Hi. First of all I would like to say "thank you" to David for its really valuable work. Ferret is a great project and it have great future. Well now is my questions as beginner in Ferret. How to remove ALL documents from index. Remove files is not a solution. I am interesting in something like index.remove_index or something like this. What is a usual way of doing it?? What is the

Hey Dave, I just contributed $100 to the ferret donation box. My project is earning no money yet (but hopefully will), for now I hope this helps you out and covers me for asking stupid questions ;). To get a distance sorted output, I am passing an array of the id field from a ferret search through to mysql in a custom select statement. SELECT ... id IN (#{ids.join(",")}) This has

I''m running: ferret (0.10.9) ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i386-mswin32] on Windows XP(SP2) When I create an index as follows: field_infos = FieldInfos.new(:store => :yes, :term_vector => :no, :index => :yes) field_infos.add_field(:id, :index => :untokenized) field_infos.add_field(:subject) field_infos.add_field(:author) field_infos.add_field(:tags, :store => :no) index =

Hi, I have some questions about searching with Ferret. I have a user index with first_name, last_name and full_name (which is just first plus last with a space). Here are a couple of questions: 1) If I store the fields tokenized, it appears as though queries are case-insensitive. However, for untokenized, the query is case-sensitive. How can I make the untokenized searches case-insensitive?

Hi, I''m trying out the example (more or less) straight from the tutorial: doc = Document.new doc << Field.new("id", "a", Field::Store::NO, Field::Index::UNTOKENIZED) doc << Field.new("title", "b", Field::Store::YES, Field::Index::UNTOKENIZED) doc << Field.new("data", "c",

Hi .. I tried to exclude certain objects from my search, by adding appropriate term queries .. i = Ferret::Index::Index.new i.field_infos.add_field(:type, :index => :untokenized, :term_vector => :no) i << {:type => "Movie", :name => "Indiana" } i << {:type => "Movie", :name => "Forrest" } i << {:type =>

Hey guys, I''ve just released Ferret 0.10.7. It is still in beta but we are getting closer and closer to a 1.0 release. The main changes in this release are better handling of fields by the QueryParser. You can now give the QueryParser a list of fields that are tokenized so that only those fields will be analyzed in the QueryParser. This means that you can search untokenized fields for

Hi, following the discussion about acts_as_ferret on the Rails mailinglist, there was an issue about transactions, which could result in beind the database and ferret out of sync. I have taken a different approach from acts_as_ferret trying to resolve the transaction problem. Instead of adding things to the ferret index in the model, I have added it in the controller. I have only the create part

I''m getting "uninitialized constant UNTOKENIZED" when I try to do something like the following: class Url < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret :fields => {''name'' => {}, ''description'' => {}, ''url'' => {:index => Ferret::Document::Field::Index::UNTOKENIZED},

Gents, does this definition will allow me to search inside title, sub_title and url and sort by score, rank_sort, last_updated_at_sort ? acts_as_ferret :fields => { :title => {:boost => 2, :store => :yes}, :sub_title => {:store => :yes}, :url => {:store => :yes}, :rank_sort =>

I am indexing over 10,000 rows of data, it is very slow when it is indexing the 100,1000,10000 row, and now it is over 1 hour passed on the row 10,000. how to make it faster? here is my code: ================== doc = Document.new doc << Field.new("id", t.id, Field::Store::YES, Field::Index::UNTOKENIZED) doc << Field.new("title", t.title,

I am apart of a team that runs a student site 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)

Hi, I have a model class like so: class Candidate < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :name @@index = FerretConfig::INDEX def self.after_destroy puts "Ferret: after_destroy called" @@index.query_delete("+id:#{self.id} +ferret_class:#{self.class.name}") optimize_index end end But when I delete a record, the after_destroy is never called.

Ferret 0.9.3 Ruby 1.8.2 NOT storing file contents in the index. Only indexing first 25k of each file. Very large data set (1 million files, 350 Gb) Code based on snippet from David Balmain''s forum posts. After 6 hours, Ferret bails out with Ruby "exceeds max file size".

Hi, I''ve discovered ferret and aaf this evening, I''ve just done some tests and it seems perfect for my needs. I''m indexing text data (title, description, etc) and also ethernet hardware addresses (MAC). Sorry if that sounds trivial but I can''t find the way to correctly index and achieve correct searches on MAC addresses. If I do something like this: index =

I have an index in which I want different records to be accessible to different users. I think I can do this by adding a "users" field to each record in the index and narrow down my queries to only those records matching the current user''s userid. I have the userids separated by commas. What would be the right way to query for a certain user? I have to make sure that I

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. Here''s the index description: acts_as_ferret :remote=>true,:fields=>{:name=>{:boost=>2},:name_for_sort=>{:index => :untokenized}, :city=>{:boost=>2}, :city_for_sort=>{:index=>:untokenized},

Is there a way to search a ferret index and have it only display exact matches? I read in other posts that you should have an untokenized field for the exact matches, but I also use the same field for doing unexact matches too (with the stemming analyzer). Would I need a copy of this field in the index untokenized to do an exact match or is there any sort of flag or something I could pass to
