Getting weighted search

[direktornswe]

Hi,
I have been playing around with Fuse for a few days now and I can't get weighted search to work. I have a needle array that looks like this:

Array
(
[1] => Array
(
[company] => Array
(
[name] => STARTUPLIFERS IN SWEDEN
[registrationid] => 55XXXX-XXXX
[id] => 1
)
),
[company] => Array
(
[name] => Google
[registrationid] => 55XXXX-XXXX
[id] => 1
),
[tags] => Array
(
[name] => Startup
)
)
......
[7992] => Array
(
[stopwords] => Array
(
[name] => Startup
)
)
...

So essentially an array with companies and I have added "stop words" in the array.

I have created my key array as follows:
'keys' => [
[
'name' => 'stopword.name',
'weight' => 1
],
[
'name' => 'company.name',
'weight' => 0.5
],
[
'name' => 'tags.name',
'weight' => 1
]
]

But when I search for the term "Startup" it does not matter how I weight my keys, the company STARTUPLIFERS is always the one with the lowest score. followed by my stop word that is a 100% match. Im using the other options for my query:
"tokenize" => true,
"matchAllTokens" => true,
"caseSensitive" => false,
"includeScore" => true,
"shouldSort" => true

It looks like this is a limitation perhaps in Fuse.js (Will try to replicate it in JS) as there is no way to force a "word boundary" search that would have helped solving this specific problem.

I replicated it in Fuse.js, and it's the exact same behavior. You're correct in that it seems to have to do with exact substring matches not being given a good score.

However, this is a problem that needs to be solved on the Fuse.js side and I encourage you to open an issue there.

It also seems like you're new to GitHub (welcome!) so I'd encourage you to get a little bit familiar with Markdown to format your issues. Especially creating code blocks would be helpful, as your code examples were not easy to read. ❤️
