javascript)?

I've started with this:

int total = 0; for (def gift : ctx._source.Gifts) { total+=gift.Amount} return total

But I keep keep getting a null reference exception. Same thing when I tried without the ctx
