SortField for SortedSetDocValues.

A SortedSetDocValues contains multiple values for a field, so sorting with this technique "selects" a value as the representative sort value for the document.

By default, the minimum value in the set is selected as the sort value, but this can be customized. Selectors other than the default do have some limitations to ensure that all selections happen in constant-time for performance.

Like sorting by string, this also supports sorting missing values as first or last, via setMissingValue(Object).

Params:

Creates a sort, possibly in reverse, specifying how the sort value from the document's set is selected.
Params:

  • reverse – True if natural order should be reversed.
  • selector – custom selector type for choosing the sort value from the set.

    NOTE: selectors other than Type.MIN require optional codec support.
