es_extend and promise

[tero]

Would it be possible to support promises with es_extend's value? I would like to add related document count with a query like:

{
    es_extend: {
      commentCount: {
        es_type: 'integer',
        es_value: document =>
          mongoose.models.Comments
            .count({ 'post.id': document._id })
            .exec(),
      },
    },
  },

Reason for this is that I would like show comment count along the post list. Also, I'm interested if there is a better way to achieve the same end result.

No idea when I'll have bandwidth, but I'll keep it in mind...

I think commentCount should be a regular Number field you update each time you receive a new comment from your controller.

@michelem09 your url on your github account doesn't work (http://www.michelem.org)

I tried with some online tools and it seems to work fine, but thanks I will update the http(s)

I'm redirected to https://www.michelem/ without the .org
