Hi All, Hope all is going well. I''m having trouble with the following code creating an in memory index reader - it seems to be attempting to read from a file regardless. Here''s the simple code: require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' a = Ferret::Index::Index.new r = Ferret::Index::IndexReader.new(nil) Running the code on my OS X machine

Hi All, Hope all is going well. I''ve got a few views that create some content using ''content_for'' blocks <% content_for :blah do %> ..... <% end %> Has anyone worked out a way to be able to access the html that''s generated inside those blocks? Since they''re not part of the view, have_tag('''') seems to miss them,

Hello, Has anyone already come up with a set of shared behaviours that someone could leverage when adhering to a CRUD concept, with respect to controllers? Relatedly, it would be nice if there were a way to share generalized behaviour specs. -Chris

Hi All, Anyone noticed that using the newer link_to syntax in edge currently fails with mocked objects in view specs or helpers. eg. if you have something like the following in your view (or equivalent in a helper): <%= link_to @dog.name, @dog %> as opposed to the current 1.2 syntax: <%= link_to @dog.name, dog_path(@dog) %> Using a mock_model as the ''dog''

First of all hi, I''m new to the list, and rather new to rspec as will probably show in myquestion. I have tried installing rspec and rspec_on_rails as plugs both using "script/install" and "piston import" commands using the "current release install instructions" here [1]. However, there doesn''t seem to be any mention of the rspec_resource

Hey guys, Now that the Lucy[1] project has Apache approval and is about to begin, the onus is no longer on Ferret to strive for Lucene compatability. (We''ll be doing that in Lucy). So I''m starting to think about ways to improve Ferret''s API. The first part that needs to be improved is the Document API. It''s annoying having to type all the attributes to

I''m wondering if ferret has any built-in search/replace mechanism that I might be able to use to highlight the query data in each search result. The reason I think this would be a good idea is that I could end up having to practically duplicate the ferret query parser just to interpret the query so that I can figure out how to highlight the keywords in the search results. Just in case

Hi, I''m currently trying to set up a solution involving multiple servers using the same index over nfs. The problem is that from what I have seen, ferret doesn''t support multiple processes writing to the same index. Using a DRb service is not an option since this would create a single point of failure. I tried using Ferret::Store::FSDirectory to create a write lock on the the

I''m trying to use Ferret to do fuzzy searches. If I use fuzzy search for just one word, it works fine: index.search(''name:gogle~0.4'') However, if I try to use a phrase, it doesn''t work: index.search(''name:"gogle search engine"~0.4'') On the other hand, I could do: index.search(''name:gogle~0.4 AND

I am a bit of a rails and rspec noob. I am trying to use rspec in conjunction with CruiseControlrb. When I run a cruise build having spec errors, the build does not indicate a failure. I have tried to track down why this is the case, and my best guess is that the spec task is kicking off the spec via a ruby() method in rake, and that ruby method does not propagate my spec failure back to

Hi all, I'm trying to build a little voicemail server based on asterisk here, using Asterisk's "Commedian Mail" application. Unfortunately, I'd expect some people to have trouble using the English prompts that come with asterisk. However, I can't imagine I'm the first person who has this problem, and Commedian Mail seems to support multilingual prompts fine, it's

Just a quick note for future reference - at least for me, ferret won''t work on Ruby 1.8.4. gem install ferret Successfully installed ferret-0.11.4-mswin32 ruby -v ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-mswin32] irb irb(main):001:0> require ''ferret'' A windows error message box appears - ruby.exe - Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point rb_w32_write could not be

Hi, We have an index of around 1M web pages as part of our web app. The app uses ferret by way of RDig to perform searches. We have noticed anecdotally that some searches don''t work the way we thought they should, as if documents were missing from the index. Yesterday we came upon a concrete instance of this. Our documents have several fields, one of which is called :keywords and

Hi I''m considering using Ferret in v2 of Weft QDA, a wxruby desktop application for textual analysis in social science. Ferret seems a very impressive package that meets and exceeds my requirements, but I can''t find how to retrieve specific details about the results. I''d like to be able to run fairly simple queries. I then need to look at each term match, and get

I have this model: class Post < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret :fields => { :title => {:boost => 2}, :description => {}, :url => {}, :rank_sort => {:index => :untokenized_omit_norms, :term_vector => :no},

I have a lot of crashes when I try to use term vectors. Here''s an example, which crashes pretty consistently. This problem seems to be somewhat sensitive to platform... people on other OS''s and ruby versions have reported no error. I have seen this with ferret 0.10.13 and 0.10.14 on debian stable using ruby 1.8.2, but I have observed the same problem on various other systems as

This program reliably crashes for me (usually a segfault): require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' reader=Ferret::Index::IndexReader.new ARGV fields=reader.field_infos.fields reader.max_doc.times{|n| fields.each{|field| reader.term_vector(n,field) } unless reader.deleted?(n) print "."; STDOUT.flush } As you can see, it just goes through

Hi All, Hope all is going well. After being knocked out with the flu for a week I''ve been able to make some progress with porting the lucene highlighter to ferret. I''ve got a draft version available for perusal at: http://crafterm.net/ruby/highlighter/highlighter-ruby-0.1.tar.gz The port is pretty much a complete copy of the Java version at:

Hi, there. I need some help. Is there a way to count frequencies of terms in a document on Ferret? I know that Ferret has IndexReader#terms_docs_for method which counts all documents. I need to count frequencies of terms in a specific document. Some way?? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I want to compare two documents in the index (i.e. retrieve the cosine similarity/score between two documents term-vector''s). Is this possible using the standard Ferret functionality? Thanks in advance, Jeroen Bulters -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
