Searching engines

By default plugin use SQL Engine, but there is available SphinxSearch Engine.

1. Before you switch to Thinking Sphinx you should make sure that SphinxSearch engine was installed

  • Thinking Sphinx will be installed with bundle commend (was definded in Gemfile)

2. If everything was successfully installed then in your console run(in main Redmine catalog):

  • bundle exec rake ts:index (index your data)

  • bundle exec rake ts:start

  • Choose search method : Administration -> Plugins -> Redmine Did You Mean? -> select Thinking Sphinx Engine.

  • Now possibly duplicated subject's will be searching by Sphinx.

3. If you want stop searching by SphinxSearch Engine in your console run:

  • bundle exec rake ts:stop

  • Switch method in plugin configuration.

Difference between search engines

Main adventages of SphinxSearch is fact that if you set many words to searching this gives you results faster then SQL Engine.

* SQL Engine: Takes words 1:1 if you match 'GUI Changes' this will be looking for “GUI” “Changes”.

* Thinking Sphinx Engine: Firstly search for words 1:1 after this substrac last character ex. like: “Running”

- Firstly "Running" 
- "Runner"
- etc.
