Searches limited to 10 results?

Ruby Apps Ferret
1

Hello all,

I’ve just recently gotten my ActiveRecord models indexed properly in my
Rails App. Woohoo! So I’ve started testing some searches.

Is there some limit to acts_as_ferret that only allows it to return 10
results? I’m searching for common terms in my data that I know return
many results, but I only ever get at most 10 results.

This is in a db with 350k rows:

Comment.find_by_contents(“ian”).size
=> 10

The following SQL returns 1359 rows:
SELECT count(*) FROM comments where comment like ‘% ian %’;

My comment model has this:

acts_as_ferret :fields => [ ‘comment’ ]

Anything I’m doing wrong here?

Thanks!
Ian.

Hi Ian,

Try;

Comment.find_by_contents(“ian”, :num_docs => 100).size

Cheers,

Dave
