Description Sometimes we would like to be able to sort on objects but in relation to a given list. Except that currently, we can only sort on a property in ASC or DESC.

Example

sort("type", arrayOf("shared", "favorite", "offline")).find()

Currently Core doesn't support this type of querying. You can add a feature request there.

If you need to write code that supports this functionality you could do it at a Kotlin level by combining 3 queries and reducing the result in Kotlin itself. You can also use copyFromRealm on the output and do the computation in memory instead.

@edualonso Ok thanks for your answer, and so I created the ticket in Core. But if not, we currently sort ourselves in kotlin so it works but having this feature would simplify a lot.
