Support `groupBy` in `hybrid` search queries #3408

Closed danielknode closed 1 month ago

danielknode commented 1 year ago

Using groupBy within a Get query to back out to a higher "Document" granularity when doing searches is an extremely helpful concept that drastically simplifies crazy client-side code. However, right now, hybrid search is not supported with groupBy. It is limited to near<Media> searches. From my perspective, hybrid searches are almost always superior to vector searches. So this causes a situation where users need to choose which feature is more valuable to them since they are mutually exclusive.

Feature request: Add support for using groupBy for hybrid searches.

+1. In version 1.21.2, this combination was erroring out. In 1.21.4, there is no error but looks like groupBy is ignored when combined with hybrid.
