there was a bug where if the circle described by the point
distance query crossed the poles, then we incorrectly built
a box around it. this resulted in incorrect searh results.
- added readme pointing back to lucene origins
- improved documentation of exported methods in geo package
- improved test coverage to 100% on geo package
- added support for parsing geojson style points
- removed some duplicated code in the geo bounding box searcher
New field type GeoPointField, or "geopoint" in mapping JSON.
Currently structs and maps are considered when a mapping explicitly
marks a field as type "geopoint". Several variants of "lon", "lng", and "lat"
are looked for in map keys, struct field names, or method names.
New query type GeoBoundingBoxQuery searches for documents which have a
GeoPointField indexed with a value that is inside the specified bounding box.
New query type GeoDistanceQuery searches for documents which have a
GeoPointField indexed with a value that is less than or equal to the
specified distance from the specified location.
New sort by method "geo_distance". Hits can be sorted by their distance
from the specified location.
New geo utility package with all routines ported from Lucene.
New FilteringSearcher, which wraps an existing Searcher, but filters
all hits with a user-provided callback.
