search for: sortfield

Hi I think this is a very easy question but here goes: I want to sort my results by a boolean field and then by score, I thought this would be a default configuration but apparently not. sort_fields = [] sort_fields << Ferret::Search::SortField.new(:sponsored, :reverse => :true) that is my current code, how do iu alter it so that the results are then sorted by highest score first? thanks very much. regards caspar -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Along with the contents of the documents in my index, I have stored the date they were added. I want to search for keywords in the index but have the results be sorted by their date rather than their relevance to the keywords. How would I do this in ferret? Thanks, Carl

The document describes search(query, options) sort: An array of SortFields describing how to sort the results. I have created index with two fields: ''file'' and ''content'' When I give SortField name as ''file'' while searching, it results into error. The exact command given by me: index.search_each("sleepless AND...

i have been trying to get this to work for a while now. my controller is sort = [ Ferret::Search::SortField::SCORE_REV ] @results = Record.multi_search(params[:search_terms], [ Link, Post, Event ], {:limit => :all, :sort => sort }) and in my view i just render a conglomeration of the appropriate partials for each model. it seems that no matter what i do, i can''t get the results to be o...

I am getting strange results when I reverse sort a query. I am sorting by date, but it doesn''t seem to be related to dates (I have tried just integers). I also paginate the results. Items in the result set are sometimes duplicated and the not ordered at all. When I try a non-reverse sort I don''t see duplicates and the ordering is correct. Any ideas what is going on? Thanks

I''m trying to sort by score but it seems like SortField::SortType::SCORE is 0 instead of a SortType. A test case is attached. Without the C extensions the test passes, so I guess it''s a bug in them. Should I be using it without the extensions? Because if that''s the case I have some other bugs to report.

...ort my search results by Date, in descending order. I''ve done quite a bit of reading through the forums here, and I''ve tried two different suggestions.

I''m having problems sorting on untokenized fields. I have one field that sorts fine, but there are others that seem to sort on a different field.

...e called Studicious (http://stu.dicio.us). We have been using Ferret from the beginning, and recently added acts_as_ferret and sorting to the system. As you can see if you try the search, sorting is not working as expected. I am using this code (w/ find_by_content): :sort => Ferret::Search::SortField.new(:school_sort, :reverse => false) :school_sort is an untokenized field with otherwise default settings.

...encing strange behavior when sorting on score. My app was working as expected before the switch. Both before and after the switch, my app sorts properly on other fields, such as date. For sorting on score, I am using the following option find_by_contents option: :sort => Ferret::Search::SortField::SCORE Before switching to DRb, this worked very well.

The acts_as_ferret documentation says find_by_content returns an instance of SearchResults, but I see this error when I try to use the results. undefined method `total_hits'' for []:Array Here is the link to the documentation: http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/rdoc/classes/FerretMixin/Acts/ARFerret/ClassMethods.html#M000010 But here is the actual code: result =

Hey .. I''m using ferret to index various objects and i''m create a Ferret::Document for each of these objects. Indexing and searching is working fine. Each of these Ferret::Documents has a ''relevance'' field, storing an integer, how relevant this object is for the search. The ''relevance'' is in the range of 1..10 Now i would like to

I had sort-by-date working almost perfectly with my app. It was behaving as expected for most data, but had a few hiccups with certain data. I investigated and discovered that the correct data was storing this in my ferret index: "1999-10-18 00:00:00" and the incorrect data was storing this: "Mon Oct 18 00:00:00 EDT 1999" (oops...) So I of course had to fix the

I have the acts_as_ferret plugin installed. Everything searches great, but I would like to limit the results (i.e. by ''end_date'') and sort them (by ''end_date''). ''end_date'' is a valid column in my "posts" table. Here''s the code I have already: @posts = Post.find_by_contents(params[:query]) params[:query] comes from a form. I
