Use extractField to extract document id field

See original GitHub issue

I’ve found that using a document structure with an id that is nested, like this for example where tracker.id is the document id:

{
  tracker : {
    id : 'documentId',
    ...
  },
  asset : { ... }
}

is not possible. I’m not sure if there are other considerations preventing this, but it seems as if using extractField to extract the idField in addition to regular fields might solve the issue. I would like to avoid changing the document structure if possible.

Hi @mquinn-leverege , this issue is resolved by this commit, now the ID field is consistent with the other fields, and its extraction can be customized with extractField.

This change is already released as part of version v2.5.0. This should solve your case, so I will close this issue, but feel free to comment if not.

PS: It could be nice to create a expo gallery in the documentation or github wiki to link projects using minisearch so people could look at real-life/production examples.
