You need to add the $docBoost pseudo-field to the document somehow. A transformer is one way to do it. You could just add it to a SELECT statement, which is especially convienent if the boost value somehow is derrived from the data:
SELECT case when SELL_MORE_FLAG='Y' then 9999999 ELSE null END as '$docBoost', ...other fields... from some_table, etc Either way I wouldn't expect it to make the indexing be noticably slower.
