similar to: AAF: merge search results

Hi all, I want to use acts_as_ferret''s multi_search to search two model classes (Reviewable and Blog) at a time like @results = Reviewable.multi_search("jemen", [Blog]) and I''m always getting the error You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.map

Is it possible to sort the result of acts_as_ferret multi_search the way you can with find_contents? I''m using the latest ferret and aaf. I have an interface that offers multiple search options which search different fields of a single model. In addition to these, I also have an "all" search type which is meant to pull in one additional model and consider all indexed

The first time I tried to run a multi_search, I got an error and discovered there were no indexes for any of the models. index > model folders were there but no actual indexes. I couldn''t figure out how to get it to create indexes so I edited a record for each model which created all the indexes. Then when I ran the search, everything worked well. Is there a bug related to this

I''m using acts_as_ferret to do a query like this: Model1.multi_search("my query",[Model2,Model3], :limit => 2) No matter what number i set limit to I get 10 items in the resultset. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks/David -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello everyone, I''m using multi-search to search in some attributes of two classes. One of the attributes is the id of the customer. For each multi_search I want to do a give the id of the current customer as a parameter. This should only return results for the given customer. My current code looks like this: Folder.multi_search(@search_query, [Myfile]) I noticed in the API you can

I am trying to use acts_as_ferret''s multi_search to search across multiple models, but i only want it to return one type of model. for example i have a page that lists out people. on this page it shows email addresses and phone numbers.

No, that search model is just a plain class that backs your search form. If you want to

Hi. I''m running 0.11.4. The problem I''m having, appears to have been solved before according to various posts I googled up, but possibly the fix got removed from 0.11.3 to 0.11.4? re = Entry.multi_search(''service'', [Ticket], options, {}) re.size 620 re.total_hits 620 Now add conditions: re = Entry.multi_search(''service'', [Ticket],

I have design question and I''m wondering what''s the best way to solve it. I''m trying to index HTML content where I have a single model object call it Article that is an acts_as_ferret model, and an article consists of many HTML files. I would like to index all of the content of the article with ferret and search across it. However, since the article''s

I''m hoping someone has encountered this before. I''m using AAF trunk and trying to multi_search across 2 models. It works fine on my windows (Webricks) dev env but now that i''ve deployed to linux, (Apache, FastCGI) I''m getting the following error: ArgumentError ( isn''t a valid directory argument. You should use either a String or a Directory):

The documentation states: "single_index: set this to true to let this class use a Ferret index that is shared by all classes having :single_index set to true. :store_class_name is set to true implicitly, as well as index_dir, so don?t bother setting these when using this option. the shared index will be located in index/<RAILS_ENV>/shared ."

I am trying to get multi_search to search across multiple models.

Hello, I am trying to use the multi_search method, but I keep getting type error on nil objects, I send it [Model1,Model2] and it seems as though the class names keep getting clobbered and turn to nil, somewhere along the multi_index area. I tried to trace what was going on, but I got nothing, also, this only happens when there are actually hits(thank god, most of the time). Perhaps some insight?

Hi, I''m running the trunk version with drb server. In my ferret_server.log I get a lot of messages like this: #method_missing(:add, ["User", {:first_name=>"blah", :comments=>nil, :company=>"blah", :phone_day=>""}]) Over and over again. But more importantly, since yesterday doing a search has caused an exception: A NoMethodError

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

Say the user first enters "ruby" for search and gets 1000 results. Then he can search "rails" just in the 1000 results just returned. The common scenario is some kind of advanced search. User can incrementally add criteria and the program will narrow the results step by step. I know that at least I can use all the criteria as a whole to do the searching, but this is a waste

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?

Is there a way I can get ferret to give the highest ranking to an exact term match? The problem I have right now is that I am searching both title and body fields, so even if I boost the title field, if the body has more instances of the query, then it gets pushed up in rank. I would like for ferret to put exact matches (of the title field) at the very top of the pile, so if I do a
