Hiya all
How can I factor recency into the relevance score? ie add a boost factor
to docs that have been created more recently.

Thats a bit tricky. The best way to provide something like that is by
elasticsearch providing you with an option to control the boosting based on
external functions/field values. I plan to add this support to
elasticsearch.

The problem with using external functions (if I understand it correctly)
is that it makes it tricky for us non-java types to use them.
I found this solution on the Solr site:

Why? You just list the function name in request parameter.

I think he means if he has to write the function himself.
A recency one could be quite easy to implement as a standard function
and probably would get a lot of use. The inverse would also make good
sense to me.

I was taking 'external functions' to mean a custom function which I need
to write in Java.
I found this solution on the Solr site: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery
while here they have a list of predefined functions, and a syntax to
string them together, which makes sense to me.
It may be that, by "external functions" Shay meant the same thing as the
Solr example, in which case, I'll shut up 
Actually, I am thinking of a nicer way to do it then just a set of
predefined functions. Writing the functions in an expression lang (like
mvel, which is fast, and has a pretty nice syntax).

While it'd be great to support custom functions, it does mean that there
is another DSL that we have to learn to make use of them.
Having a library of commonly used functions would be very useful.
clint
Sure, there will be a built in library as well.

And how about to allow custom functions in Java as plugins too, the same way
attachments plugin is done. Then anybody should be able to implement
function in Java and provide jar for.
