Hi, I m trying to use a custom analyser to add my french stop words... i m reading the tutorial at : http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/wiki/AdvancedUsage My problem is that i ve no idea where to put my custom Analyser class like : class GermanStemmingAnalyzer < Ferret::Analysis::Analyzer include Ferret::Analysis def initialize(stop_words = FULL_GERMAN_STOP_WORDS)

I''m sure I''m missing something completely obvious here, so I hope someone can point me in the right direction! I''ve implemented a basic search with AAF, which works as expected; I''m running a ferret drb server, and using will_paginate to page results. The code in my search_controller.rb: search_text = params[:query] || " " @products =

I''m using acts_as_ferret to index one of my rails models. Right after I start the app the first request that orders by some ferret field will take very long. Subsequent ones seem to be fast. I guess some caching is going on. Any tips on solving this? Pedro.

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

Hello all, I am new to the list, but I have been using ferret for a little bit already. I would first like to thank Dave for all his work on ferret. I had a few questions that I haven''t been able to figure out after messing around with ferret and going through the documentation. StemFilter ------ I am trying to improve the quality of my searches in context of the content of my

I''m not on AAF. Can someone else help Raymond with an example?

I''m using the custom stem analyzer: require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' include Ferret module Ferret::Analysis class FerretAnalyzer def initialize(stop_words = FULL_ENGLISH_STOP_WORDS) @stop_words = stop_words end def token_stream(field, text) StemFilter.new(StopFilter.new(LowerCaseFilter.new(StandardTokenizer.new(text)),

Hi, I''m having difficulty getting the StemFilter and PhraseQuery to work properly together. When I use a StemFilter with a PhraseQuery, searches only work if the phrase consists of stems. For example, the search phrase "reduces health care" will not work but the phrase "reduce health care" will work even though the exact text "reduces health care" is

I''m trying to sort by score but it seems like SortField::SortType::SCORE is 0 instead of a SortType. A test case is attached. Without the C extensions the test passes, so I guess it''s a bug in them. Should I be using it without the extensions? Because if that''s the case I have some other bugs to report. Greetings, Pedro C?rte-Real -------------- next part

I tried sorting the search results in Ferret::Index::Index#search and what I found was that the sort is applied not to the whole search but to the returned results. Suppose I have these results: Text - Num foo - 2 bar - 3 far - 4 boo - 1 If I limit the search to the first two and sort by num I get: foo - 2 bar - 3 while I think the natural behaviour would be: boo - 1 foo - 2 Is this

Hi all, I cannot make aaf (rev. 220) use my custom analyzer, despite following the indications @ http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/wiki/AdvancedUsage To pinpoint the problem, I created a model + a simple analyzer with 2 stop words : "fax" and "gsm". test 1 : model.rebuild_index + model.find_by_contents("fax") # fax is a stop word. => I get a

Hi - I''m currently investigating support for Ferret and content that spans multiple locales. I am particularly interested in using stemming and fuzzy searches (e.g. with slop factor) across multiple locales. So far I''ve followed the online docs for implementing a Stemming Analyzer, and it is working for English terms just fine. I''ve also written a method to import data

I run a script that imports a few thousand records into the database. The script runs once for each of several XML files. What it does is parse the XML and for each element of a certain type creates a record in a rails database that gets indexed with acts_as_ferret. This worked fine before but today after a few files (70000 records) this started to happen for any file I tried:

Hello, I want to clean up accented characters in my index, using acts_as_ferret in a Rails project. I searched this forum, and found the best solution is to use an analyser. I created somthing like this: class PortugueseAnalyzer include Ferret::Analysis MAPPING = {

Hello all, Quick question (possibly!) - I''ve got a few records indexed and doing a search for ''test'' reports in no hits even though I know the word ''tests'' exists in the indexed field. Doing a search for ''tests'' produces a result. I would have thought that ''test'' would match ''tests'' but no such

The docs for Sort.new say: reverse: pass true if you want the sort order to be reversed. Only works if you pass the field names. Does this mean it''s not possible to do a reverse sort by score? If it is it seems to be broken as I don''t seem to be able to reverse the order of the sort. I''ll write a test case if this is not a known problem. Greetings, Pedro.

I created this analyzer: class DescriptionAnalyzer < Ferret::Analysis::Analyzer def token_stream(field, string) if field == "code" return CodeTokenStream.new(string) else return Ferret::Analysis::Analyzer.new.token_stream(field,string) end end end and created an IndexWriter with it: Ferret::Index::IndexWriter.new(get_index_path,

Is there anything about this analyzer that says "case-sensitive" to you? module Ferret::Analysis class StemmingAnalyzer def token_stream(field, text) StemFilter.new(StandardTokenizer.new(text)) end end end Just wondering how I can force my index to be case-insensitive.

Hi, I just started using ferret and the aaf plugin and it seems to work quite nicely. However, my fields are very short (titles of music) and I don''t think may users will be typing in apostrophes when they are looking for something. Right now, for a simple document such as "what i''ve done" I''d like it to be indexed as "what ive done" instead. Right

Hi, Can Ferret be configured to change the minimum word length of what it indexes? Right now it seems to drop words 3 characters or less, but I''d like to include words going down to 2 characters. How would I do that? Francis
