Hello.
Forgive my ignorance if this has been covered. I searched through the
archives and didn’t find anything.
All the blogs, tutorials, documentation I’m reading on acts_as_ferret
say that to use fuzzy searching, I simply append a ~ to my query.
I’m using Ferret 0.11.3 and the newest (should be) acts_as_ferret
plugin. I can only get perfect matches to show up using a query such
as…
Blog.find_by_contents(“test”), which returns results just fine.
as soon as I add the ~
Blog.find_by_contents(“test~”), I get nothing.
If I use wildcard syntax…
Blog.find_by_contents(“test”), I get results again.
I could be interpreting what I’m reading wrong or I have something
misconfigured, but I’m confused by this.
Can somebody point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Andrew
