2.1.0 ↑

  • 1 DEPRECATION

    • ‘search` aliases new `advanced_search` method (same functionality as before), but will alias `basic_search` in 3.0! Should print warnings.

  • 2 new features

    • Generate full text search indexes from a rake task (sort of like in 1.x). Supply a specific model name.

    • New search methods: ‘basic_search`, `advanced_search` and `fuzzy_search`. Basic allows special characters like &, and % in search terms. Fuzzy is based on Postgres’s trigram matching extension pg_trgm. Advanced is the same functionality from ‘search` previously.

  • 1 dev improvement

    • Test database configuration not automatically generated from a rake task and ignored by git.

2.0.3 ↑

  • 1 new feature

    • Allow searching through relations. Model.join(:relation).search(:relation => {:column => “query”}) works, and reduces the need for multi-model tables. Huge thanks to Ben Hamill for the pull request.

    • Allow searching through all model columns irrespective of the column’s type; we cast all columns to text in the search query. Performance may degrade when searching through anything but a string column.

  • 2 bugfixes

    • Fix exceptions when adding Texticle to a table-less model.

    • Column names in a search query are now scoped to the current table.

  • 1 dev improvement

    • Running ‘rake` from the project root will setup the test environment by creating a test database and running the necessary migrations. `rake` can also be used to run all the project tests.

2.0.2 ↑

  • 1 bugfix

    • Our #respond_to? overwritten method was causing failures when a model didn’t have a table (e.g. if migrations hadn’t been run yet). Not the case anymore.

2.0.1 ↑

  • 1 new feature

    • Can now define #searchable_language to specify the language used for the query. This changes what’s considered a stop word on Postgres’ side. ‘english’ is the default language.

  • 1 bugfix

    • We were only specifying a language in to_tsvector() and not in to_tsquery(), which could cause queries to fail if the default database language wasn’t set to ‘english’.

2.0.pre4 ↑

  • 1 new feature

    • Searchable is now available to specify which columns you want searched:

      require 'texticle/searchable'
class Game
  extend Searchable(:title)
end

      This also allows Texticle use in Rails without having #search available to all models:

      gem 'texticle', '~> 2.0.pre4', :require => 'texticle/searchable'

  • 1 bugfix

    • ActiveRecord::Base.extend(Texticle) doesn’t break #method_missing and #respond_to? anymore

2.0.pre3 ↑

  • 1 new feature

    • #select calls now limit the columns that are searched

  • 1 bugfix

    • #search calls without an argument assume an empty string as a search term (it errored out previously)

2.0.pre2 ↑

  • 1 bugfix

    • #respond_to? wasn’t overwritten correctly

2.0.pre ↑

  • Complete refactoring of Texticle

    • For users:

      • Texticle should only be used for its simplicity; if you need to deeply configure your text search, please give ‘gem install pg_search` a try.

      • #search method is now included in all ActiveRecord models by default, and searches across a model’s :string columns.

      • #search_by_<column> dynamic methods are now available.

      • #search can now be chained; Game.search_by_title(“Street Fighter”).search_by_system(“PS3”) works.

      • #search now accepts a hash to specify columns to be searched, e.g. Game.search(:name => “Mario”)

      • No more access to #rank values for results (though they’re still ordered by rank).

      • No way to give different weights to different columns in this release.

    • For devs:

      • We now have actual tests to run against; this will make accepting pull requests much more enjoyable.
