What I'm trying to do is to sort mongoid geo_near(or within_circle) max_distance results by distance because I don't know why but it doesn't do that by default.
I have mongoid_geospatial, mongoid_spacial and rgeo in my Rails gem file. I know mongoid_spacial has this ability but I could not use it and it caused problems with gmaps4rails.
I'm trying on mongoid_geospatial(which uses mongoid libraries) with no success and I could not find any resource except this one https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18633636/mongodb-aggregate-geonear-maxdistance but I don't know how to convert mongo that to mongoid.
Any one had an experience on sorting geo_near or within_circle in mongoid? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
The code in my Controller
searchterm = session[:categoryid].to_s
radius = session[:distance].to_f / 10
@places = Provider.all.where(:category.to_s => /.*#{searchterm}.*/)
.geo_near([ session[:latitude].to_f,session[:longitude].to_f ]).max_distance(radius)
#@places = Provider.all.where(:category.to_s => /.*#{searchterm}.*/)
#.within_circle(location: [[ session[:latitude].to_f,session[:longitude].to_f ], radius ])
#.sort(:servicescore.desc).sort(:pricescore.desc)
The code in my model

EDIT ON QUESTION
I've tried almost anything related without success. Read mongo and mongoid geo_near documentation. It does comment on storing location [lon, lat] order. I've tried both [lon, lat] and [lat, long] both when saving the provider and for the center location. Tried spherical geo_near and within_circle too. Still without success. Geo_near returns my results incorrectly ordered as seen on the map above and on the list below. There should be something I'm missing but can't find it.
The red parts are the "geo_near_distance" output results, the list is sorted according to those but they are wrong as seen on the map. The green calculation is jquery code I've been using that returns correct distances(though cannot use in controller).
There should be something I'm missing. Can anyone spot that?
here is my latest code:
Provider.rb
field :location, :type => Array # [lat,lng]
index({ location: "2d" }, { min: -180, max: 180 })
spatial_index :location
Providers_controller
center = [session[:longitude].to_f, session[:latitude].to_f]
radious = 100
searchterm = session[:categoryid].to_s
radius = session[:distance].to_f / 10
@places = Provider.all.where(:category.to_s => /.*#{searchterm}.*/)
.geo_near(center).max_distance(radious)#.spherical
#.near(location: center)
#.within_circle( location: [center,radius] )
#.sort(:geo_near_distance.desc)
#.geo_near([ session[:latitude].to_f,session[:longitude].to_f ]).max_distance(100).spherical
#.unit("km")
#.geo_near([ session[:latitude].to_f,session[:longitude].to_f ], max_distance: radius, unit: "km".to_sym, spherical: true).sort_by!{|r| r.geo[:distance] }
#.geo_near([ session[:latitude].to_f,session[:longitude].to_f ]).max_distance(radius)
#.sort(:geo_near_distance)
JQuery for the green part
var p1 = new LatLon(Geo.parseDMS($('#lat1_{{id}}').val()), Geo.parseDMS($('#lon1_{{id}}').val()));
var p2 = new LatLon(Geo.parseDMS($('#lat2_{{id}}').val()), Geo.parseDMS($('#lon2_{{id}}').val()));
var new_number = parseFloat(p1.distanceTo(p2)).toFixed(2);
$('#result-distance_{{id}}').html(new_number+' km');
