Hi all, Im a newbie to ferret.I have installed the act_as_ferret gem and i actually want to search for some content in the model,but per user. My model has data,user_id.So within the data column i have to serach for a word if it exists for a given user. So can i achieve that ? presently i know that it just searches the "data" column irrespective of the user given. Can someone help me

In my environment.rb I say the following: MyModel.disable_ferret puts MyModel.ferret_enabled? The console works as expected: script/console false >> MyModel.ferret_enabled? => false I can then edit an instance, ferret remains disabled and the changes are not immediately indexed. However, when I start mongrel Ferret is initially disabled, but then somehow becomes enabled again

hello, I am actually indexing thousands of 1ko text documents using ferret and acts_as_ferret, and i face performance problems. I takes me hours to index 20 000 1ko text documents. Methology used : I create and object, fulfill it with the text, and save it. So it is automaticly indexed. Is there a way to make it faster ? ( remove the auto optimize option somewhere ?) Thank you if you have any

Is Ferret''s SVN repository down? I''m trying to get the source from svn://davebalmain.com/ferret, but I keep getting "Connection Refused" errors. Did the URL change, or is Ferret''s repository really down? -- Bira http://compexplicita.wordpress.com http://compexplicita.tumblr.com

We''re running Ferret and acts_as_ferret in our production environment. We have multiple mongrels talking to a single index on a separate (virtual) server over DRb. This is working ok for now, as our index updates are fairly infrequent. I''m concerned with the lack of rendundancy/scalability in this layout. Our index won''t get too big - maybe 100k indexed objects, each no

Hi all, I have indexed a huge amount of data with text from several european languages. In the index are values like Georg Friedrich H?ndel. I would like a search phrase like "Georg Friedrich Handel" to find records with the real spelling of H?ndel but it doesn''t seem to work. Can anyone give me an idea of what I need to do to make this happen. A bit lost here and

Hi, Is there any application where I can see the usage of Ferret engine(like example implementation). I have some difficulties in using it, sending query and getting the results. Thank you, Raj. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, So far as I know, while using acts_as_ferret, we should add the following declaration in the ActiveRecord model which is going to be indexed: acts_as_ferret({:fields => @@ferrect_fields}) in which @@ferrect_fields is a hash containing all the field to be indexed. This is pretty much for some simple situations. But I got a more complex situation that I want to define the fields to be

Hi there, I can''t seem to find a way to create a new ticket.

I blogged about some of the problems with aaf in production (http://www.jroller.com/BrightCandle) yesterday but inspired by the poitive response I thought I would share the perceived problems and discuss some of the potential solutions to help newcomers and make aaf work as if by magic just like Rails does. All of these problems boil down to one simple problem, running acts as ferret in a

Hello everyone, we''ve recently discovered a memory leak in the PerFieldAnalyzer. If you use the PerFieldAnalyzer (which you acutally should), you should switch to a pure ruby version of that analyzer. The C version of the Analyzer is consuming memory on every analyzing request. You can find an example script to verify the leak[1]. Furthermore we''ve added a workaround, building

I have a question about how Ferret handles intersection queries. Say I do an intersection search on two fields, so I do ''ruby author:(jared)'' (no quotes) Does Ferret do some kind of fancy index intersection to efficiently retrieve only items that meet both queries? Or does it just find all the ruby''s, then prune away everything that doesn''t match

i''m running a bunch of proxybalanced mongrels on a windows server. and since the memory consumption of all those mongrels is getting too high i wanted to set up the DRb''ed ferret server. but script/ferret_start doesn''t work and seems to be written for linux (unix) only. is there a way to run it on windows? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello. I''m the author of DataMapper (http://datamapper.org), and am trying to choose what Full-Text-Indexing engine/plugin I want to include by default.

Hello, I''ve been trying to get my head around ferret and the one thing that stumps me is how I might use Drb on a dedicated server with multiple clients using the SAME application but each with their own private database and other file assets (in an uploads directory within the app) Thank you for any suggestions, pointer etc. Also I''d be very interested in hearing from those

Thanks Stuart. I thought I had read somewhere that rebuild_index built the index in a different location and then swapped it, but after looking at the code (in local_index.rb) this doesn''t appear to be the case. That might explain why the ferret server crashes sometimes when a search takes place during a reindex. I wouldn''t be doing exactly the same thing as this but

Hi. We use FerretDrb for search. If the ferret process is down, our entire application comes down the moment we try to save a model which is indexed. Is there a way to decouple this relationship such that we can somehow resume normal operations despite ferret being down and not index the model? Thanks. Morten
