Sorting of results returned by autocomplete

[Vikash_Verma]

Hi,

I have a simple index having following mapping:

{
 
  "mappings": {
    "_doc": {
      "dynamic": "strict",
      "properties": {
        "coordinates": {
          "type": "geo_point"
        },
        "suggest": {
          "analyzer": "standard",
          "search_analyzer": "standard",
          "type": "completion"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

After inserting documents I want to retrieve results which are sorted based on the coordinates property.

I run following query to do the same:

{
    "suggest": {
        "region-suggest": {
            "prefix": "taj",
            "completion": {
                "field": "suggest",
                "size": 100,
                "fuzzy": {
                    "fuzziness": 0
                }
            }
        },
        "sort": [
            {
                "_geo_distance": {
                    "coordinates": [
                        {
                            "lat": 12.92,
                            "lon": 77.67
                        }
                    ],
                    "order": "desc"
                }
            }
        ]
    }
}

What I observer is there is no impact of sort field present in query.

Am I doing something wrong or sorting is not applied to autocomplete.

I did try geo context but it seems geo context can be used for filtering/boosting. I don't want any filtering. It's just that I want all the results having sorted based on the coordinate.

Any help would be appreciated.
