This commit fixes an issue that happens when running SCAN on a
collection that has objects with fields, causing field values
to be mismatched with their respective keys.
This only occured with json output, and is a regression from #534.
Fixes#569
This commit fixes an issue where the OUTPUT command requires
authentication when a server password has been set with
CONFIG SET requirepass. This was causing problems with clients
that use json responses, like the tile38-cli.
Fixes#564
The current KNN implementation has two areas that can be improved:
- The current behavior is somewhat incorrect. When performing a kNN
query, the current code fetches k items from the index, and then sorts
these items according to Haversine distance. The problem with this
approach is that since the items fetched from the index are ordered by
a Euclidean metric, there is no guarantee that item k + 1 is not closer
than item k in great circle distance, and hence incorrect results can be
returned when closer items beyond k exist.
- The secondary sort is a performance killer. This requires buffering
all k items (again...they were already run through a priority queue in)
the index, and then a sort. Since the items are mostly sorted, and
Go's sort implementation is a quickSort this is the worst case for the
sort algorithm.
Both of these can be fixed by applying a proper distance metric in
the index nearby operation. In addition, this cleans up the code
considerably, removing a number of special cases that applied only
to NEARBY operations.
This change implements a geodetic distance metric that ensures that
the order from the index is correct, eliminating the need for the
secondary sort and special filtering cases in the ScanWriter code.
