Question

I try to sort my documents per name using elastic search & the official php client , how i can proceed ?

    $params = [
        'index' => $this->index ,
        'type' => 'videos',
        'from' => $this->uri->segment(2),
        'size' => 12,
        'body' => [
        'query' => [
        'filtered' => [
            'filter' => [
                'term' => [ 'name' => $query ] ,
                'term' => [ 'tags' => $query ]
              ]
           ]
        ]
      ]
    ];




    $data['results'] = $this->client->search($params);

I know this question is over a year old, but the answer is not easy to find on the internet, so I'll answer it anyway.
To specify the field to sort on and the order to sort in, use the following syntax:

$params['sort'] = array('updated_at:desc');

To sort on multiple fields:

$params['sort'] = array('updated_at:desc', 'user_id:asc', ...);
