New version of Hit class

comment:1 by sdm@…, 18 years ago

Done:

  • Added 2 news patch for query.py and xapian.py
  • In the query.py you can now just execute the ".get_object" and it will return the respective object for the result
  • Changed the __repr__ of Hit class to be more readable

TODO:

  • Better documentation in the code
  • Put the order_by argument to work
  • [Future] Remote backend functionalities?

Now I'm posting a big patch for 4 files (xapian.py, base.py, lucene.py, query.py)
Done:

  • Now the order_by works to Xapian
  • Was need edit the Lucene, I need that someone try it, I can't

Todo:

  • Put filters like "user:django" to work

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

I've finished my work for now.

The Xapian backend are working with the following features:

  • order_by
  • Prefixes (like title:django)
  • Support for functions instead fields (needed when you need index "caminhao" instead "caminhão")
  • Return the object of a Hit when "get_object()" is called

WARNING

  • The version 0.3 of xapwrap (actualy the most recent - 2006-09-14) is BUGGED for newers versions of Xapian, it uses the "set_prefix" for QueryParser object, but the real function is "add_prefix", so you need edit the file "xapwrap/index.py" in the root of source code, go to the line 528 and change it, after (re)install the xapwrap and everything will be cool ;D
  • This still untested for Lucene and Hype, so please, someone test it

Well...is it...I hope that every body enjoy ;)
