similar to: problem with TermQuery

I can consistently segfault the 0.10.4 gem, so I''m trying to get the subversion version working with hopes towards tracking the problem down. I have a fresh SVN checkout but: a) the version (in ferret.rb) claims to be 0.9.6; and b) Ferret::Index::FieldInfos and a couple other classes are missing at run time. It looks like this is because they''re not exported in the C

The following script creates a search index and then searches it. I get no results? Where am I going wrong? Thanks. -----------BEGIN SCRIPT---------------- require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' include Ferret path = ''/tmp/myindex'' field_infos = Ferret::Index::FieldInfos.new() field_infos.add_field(:name, :store => :yes, :index => :yes)

Hi everyone, I''m pretty new to Lucene and Ferret, so I feel that this is most likely myself not completely understanding the correct way to do this. I haved indexed ~2200 text files (of various sizes), and I am now running searches on the index to get a feel for Lucene and Ferret. In my first program, which is using Lucene I search for ''influenza'' and get the

In the O''reilly Ferret short cuts, I found very useful example for me. It explains how to make custom Tokenizer. But that book doesn''t explain how to make custom Filter. (especially, how to implement the #text=() method) I''m a newbee and I don''t understand how do I create my own custom Filter. Are there some good source code examples?? -- Posted via

Hi Folks, I''ve just released version 0.9.0. This latest version of Ferret is an alpha release. I have removed the old c extension and Ferret is now running on a fully ported C library. This has allowed some huge performance improvements both with regard to memory and CPU usage. There will probably be a few portability issues to start with. It has been developed on Linux so it should

Hi, Using aaf to search pages, I wanted to present excerpts from the texts even when more than one term was used in the search. I came to some results, despite the difficulty caused by Unicode+ruby. The last problem I''m faced is to get the query words, without the logical articulation chars if any. Is there a clean way to get them ? -- Jean-Christophe Michel

Anybody who knows whether ferret or acts_as_ferret support wordsegment search? like what lucene can done. I wanna know,if not i will use lucene instead of this can''t found relevant documents on this aspect in ruby -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi .. I tried to build some query objects to get some documents from my index.. without success.. Is something wrong here? q = Ferret::Search::BooleanQuery.new q1 = Ferret::Search::TermQuery.new(:type, "movie") q2 = Ferret::Search::TermQuery.new(:name, "Indiana") q.add_query(q1, :should) q.add_query(q2, :should) Indexer.index.search_each(q) do |doc, score| puts doc end 0

Hello, I want to make a TAG CLOUD using ferret. How can i do so ? I would need to know the amount of keyword for every each words in the index. Thank you -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi there, What''s the current status of the Windows port? I may be in a position to lend a hand over the next couple of weeks - where should I start looking? And what''s the best way to get SVN HEAD?

Hello all I finally caved in and decided I should build my own query instead of relying on QueryParser to do the job for me, but I''ve hit a strange problem.. Here''s how I build my query: #Main query query = Ferret::Search::BooleanQuery.new #Build query to match types typesquery = Ferret::Search::BooleanQuery.new @selected_types.each{|type| typesquery.add_query(

I tried adding a FULLTEXT search index to a table of mine in MySQL, only to discover that the InnoDB table format doesn''t seem to support this feature. Switching to the MyISAM table type seemed to work, but I seem to have some recollection that ActiveRecord transactions aren''t fully atomic on MyISAM tables. Is this true or am I just remembering wrong? If so, does anyone have

I have found another crash in ferret; this one just uses a regular search. It''s similar to an issue reported by Matt Schnitz a while ago, but unlike his, mine does not go away if I turn off omit_norms. It does go away if I turn on the garbage collector more often, but I''m not sure that''s a stable workaround under the circumstances. This one isn''t a

Hi guys, I am using acts_as_ferret to do full text search on my models and I am having problem on three-letter word searches. I am going to use an example to explain my problem. Here it is: There is a table called users and it has login, first_name, last_name columns. There are three rows inside it. login first_name last_name bob bob henry longbob nil

Dave, thank you so much for the 0.11 release(s). You have solved many problems for me. As part of my appreciation for your good works, I am offering up for public consideration a silly little class that I wrote. (Code is below.) This class offers a simplified Hash-like interface to (a very restricted subset of) Ferret. Hence I call it FerretHash. FerretHash comes with its very own pet Ferret

Hi, I''ve listened in to this mail list for quite a while now but not doing anything with Ferret until I was ready to incorporate it. I''ve used Lucene for years, but not Ferret. I downloaded and installed the ''bleeding edge'' version (lets call it 0.10.9.1). There appears to be a significant re-working of the API happening. It all looks good. But there

Hi all This week I have worked with Rails and Ferret to test Ferrets (and Lucenes) capabilities. I decided to make a mixin for ActiveRecord as it seemed the simplest possible solution and I ended up making this into a plugin. For more info on Ferret see: http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/ The plugin is functional but could easily be refined. Anyway I want to share it with you. Regard it as a

I would like to generate a Lucene index in Java (of plain text values only,) and be able to use that index in ferret. I''ve seen many mixed answers to this question, so I''m hoping some of you can help. Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
