similar to: cFerret nearing completion

Hello list, I know this is a little OT but I wonder how I would go about using cFerret directly through C/C++ for indexing. Right now I do index = Index::Index.new(:path => ''/path/to/index'') index << {:title => "Programming Ruby", :content => "blah blah blah"} How would I do this in C/C++ against cFerret? Thanks! //Henrik

I''m noticing some long delays when optimizing my index. I know this is terribly inefficient, but in order to make sure that my ActiveRecord model is in sync with my index, I''m optimizing after every new record that I store, like so: class Resume < ActiveRecord::Base include Ferret has_and_belongs_to_many :users SEARCH_INDEX = File.dirname(__FILE__) +

Hi Dave, I''ve been reading this post below back in December 2005. Is it possible to set :key to :id in cFerret like suggested below?

Hello, I have different results from these two softwares for a simple binomial GLM problem. >From Genmod in SAS: LogLikelihood=-4.75, coeff(intercept)=-3.59, coeff(x)=0.95 >From glm in R: LogLikelihood=-0.94, coeff(intercept)=-3.99, coeff(x)=1.36 Is there anyone tell me what I did wrong?

During our last week of Ferret / aaf usage (also our first week of Ferret / aaf usage), I have received 8 messages stating that our app encountered a Ferret::QueryParser::QueryParseException. For instance: A Ferret::QueryParser::QueryParseException occurred in foo#search: Error occurred in src/q_parser.y:279 - yyerror couldn''t parse query "com -- 404". Error message

Hey all, After dabbling with ActiveSearch, we''re coming back around to take another look at Ferret. ActiveSearch slowed to a crawl after indexing about 20k documents, each 20 lines each. This time we may attempt to create multiple Ferret indexes (isolating each organization''s data individually), since we eventually could have upwards of 20k documents for some

Hello, I am trying to escape words for searching i.e., "hello". The key here is that the two L''s on "hello" are actually vertical bars. Is there a special function in Ferret or anywhere for that matter that will do the escaping of the Ferret special characters? Thanks in advance, Benjamin

Hi, the last couple of days I''m trying to index some txt files. Once indexed I have the habit of checking the contents of the Ferret index with Luke. But everytime I tried to open the index I got a ''read past EOF'' error. I managed to get it down to the way Ferret handles non-ascii characters. I have one txt file with the following content ''a o b c''

The current full-text search will return the AND collection results,for example,if we use Article.search("aa bb"),then the articles that include "aa" and "bb" in the fields will be returned,how to return the articles that include "aa" OR "bb" effectly? A stumb method is to setup two queries respectly and collect them together with remove the

Hi, I am experiencing very poor performance when updating my index. For example, to update the index for 10 documents, it is taking 3 to 4 seconds. My index is currently very small... with probably less than 100 docs in it. I have created my index as follows: GIFT_INDEX = Index::Index.new(:path => "#{index_dir}/gift", :key => ''id'', :auto_flush => true)

I''d like to use ferret to build an imap indexer and search utility, but want to check first to see if anyone else is working on this and offer my help. Anyone? Also, if you could provide any helpful pointers on indexing directories via ferret, it''ll be very much appreciated. I''m a lucene nuby. Thanks! John -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m building a new index from scratch based on a number of documents stored in a database loaded using my Rails env (using Ruby Ferret 0.9x (installed today with Gem) on Windows). At first everything goes nice but after a number of documents it starts to go slower and slower until it grinds to a halt (at least feels like it). Am I doing something wrong? Is there some way to work

FYI, I tried installing ferret on my freebsd virtual server and got this: retango# gem install ferret --include-dependencies Attempting local installation of ''ferret'' Local gem file not found: ferret*.gem Attempting remote installation of ''ferret'' Updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org Building native extensions. This could take a while...

I am having some great trouble keeping my Ferret indexer for ActiveRecord working. First the get_field_names disappears (now back), then I am collectig some major trouble with locking. Same thing here: exception 6 not handled: Could not obtain write lock when trying to write index A snippet like this just deadlocks retrying endlessly: begin @ferret_index << doc

Hello, I am planning to build a bigger Internet platform and actually evaluating Java EE and Rails. I have a lot of Java experience and I am quite new to Rails. After playing some weeks with Rails I am sure that it is a mature web framework and I really like the productivtity of Rails. One of the key advantages is that new developers will understand this platform much quicker than all the Java

Hi again, I''m using ferret to index source code - DamageControl will allow users to search for text in source code. Currently I''m using the default index with no custom analyzer (I''m using the StandardAnalyzer). Do you have any recommendations about how to write an analyzer that will index source code in a more ''optimal'' way? I.e. disregard common

I''m trying to generate a rails pagination helper for some ferret search results, and I need to know how many total matches there are to my search query. I don''t see an obvious way of finding this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Carl Youngblood

Hi, I''m using the StandardAnalyzer to build an index, and passing in Documents that have Fields that contain large tokens (22+ characters) interpersed with normal English words. This seems to cause the IndexWriter to slow to a crawl. Is this a known issue, or am I doing something wrong? If this is a known issue I don''t have any problem just not indexing tokens longer than a
