全文搜尋 Sphinx on Rails

Update(2009/3/31): 除了 ultrasphinx 之外,還有一套 Ruby library 是 thinking sphinx 目前已經是最被推薦的 Rails 套件,我也推薦改使用 thinking sphinx,peepcode 有出它的 PDF

雖然在 Ruby/Rails 圈比較常聽到 Ferret,不過這隻雪貂的穩定度一直為人所詬病。我在 survey Rails 全文搜尋方案的時候,看到另一個有 Rails plugin 支援的開放源碼全文搜尋引擎 Sphinx,搭配的 Rails plugin 叫做 Ultrasphinx

Sphinx 的特點在於它直接存取 MySQL (或PostgreSQL),完全獨立於 Rails app。它不像 acts_as_ferretacts_as_solr 使用 rails callback 來做新資料的索引動作,而是設定 crontab 定期跑 indexer (如每半小時),大大提高了 search daemon 穩定度(反之亦然),也不太有索引資料損壞的問題(在講ferret?)。目前看到的評價也都是穩穩穩高效能,用過就不想再用 Ferret 了。Ultrasphinx 的作者也有 benchmark 數據可供佐證。

安裝第一步是去 Sphinx 官方網站下載並 compile

wget
tar xvf sphinx-.tar.gz
cd sphinx-
./configure && make && sudo make install

安裝 chronic gem

sudo gem install chronic

安裝 ultrasphinx plugin:

script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/fauna/ultrasphinx/trunk

如果要分頁功能,ultrasphinx 也有支援 will_paginate plugin。

 script/plugin install svn:://errtheblog.com/svn/plugins/will_paginate

裝好之後就來設定

mkdir config/ultrasphinx
cp vendor/plugin/ultrasphinx/examples/default.base config/ultrasphinx/

設定檔的部份我就直接大贈送給各位(記得改path),包括支援中文搜尋,這個答案在官網討論區有。

  ngram_len = 1
  ngram_chars = U+4E00..U+9FBF, U+3400..U+4DBF, U+20000..U+2A6DF, U+F900..U+FAFF, U+2F800..U+2FA1F, U+2E80..U+2EFF, U+2F00..U+2FDF, U+3100..U+312F, U+31A0..U+31BF, U+3040..U+309F, U+30A0..U+30FF, U+31F0..U+31FF, U+AC00..U+D7AF, U+1100..U+11FF, U+3130..U+318F, U+A000..U+A48F, U+A490..U+A4CF
}

接下來設定你的 Model 要索引哪些欄位,例如

Class Topic < ActiveRecord::Base
  is_indexed :fields => ['subject', 'content']
end

接著產生實際要用的設定檔。注意到如果你之後有改 model 的 is_indexed,這個設定檔每次都要重新產生(因為裡面的東西是 SQL 指令)。

  rake ultrasphinx:configure

跑索引跟 daemon 很簡單

rake ultrasphinx:index
rake ultrasphinx:daemon:start

至此可以搜尋了:

  @search = Ultrasphinx::Search.new(:query => 'keyword')
  @search.run
  @search.results

如果你要更進一步的搜尋,像是限定 Model 或 Association scoping,就請認真做功課唸Ultrasphinx 文件囉。
