I have an indexed model called Article and I don't want solr to index unpublished articles. class Article < ActiveRecord::Base searchable do text :title text :body end end How can I specify that article that is not #published? should not be indexed? Be sure to index the published status. class Article < ActiveRecord::Base searchable do text :title text :body boolean :is_published, :using => :published? end end Then add a filter to your query Sunspot.search(Article) do |search| search.with(:is_published, true) # ... end If you want to make sure unpublished articles are never included in the

I'm debugging my Solr schema and I'd like to see the results of tokenizing a specific field. For a simplified example, if I have: <fieldType name="text" class="solr.TextField" omitNorms="false"> <analyzer> <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.StandardFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.PorterStemFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.EdgeNGramFilterFactory" minGramSize="2" maxGramSize="15" side="front"/> </analyzer> </fieldType> and I indexed a field with the value "Hello, worlds!" , I want to see something along

I have a mini blog app and i would like user to view articles that relates to what they are reading in the article show page. without the sunspot_rails gem i would do something like this in my model def self.related_search(query, join = "AND") find(:all, :conditions => related_search_conditions(query, join)) end def self.related_search_conditions(query, join) query.split(/\s+/).map do |word| '(' + %w[name description notes].map { |col| "#{col} LIKE #{sanitize('%' + word.to_s + '%')}" }.join(' OR ') + ')' end.join(" #{join} ") end then in my view it would be like this @article.related_search

I have a model which deploys a delayed job that updates some of its attributes. The model is declared "searchable"... searchable do text :content, :stored => true end ... which I thought would re-index after a save. On testing, this doesn't seem to be the case. If I run: rake sunspot:reindex , then everything works as expected. What could be causing this issue? As mentioned by Jason, you can call Sunspot.commit_if_dirty to issue a commit from your client. From the server configuration side, another approach would be to set the autoCommit property in your solrconfig.xml to automatically issue

Let me know if I am wrong, but I think solr only expects fields that are already mentioned in the schema.xml. So, if I have a field called 'title', I need to mention this in the schema. There is no mentioning about modifying the schema.xml in the Sunspot's documentation. I am just wondering how Sunspot modifies schema.xml allowing custom fields to be entered to the index. I also know that Sunspot uses RSolr to do things. So if there is a way to modify the schema and reload data from DB to Solr using RSolr, please let me know. As karmajunkie alludes to, Sunspot uses its own standard schema. I
