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},

This is important and may be affecting you if you use :select to minimize the columns you need on big queries. If you use :select to define which columns you need and you have not included all the columns you defined in the :acts_as_ferret field definitions you''ll clear the content of those fields on the ferret index. And that may corrupt your index. So, if you have in your model:

Google lets me down once again :-) Coming from a PHP background I know I can take submitted form data, mix it, mash it and put it together in very odd ways. In other words do this. $title = "My Title" $sub_title = "My Sub Title" $full_title = $title . "-" . $sub_table And submit $full_title to the database. I have yet to find a solution for this in Rails - I

Hi .. I tried to exclude certain objects from my search, by adding appropriate term queries .. i = Ferret::Index::Index.new i.field_infos.add_field(:type, :index => :untokenized, :term_vector => :no) i << {:type => "Movie", :name => "Indiana" } i << {:type => "Movie", :name => "Forrest" } i << {:type =>

Hi, I have my Model as follows: class Mutation < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret ({:fields => {:description=>{}, :product_id=>{:index => :untokenized}, :product_description=>{}, :product_label_description=>{}, :product_label_free=>{}, :product_product_id_supplier=>{}, :product_description_supplier=>{}, :supplier_description=>{}, :pub_date_sort

I''m getting "uninitialized constant UNTOKENIZED" when I try to do something like the following: class Url < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret :fields => {''name'' => {}, ''description'' => {}, ''url'' => {:index => Ferret::Document::Field::Index::UNTOKENIZED},

Hi, I have a address model. I make the city and the state field untokenized. It looks like Ferret doesn''t perform downcasing for these fields in the index. so the search can''t be done case-insensitively. how do I solve this problem? Downcase the indexed terms as well as the search value? Is there a simpler solution? Thanks. Yaxm -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

hi, i''m trying ferret, i''ve a model which has some records and two of them have a title with the word ''again'' (one or more time), so i''ve tried to do a search for ''again'', but i didn''t found anything...i''ve edited the title with ''test again'', searched for ''test'', and i''ve

I''ve been trying to implement acts_as_ferret in my latest project and ran into a snag. If I do a search for ''auditor state'' then the search works perfectly. If I include a stop word, as in ''auditor of state'', then I get no results. I''d prefer not to set stop words to nil and index everything. The solution, that I have yet to attempt, is to use

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},

OK. After a little more digging in MySQL''s manual on SubSelects, I''ve changed the finder_sql entry in my model declaration: class District < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :interviewers, :order => "lname, fname" has_many :applicants has_many :unassigned_applicants, :class_name => "Applicant", :finder_sql => "select a.* from

I started using robotcoop''s CachedModel class in my project but have encountered problems when using it with the acts_as_ferret plugin. It seems it doesn''t index everything in my STI model, also if I do a search from my base STI class I get a result count but no results. If I run the same search from one of the children STI models I get the appropriate results (if the information

I''m using backgroundrb for session management and deletion of visitor-entered information when a session is abandoned. The visitor can either click a button to end their session and remove their data, or backgroundrb will do it for them after 5 minutes of inactivity. Everything''s working fine, I think. If the visitor explicitly logs out, then when the worker checks for their

Hi all, I have indexes on 2 models e.g Message model acts_as_ferret(:store_class_name => true, :fields =>{:message => {:store => :compressed}, :felix_user_id => {:index =>:untokenized_omit_norms,:store => :no}) and the chat model acts_as_ferret(:store_class_name => true, :fields => {:name => {:store =>

Hello ferret users, I have a problem with ferret dropping stored fields in the index. Not all fields I want to store get stored, so they can be searched, but can''t be retrieved in a search. Index creation: INDEX = Index::Index.new(:path => ''/home/gregor/wisa/index'', :analyzer => Analysis::WhiteSpaceAnalyzer.new) SR =

Hi, I have some questions about searching with Ferret. I have a user index with first_name, last_name and full_name (which is just first plus last with a space). Here are a couple of questions: 1) If I store the fields tokenized, it appears as though queries are case-insensitive. However, for untokenized, the query is case-sensitive. How can I make the untokenized searches case-insensitive?

Hi, I have a model which has properties, these are your standard name/value pairs, but also have attributes that affect how I want to store them in ferret. I was using 0.9.5 with 0.2 of aaf, which seemed fine, I just copied and pasted (yes, I know, ick) the to_doc method and added code to iterate though the properties that that model had, and add relavent fields to the document. It seems
