[ANN] acts_as_ferret 0.2.2

Ruby Apps Ferret

Hi all,

I just tagged acts_as_ferret 0.2.2 as the current stable version, so get
it while it’s hot :wink:

new features:

  • added support for the multiple models/single index approach.
  • find out the total number of search results by calling total_hits on
    the array returned by find_by_contents.

fixes:

  • trac tickets #20 (find_by_contents breaks ferret sorting) and #24
    (rebuild_index wastes a huge ammount of memory).

as always, thanks for reporting issues and uploading patches :slight_smile:

More info can be found on my blog:

Thanks Jens. acts_as_ferret has come a long way in a very short time.
I am going to convert my own ferret implementation over to
acts_as_ferret soon since it now seems to do everything I need, and
probably better than my own implementation :slight_smile:

Thanks for your efforts.
