similar to: aaf and dynamic attrs: a bug?

Hi I am trying to use ferret; the regular search works; but when I use the find_storage_by_contents to highlight the results, I am getting the above error. Please help thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I have a user model that has a city field which is searchable using acts_as_ferret. But I can''t get it to return any result whether I use :city => {:store => :no, :index => :untokenized}, or :city => {:store => :no} in my User model''s acts_as_ferret option >>> User.find_by_contents("city:(cal poly)") =>

Hi, I have i am trying to add a search feature to a ruby on rails blog, so ive decided to use ferret. So far i have had quite a few problems with it, from following a few tutorials i didnt really understand... i am at the point where i can make a search and it returns the score of the result. I want it to also show the title of the post and i think i have implemented it correctly but it

Hi all, I cannot make aaf (rev. 220) use my custom analyzer, despite following the indications @ http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/wiki/AdvancedUsage To pinpoint the problem, I created a model + a simple analyzer with 2 stop words : "fax" and "gsm". test 1 : model.rebuild_index + model.find_by_contents("fax") # fax is a stop word. => I get a

If I disable ferret in my environment file and then run a cron job every hour to index the records that have been added/changed, do I enable Ferret just in the script that does the hourly indexing? Or do I somehow need to tell the process that runs the Ferret DRB server that it should start writing to the index again? Thanks in advance. Erik

How would I change this method in order to get highlighting working with DRb? I''ve given up on searching on Google, I''m getting no results that are actually helpful. def self.find_storage_by_contents(query, options = {}) # Get the index that acts_as_ferret created for us index = self.aaf_index.ferret_index results = [] default_options = {:limit => 10,

We would like to show a list of "most recently added terms", meaning, the results of this query: Resource.aaf_index.ferret_index.reader.terms(:summary) BUT, only returning terms from a certain set of documents (in our case, we are going to filter by creation data). Is this possible? Thanks, John

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

After all, i wanted to create my new RoR project, but I could not start it. Plz help me Here is my terminal: [renat@localhost rails]$ rails mysite create create

Hi, I am just wondering if there''s a way to get all the words from an index. Basically, all the words that have been indexed (excluding the stopwords if I''m using the stopwords analyzer, etc.) The fields I''m putting in are not :stored in the index. The idea is to implement a "did you mean?" mecanism, which is based on the content of the index, not on a

I''m using acts_as_ferret and have indexed a model with acts_as_ferret :fields => [:name, :ascii_name, :alt_names], :single_index => true. Now in the index directory more than 95.000 files are generated! The number of tuples I''m indexing is approx. 86.000. I can''t remember this from earlier ferret/acts_as_ferret versions where I''ve indexed millions of

All, I''ve come across a confusing problem when attempting to run unit tests for an application on OSX (works on Windows). I''m receiving the following error: `load_specification'': undefined method `parse'' for Time:Class (NoMethodError) This is also confusing because I can''t figure out how the error appeared. When I revert back to previous revisions,

Hi, I had ferret working wonderfully but i am regretting doing a gem update today. I had alot of trouble first installing it and was really happy to have it working. The upgrade was from 0.3.1 to 0.4.0. The problem is; in the rails console, >> @results = Book.find_by_contents("peter pan") => #<ActsAsFerret::SearchResults:0x487040c @total_hits=0, @results=[]> Its indexing

Hi, I''ve been having a problem getting highlighting to work with aaf. I have a class defined as follows such: class Link < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret :fields => { :description => { :store => :yes } } end I get back the correct results when I do Link.find_by_contents, however, I''d like to highlight them. If I do something like iterate through the list of

Hi guys, Is there some way of getting ferret matches string, when i do a fuzzy search? The scenario is this: 1. The user search for ''show'' 2. Nothing was found 3. So I do a fuzzy search, passing ''show~'' 4. It gives me somes results, most of all was matched with ''showcase'' 5. So I want to tell the user that: Nothing was found with

I need to reset the ferret index between test runs. It seems like there are a few ways to reset the ferret index. * Deleting the index directory -- is this really bad form? * calling rebuild_index * (any others?) What would y''all recommend? (Sorry, I''m from Texas) Preferably, I''d like a way to reset the index that I can integrate into a selenium test. -David

I am looking at trying to use ferret/aaf to supplement my querying against a medium and large table with lots of columns. Some facts first: Ferret 0.11.4 AAF 0.4.0 Ruby 1.8.6 Rails 1.2.3 Medium table: 105,464 rows 168 columns (mostly varchar(20)) 11 actual columns indexed in aaf plus 40 virtual columns indexed in aaf (virtual is concat of two physical columns. e.g. cast_first_name_1 +

I''m not really sure if this is a bug, but it makes my search results look a bit strange. I have an acts_as_ferret declaration that looks like: acts_as_ferret :store_class_name => true, :remote => true, :fields => { :ferret_name => { :store => :yes, :boost => 2 }, :ferret_content => { :store => :yes } } I store both fields so that I

Hey guys, I know I can run search(q).total_hits, but if I try to put :limit=>0 it gives me an error. I don''t want it actually query any of the results, I just want it to tell me how many total_hits I would have if I wanted to search it. How can I do this? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I''m trying to use acts_as_ferret and have run into a brick wall. My model is Page My controller is Pages_controller. When in console, I can search for contents, and find results. For example, when I search for "spam" it "finds" 7 results. => #<FerretMixin::Acts::ARFerret::SearchResults:0x2693934 @total_hits=7, @results=[]> you can do a
