ElasticFields.Score Query about elasticlinq HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi Liam.

ElasticLINQ does not yet support min_score (the fact it generates a silly filter is a bug). It's not difficult to add but hadn't come in as a request from anyone. I might be able to get something checked in over the next 24 hours if that helps you.

I've checked in an experimental version into dev that adds a MinScore method to the query chain, e.g.

context.Query<MyClassName>().Query(predicate).MinScore(2)

I'm considering the ElasticFields.Score property but there are a few issues there including:

1. We'd only support >= not < > <= as Elasticsearch only has min_score which is inclusive
2. Should probably only be in .Query not .Where as latter is for filtering
3. Would need to only support it as a top-level or an AND at top level

So the following would probably be the only valid syntax for using ElasticFields.Score:

context.Query<MyClassName>().Query(predicate && ElasticFields.Score >= 2);

Indeed, maybe the ElasticFields.Score property being used isn't particularly relevant given that it would only be able to be used with the '>=' operator. The MinScore method would definitely be useful for me.

+1 to the MinScore approach over supporting the raw field. Good to create a pit of success instead of a pit of failure.
