Sphinx Filters - Can I have an 'OR' between filters attributes?

问题

I'm using sphinx to list me some items from my database here. It's almost 100%, I just haven't figured out yet how to create an OR between two different filters. For example:

My Object in the database has a starting and an ending date, I can filter(starting_date, x, y) and filter(ending_date,x,y), but both filters will have to return true to bring me the object, how can I say to sphinx filter this attribute, or that one?

回答1:

Sphinx uses | for or

as in "black" OR "white" would be "black" | "white" http://www.sphinxsearch.com/docs/manual-0.9.9.html#boolean-syntax

Asked and answered on the Sphinx Forums.

Only possible in 0.9.9, using the SetSelect.

There is no way of having OR logic across different attributes in Sphinx. Normally, there's two possible work-arounds:

1. Have one multi-value attribute with both sets of values you want to match against - and filter on arrays of values.
2. If it's the same OR logic every time, combine it into a single boolean attribute, having the SQL statement do the initial hard work.

Using timestamps makes things a bit more difficult though - MVAs are only for integers at this point... are you after all objects that are occuring at a specific time? Or something else?
