Sorting by score
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.

Ordering results by something other than relevance
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

Possible bug when creating a Ferret::Search::Sort object?
I may have run across a bug in Ferret: if throws a segmentation fault
when I try to create a Sort object using the default fields (SCORE and
DOC_ID), but setting reverse to true.
Here''s the minimal example:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require ''rubygems''
require ''ferret''

Another web app using Ferret
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)

Ferret DRB - can add/edit index, but can''t search
I''m trying to use the Ferret DRB server to avoid concurrency issues when
using multiple mongrels. I can successfully add and edit data on my
index via the DRB server, however, when I search the index, I get the
following error:
DRb::DRbConnError (DRb::DRbServerNotFound):

Updating to the bleeding edge version of Ferret
Hey guys,
It has occurred to me that a lot of people need some of the fixes I
make to Ferret ASAP and don''t like having to wait to long for the gem.
On the other hand, it is a bit of a pain to download and install from
subversion because then you need to uninstall when the next gem comes
out. So I thought I may as well put some instructions out as to how
you can build your own Ferret gem

Sorting the Result
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:

Ferret 0.3.0 released
Hi folks,
This latest release of Ferret has a lot of improvements. There have
been substantial improvements to performance. Try it for yourself to
see. I won''t be publishing any numbers just yet. I will say though
that it''s still about 2-4 times slower than Lucene with the extension
installed. There is also some performance improvements in the pure
Ruby version if you

Ferret just got faster.
Hey guys,
Sorry I haven''t been around for the last few days. I''ve just finished
a coding marathon fixing up some of the performance problems in
Ferret. If you don''t know what I''m talking about there has been a
problem with Filters and Sorts on large indexes. Well, I think I''ve
fixed the problem.

acts_as_ferret rebuilding issue with ferret 0.11.0
Hi,
There is a problem with the way that acts_as_ferret verifies the index
is valid. In ensure_index_exists it looks for a file named ''segments''.
With the 0.11.0 release of ferret there is no file with this name. On my
dummy application I have a ''segments.gen'' and ''segments_2y''.
Changing the test to segments.gen fixes the problem that the

Reverse sorting
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

Bus Error with Ferret 0.9.3 using the BooleanQuery api
Hey guys,
I''ve been trying out ferret 0.9.3 on my powerbook this weekend and I''ve
been triggering ''bus errors'' when using the Query API. If I
programmatically build up strings, it works just fine.
There''s some more information available in the trac ticket

undefined method `add'' for Ferret::Search::BooleanQuery
Up to now in my ferret development I have been using simple
single-word strings as my search queries. I just now am trying to
increase the complexity of my queries. When I was passing a single
word with no spaces in my index searches, like so:
count = index.search_each(''testing'') do |d, s|

end
everything worked fine. But now when I do something like this:

sorting with booleans
Hi i have a column in my ferret model called sponsored. It is a boolean
and i want to order the results by sponsored and date registered. At the
moment it is not managing to sort the booleans.
I tried declaring this in my model but it seems to have had no effect.
def false.<=>(o) o ? -1 : 0 end
def true.<=>(o) !o ? 1 : 0 end

Ferret 0.9.0-alpha (port of Apache Lucene to pure ruby)
Hi Folks,
I''ve just released version 0.9.0. This latest version of Ferret is an
alpha release. I have removed the old c extension and Ferret is now
running on a fully ported C library. This has allowed some huge
performance improvements both with regard to memory and CPU usage.
There will probably be a few portability issues to start with. It has
been developed on Linux so it should

Compilation of ferret C-extension under Windows.
Hi, David.
I have recently fixed ferret C sources and successfully compile extension
with MSVC.Net The problem was that MS compiler is more stricter that GCC and
require that all variables were declared before using. There was ~30 such
declaration. I have fixed them all.
But I am not sure that it works because tests failed with following error
both on clean and patched versions. So seems that it
