Hello All, Okay i think I''m finally getting all of what i want out of ferret working, thanks mostly to reading this forum and also getting ALOT of questions answered, thanks alot everyone. Anyway my last ferret task is too get the results sorted by a field called date_registered and have this working with pagination. here is what i''m doing at the moment:

Hi i have a column in my ferret model called sponsored. It is a boolean and i want to order the results by sponsored and date registered. At the moment it is not managing to sort the booleans. I tried declaring this in my model but it seems to have had no effect. def false.<=>(o) o ? -1 : 0 end def true.<=>(o) !o ? 1 : 0 end I''m using the acts_as_ferret plugin. below

Hi David again. I would say that Ferret works great with Rails. And now I am trying to create pagination. Because site could have millions of documents I need to create on page link something like "Page #100". Rather usual situation. But to create this links I need to know how many documents Ferret found in index. For now I am doing it with following code index =

Hello folks, I have four models, each with their own separate index. Models = Articles, Blogs, MusicTracks, and MediaFiles I have individual searches within each section of the site working just fine, but I want to have a gloabl search that searches across all of them at the same time and returns the results ordered by score. Here''s how far I am now... def search query =

Hi all, I''ve recently started working with Ferret and I''m getting what seems to be slow searches. I have about 10000 documents in the index, with several fields per document, with some fields having an array of several values that are indexed. I am using a RAMDirectory to store the index for searching. When doing testing, I find that searches are reasonable at around .2 to

Hi, I seem to be having trouble getting more than 10 hits from Index#search_each since upgrading to 0.10.2 (ie, this was working in 0.9.4). Maybe a bug, as the #search_each doesn''t seem to use the options parameter any more ? Thanks, Neville =========================================== require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' p Ferret::VERSION idx =

I''m just wondering where I would put the pagination for search results when using "acts_as_ferret". At the moment my search code is.. def search @query = params[:query] || '''' unless @query.blank? @results = Tutorial.find_by_contents @query end end Cheers SchmakO -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am getting strange results when I reverse sort a query. I am sorting by date, but it doesn''t seem to be related to dates (I have tried just integers). I also paginate the results. Items in the result set are sometimes duplicated and the not ordered at all. When I try a non-reverse sort I don''t see duplicates and the ordering is correct. Any ideas what is going on? Thanks

Dave and all, I run a medium RoR app using Ferret and acts_as_ferret. I get a lot of lock errors. Not always but around 5% of all searches (aspecially during peak periods). Here are the messages I get: A NameError occurred in szukaj#index: uninitialized constant Ferret::Index::Index::LockError [RAILS_ROOT]/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:478:in

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, had my local linux box setup and ferret was working like a champ via Webrick. However, when I moved to a different linux box using Apache web server, search no worky..giving the error listed below. The site itself comes up fine. I''ve tried deleting all the dirs under /index and restarted the webserver to see if re-indexing would help, but that made matters worse. Re-indexing

Hi all, I''m trying to figure out how to add a filter into a search. I''ve created the filter, basically copying the location filter from http://blog.tourb.us/archives/ferret-and-location-based-searches. But when I try to call Index.search and pass the filter in a hash with the key :filter, I get back that it is expecting type Data, and so I''m at a loss to figure out

Using Ferret for searching, I''ve got results that I need to link to. Which is fine, except for that they''re displayed on paginated pages using Rails paginate function - so it''s not like I can''t get it from the database or anything else. Anyone have any ideas on how to go about this? It''s not so much a coding problem as a theory problem, and I

I''m trying to sort my search results by Date, in descending order. I''ve done quite a bit of reading through the forums here, and I''ve tried two different suggestions. This just returns results in the same order as a search without a sort: sort_fields = [] sort_fields << Ferret::Search::SortField.new("ferret_created_at",:reverse => :true)

Hi Everyone, I''ve a RoR application. I am trying to build full text search capability into it. I installed Ferret. After that I installed the act_as_ferret plugin. I''ve also put the acts_as_ferret inside the <model>.rb file . I''m using the find_by_contents to get the search results. I''m getting the following error. I''ve no clue and I

I am getting this issue also... Does anyone know what this is? When will Acts as Ferret be available for v10? Thanks for your help in desperation!

I''m trying to use the Ferret DRB server to avoid concurrency issues when using multiple mongrels. I can successfully add and edit data on my index via the DRB server, however, when I search the index, I get the following error: DRb::DRbConnError (DRb::DRbServerNotFound): /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1647:in `current_server'' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1709:in

I''m trying to generate a rails pagination helper for some ferret search results, and I need to know how many total matches there are to my search query. I don''t see an obvious way of finding this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Carl Youngblood

I've traced a memory leak to a statement which assigns the values from an MSetItem to a dictionary which is then appended to a list in python. We're running python 2.7.3, xapian-core 1.2.15 and xapian-bindings 1.2.15. I've provided an example which reproduces the behavior below. The example prints the PID and has a few statements waiting for input to make observing the behavior easier.
