In a query, sortBy cannot be used without where

[edas]

In a queryConnect, I tried to use client.find(doctype).sortBy({title: 'desc'})

Expected result: The list of documents sorted by title in descending order

Alternative expected result: An exception stating that this syntax isn't supported

Actual result: No document, no exception

Workaround: Using client.find(doctype).where({}).sortBy({title: 'desc'})

Possibly, the sortBy clause is only usable if we have a where clause. This should propably considered as a bug. In any case, the query shouldn't be silently ignored

Would you be interested in trying to solve this bug ?

J'avais contourné le problème sur le moment. Il ne me parait pas urgent à partir du moment où il est référencé et où le contournement est simple

Just tried, with the new syntax: client.query(Q('io.cozy.files').sortBy([{'name':'asc'}]) and I got a couch error saying that the selector is missing. So there is no more silent here, just a database that needs a selector to perform a sort.
