Does typesense support nested facets? Similar to something described here - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73433506/how-to-achieve-hierarchial-filter-in-facets-in-typesense

If you're using vue-instantsearch as mentioned in that post, then you can use this widget: https://www.algolia.com/doc/api-reference/widgets/hierarchical-menu/vue/ And you'd need to structure the data as described in this section: https://www.algolia.com/doc/api-reference/widgets/hierarchical-menu/vue/#requirements

sorry, not using vue. I shared that post just to show an example of hierarchy of facets.

You want to generate the type of queries that are generated when you click on the filter by categories menu in this example: https://ecommerce-store.typesense.org

So if understand correctly the hierarchy is encoded in the field value itself using

>

and the frontend is then responsible to construct the facet filters accordingly, right? I guess that should work for us.

Correct. For filtering, you'd break each level in the hierarchy out

cool, thanks!
