I am trying to perform a freetext search on all the Cq:Page and dam:Asset with the ordering being the last modified. I have created the Query for search which is as below:

1_group.p.or=true
1_group.1_type=cq:Page
1_group.2_type=dam:Asset
2_group.p.or=true
2_group.1_path=/content
2_group.2_path=/content/dam
fulltext=text
p.limit=-1

Now I need to sort the results based on last modified. But since cq:Page has property jcr:content/cq:lastModified and dam:Asset has property jcr:content/jcr:lastModified, I am unable to figure out which property should i use in the orderby field of predicate. Is there any way to form a predicate which uses different property values for pages and assets during sorting. Please let me know if we can achieve this in a single query.

Regards, Shailesh

This can be done by creating a custom AbstractPredicateEvaluator and overriding the getOrderByComparator with your own comparator. Then you would register your custom predicate evaluator for your Query by calling registerPredicateEvaluator.

In the example below, you can use whatever you'd like for the customSort.sortby property. This can be useful if your comparator handles multiple types of sorting. You can get this information from the predicate via predicate.get("sortby").

QueryBuilder builder = resourceResolver.adaptTo(QueryBuilder.class);
Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
params.put("1_group", "true");
params.put("1_group.1_type", "cq:Page");
params.put("1_group.2_type", "dam:Asset");
params.put("2_group.p.or", "true");
params.put("2_group.1_path", "/content");
params.put("2_group.2_path", "/content/dam");
params.put("fulltext", text);
params.put("p.limit", "-1");
params.put("customSort.sortby", "last-modified");
PredicateGroup pg = PredicateGroup.create(params);
Query query = builder.createQuery(pg, resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session.class));
query.registerPredicateEvaluator("customSort", new CustomSortPredicateEvaluator());
SearchResult result = query.getResult();

there is no way since they are differenet type (cq:lastModified & jcr:lastModified), Even you use SQL2 like this (SELECT p.* FROM [nt:base] AS p WHERE ISDESCENDANTNODE(p, '/content') AND ( p.[jcr:primaryType]='dam:Asset' OR p.[jcr:primaryType]='cq:Page')) there no way to use ORDER BY.

Have to use Java code for sorting. Keep your Query, get QueryResult to List and do Comparator Sort
