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 dreams", :num_docs

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 =

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 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},

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'' Ferret::Search::Sort.new Ferret::Search::Sort.new( [

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

Hello All, I am having an issue with AAF and sorting results of a search. Right now, I have results being split onto pages of 10. The results are being sorted alphabetically, but not across multiple pages - it''s just sorting the 10 it pulls down on each page. I noticed another post from April regarding this same issue (http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/62993#66934) where the issue was

Hi, I''m having some trouble with ferret search_each. I''m posting rails'' script/console output, so I guess you can decrypt it: >> res = [] => [] >> index.search_each(''name: a*'') do |doc, score| ?> res << doc >> end => 50 >> res.size => 10 >> I''m guessing the ''=>50''

Hi .. I tried to build some query objects to get some documents from my index.. without success.. Is something wrong here? q = Ferret::Search::BooleanQuery.new q1 = Ferret::Search::TermQuery.new(:type, "movie") q2 = Ferret::Search::TermQuery.new(:name, "Indiana") q.add_query(q1, :should) q.add_query(q2, :should) Indexer.index.search_each(q) do |doc, score| puts doc end 0

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

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

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?

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 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

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.

I''m trying to sort 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. This just returns results in the same order as a search without a sort: sort_fields = [] sort_fields << Ferret::Search::SortField.new("ferret_created_at",:reverse => :true)

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): /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1647:in `current_server'' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1709:in

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 I''m using the acts_as_ferret plugin. below

Hi, I seem to be having trouble getting more than 10 hits from Index#search_each since upgrading to 0.10.2 (ie, this was working in 0.9.4). Maybe a bug, as the #search_each doesn''t seem to use the options parameter any more ?

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)
