Since I have tried to install xapian but failed, I try another alternative with xapian-full. Installation seems goes well, but when I try to write code with that I got toasted with error message again: irb(main):001:0> require 'xapian' LoadError: dlopen(/opt/ruby-enterprise/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/xapian-full-1.1.3.4/lib/_xapian.bundle, ...
I am looking for an alternative to acts_as_solr or thinkingsphinx for fulltext search in my Rails app. Came across searchlogic. Does it support indexing? I am planning to host my app on heroku and I want an alternative because heroku charges for Websolr. I am aware of the alternative way of using texticle or acts_as_tsearch but i want t...
If this was on a linux box I'd be set, but there's a distinct lack of documentation! I want to use this with c# and the omega indexing app. There doesn't seem to be any documentation on how to actually BUILD xapian & omega on windows (or, pre-compiled binaries which would work fine). ...

I am studying fulltext search engines for django. It must be simple to install, fast indexing, fast index update, not blocking while indexing, fast search.

I realize there's a similar question here, but this one has a different approach: I have a django app that does queries over data indexed with djapian ; I'd like to write unit tests for this app's search component, and, obviously, I'd need the django settings module and all connections with the database active, so the test runner that dj...

Has anyone ever used Xapian for implementing an Auto-Complete/Auto-Suggest feature? i.e. providing possible set of suggestions as the user types a.k.a. Google's Auto-Suggest.

This is not a case of classic document search, where users search inside large blobs. The fields are very short. Also, the main issue here is performance (and not r...

Hi, I'm using djapian as my search backend, and I'm looking to search for a range of values. For example: query = 'comments:(0..10)' Post.indexer.search(query) would search for Posts with between 0 and 10 comments. I cannot find a way to do this in djapian, though I have found this issue, and patch to implement some kind of date rang...
