Is it possible to sort returned objects from Backand based on how near the location field of type "point" is to the querying users current location?
From the Backand docs I have only seen support for querying based on a maximum distance from a point but nothing about sorting by geo points.
I was able to create a custom query in Backand which I can hit from the Backand API. Unfortunately in order to sort on the distance of nearby users I need to calculate the distance from the current user to every other user in the database and then sort based on this. Seems very complex - a lot of calculations every time the query is called! Will probably see big performance hits as the database gets larger. Guess it answers this question, but I am hopeful still of finding a better alternative.
