Description: We all experienced how easy it is to get started with Sphinx and Thinking Sphinx but it becomes complex very quickly with sophisticated data models. We will talk about the folowing topics:
Indexing through has_many relationships using multi-value
attributes and the limitations of that solution.
Search filters
Geolocation search
Cross index search
Cross model search
The goal of this presentation and discussion is to give and illustrate simple code solutions to solve common search problems using Sphinx and Thinking Sphinx.
Speaker: Christophe Lucas is currently the lead software engineer at VisualCV, Inc. Prior to VisualCV, he worked at Revolution Health Group, LLC, designing and developing web applications using the Ruby on Rails
framework. He also developed desktop applications using Java at the National Institute of Standards and Technology as a guest researcher and at Meta Integration Technology. He is a firm believer in the Manifesto for Agile Software Development and eXtreme Programming best practices.
