I''m trying to index ~130,000 documents [soon to grow to about 500,000 documents] and I''m wondering if its possible to combine ferret databases or in some other way split up the building process. Normally, indexing 130k documents wouldn''t be that painful except that there are different types of links between these documents and they are not absolute (so for example

Hi There, Is anyone using RAMDirectory as the data store with acts_as_ferret? I would love some pointers on how to configure acts_as_ferret to correctly use RAMDirectory (rather than FSDirectory).

Hi all, the current acts_as_ferret trunk is now ported to Ferret 0.10. Get it while it''s hot at svn://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/trunk/plugin Nearly everything works, besides this: - all queries are ORed (no way to tell the QueryParser to build AND queries by default) - more_like_this is broken I''m working with Dave to fix these things soon. The last Ferret 0.9.x

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/.

Hi there, I''m working with some legacy data where customer phone numbers are stored with hyphens between the area code, exchange, and number (e.g. 555-555-5555). Is this the best way to store a phone number? Perhaps not, but it''s the way they were being stored, so I have to work with this format. Right, so when I save a record the log tells me acts_as_ferret indexed the

I am using Ferret and acts_as_ferret, as my search back-end for my Rails project. I have a question about using acts_as_ferret on a main table that is linked to other tables by foreign keys. Is there a way to include the information linked by the belongs_to keyword in the search results ? As an example, let''s say I have a main table ''posts'':

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 =

Hi, One of the AAF features is to be able to index results of methods, but I haven''t seen anywhere how to do this. I have a method that returns the full text of a file and I''d like for this to be indexed. Can anyone out there help me out on this one? Tom -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve been reading through the lucene, ferret, and aaf docs, but I''m still a bit new at full text indexing. When I create a new instance of an indexed model, and save it, it doesn''t show up in searches. Should I have to update the index of the entire model (which works) before it will return in queries?

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

My index is not being updated when I add new records or amend existing ones. Can anyone point me in the direction of where I should be looking for what is going wrong? I''m running this in the production environment. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I would like to give the 0.9.0 version of Ferret a try on my application hosted on TextDrive. I am currently running on the 0.3.2 version there. Does anyone have any tips on installing it locally there? I know just enough about Ruby gems to get by... but I am thinking it could be as easy as passing a -i flag to specify the install location for ferret. Then, the only thing I am not sure about

Dear list, I ''m using a text input field with autocompletion . The suggestions come from a ferret index which is created by getting all the terms belonging to other indices. Here is the code: class Suggestion attr_accessor :term def self.index(create) [Person, Project, Orgunit].each{|kl| terms = self.all_terms(kl) terms.each{|term| suggestion =

Hello all, Quick question, I''m using AAF and the following custom analyzer: class StemmedAnalyzer < Ferret::Analysis::Analyzer include Ferret::Analysis def initialize(stop_words = ENGLISH_STOP_WORDS) @stop_words = stop_words end def token_stream(field, str) StemFilter.new(StopFilter.new(LowerCaseFilter.new(StandardTokenizer.new(str)), @stop_words)) end However when

I have ferret setup in my model with multiple fields, but when I do a search on the value that might be stored in two fields, I get no results. Here''s an example: "Jim 12333" Where Jim is a name field, and 12333 is a zip code. I have this in my model: acts_as_ferret :fields => [ ''name'', ''zip'' ] I''m not sure

Hi after upgrading to ferret 0.10.1 and bleeding edge aaf i''m getting some strange behavior. Generally much better stability with new version of ferret but when i add new items for some reason i can no longer search with a *. Or rather i can but it returns no results and no errors. I can search and get results normally on other searches and when i rebuild the index i can search with

Hi, I''m working on an aaf bug report that led me to what I think is a bug in Ferret itself. The snippet at http://pastie.caboo.se/12950 shows the problem, the last two lines should imho only return one result, because of :offset => 1 or :limit => 1, but both return all (that is, 2) results (Ferret 0.10.4).

i''m using Ferret 0.9.0 with acts_as_ferret (the one from svn.jkraemer.net), and i''m getting duplicate results, as described in this thread: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/ferret-talk/2005-December/000048.html is there a way to configure the indexes created by acts_as_ferret to use :key => :id, as described in that thread? i''ve poked around in the code, and had

PROBLEM I have two models, Blog and BlogComment. When a blog is initially created, it has no comments. Upon creation, the title and body are automatically added to the ferret index and directly searchable. However, when a comment is added to a blog, that comment does not get added to the index and is therefore not ferretable. The desired behavior is that when a comment is added to a blog, that the
